Hourglass Gramophones


Hourglass Gramophones

Although a DJ for 30 years, Mark Somers-Baine has been restoring portable gramophones and DJing with the shellac for the past 5 years. Dressed as the "Irreverand Shellac", Mark will attend your wedding and set the perfect vintage ambiance with his Shellac sounds.


"Music is my passion and the restoration of portable gramophone players to their original factory shop floor condition is a natural extension of this. I play a range of periods rather than styles, from swing to rock and roll, as well as songs and dance music from the 30's 40's and 50's. I am also building a collection of tunes from the 20's."


"As well as our own collection ,we have several boxes of tunes and portable gramophones for sale, spanning these 3 decades."



Hourglass Gramophones have recently exhibited in The Vintage Village at the Festival Hall in London during the summer of 2011 and also at the Revival at Goodwood. 

Come to The Dorset Vintage Wedding Fair and hear Mark's tunes for yourself or visit him at "Hourglass Vintage Lifestyle" in the antiques market at 32 Catherine Street, Salisbury.
