In London it’s Denmark Street, in New York, it lies between Sixth Avenue and Broadway. But both locations are known as ‘Tin Pan Alley’, although the origins of the name has muddied with time. But what remains unchanged is their importance in the entertainment industry. For both in London and New York, Tin Pan Alley is where the all-important music publishers are based, and from where their songs go out across the world. For nearly a century, they have provided the world with some of its bestknown popular songs. Even if you weren’t born when these songs were released, you will be familiar not just with the songs themselves, but also the legendary artists who recorded them.
