An Ambler resident, Pamela Biasi, had her love for New Wave music and her basement museum to the musical style profiled in The Philadelphia Inquirer on May 7th. The article is part of a series where the paper highlights people creating havens for their passions within their homes.

From the article:

With the introduction of MTV’s music videos, Biasi developed a love of 1980s new wave music out of the United Kingdom. “It was the unique fashion and sounds of the British new wave bands that instantly had me hooked,” she said.

Now, almost 45 years later, Biasi, an operations manager for a Montgomery County company, has transformed her finished basement into a more than four-decade collection of music memorabilia, collectibles, and special acquisitions.

“My ‘music museum’ is a time capsule of sorts of ’80s bands from the U.K.,” Biasi said. “It started with framing original posters from album releases and MTV and then just grew from there.”
