- The Soup Kitchen (with bands!)

Saturday February 2nd @ The Grosvenor in Stockwell (just around the corner from Brixton Jamm).

It will be or £5 on the door. And we'll be starting at 8pm.

After the bands (from 11pm to 2am) we will be running one of our Soup Kitchen nights and it will be free entry for any late comers who wanna do some Saturday night dancing - We will have guest DJs for this - details to follow!

Coming down from Sheffield for a rare London show we have Smokers Die Younger who have been described as an astounding, soul-embracing band you dreamed you were discovering throughout your teenage years.

"chaotic, messy, exciting, amateurish and extremely endearing" - Rough Trade Shops

Coming over all the way from Iceland for a whirlwind visit. This is their only London show of their brief stay. There are only 300,000 people who live in Iceland, 80% believe in elves. Dýrðin brings the mythologies of elves, comic book heroes and Star Trek to life with their edgy pop.

Again from Sheffield we have another great little band, this being Champion Kickboxer. Their recent EP - 'Candle Power' has been a firm favourite these past few months. A feast of beautifully organic pop music a little like the Super Furry Animals with great vocal harmonies and a melancholic air that drifts through all the songs. A must see band.

"The Bridport Dagger are a bass-less 3-piece who craft darkly hypnotic songs that conjure up images of the past without ever falling into the realms of nostalgia" so says Maps magazine.

Guest DJ's during the night:

You must go to this. Chamion Kickboxer are great. Smokers Die Younger were jaw-droppingly good last night. Really, just go.
