London Classics: Rediscovering Lost London Novels

The upstairs function room at the Horse & Groom pub (Great Portland Street) · London

Both authors in their own right, John and Martin are on a mission to bring back into print a forgotten / marginalised tradition of London fiction. An imprint of their London Books independent, the London Classics series focuses on the working-class culture of the capital, social-realist works that are both vibrant and honest. Starting with “Night And The City” by Gerald Kersh and “The Gilt Kid” by James Curtis, they have released fourteen London Classics to date. Each book is reset rather than copied, released in hardback not paperback, comes with a stylish cover and an introduction by a contemporary author such as Iain Sinclair, Jonathan Meades or Cathi Unsworth. John and Martin will be talking about the maverick authors of these novels as well as the books themselves, their adventures along the way, the people they have met and the stories they have heard, touching on the changing nature of London and the conformism of mainstream publishing. Against the odds, London Books has established itself as a much-loved, highly-respected independent that flies the flag for free-thinking literature. The London Classics are the jewels in its crown. Martin Knight is an author who has...

The Definitive Rat Pack with Nancy Sinatra

Boisdale of Canary Wharf · London

Table reservations from 6pm | Live Music: 8.30pm “Each performer is a master of his craft...”London’s Magic FM The Definitive Rat Pack returns to Boisdale with Stephen Triffitt as Frank Sinatra, Mark Adams as Dean Martin and Darren Charles as Sammy Davis Jr, joined by Hannah Lindsey as Nancy Sinatra. This is the Rat Pack done by performers who have lived with the material for years, not a loose swing set in dinner jackets. Triffitt and Adams starred in the West End’s The Rat Pack: Live from Las Vegas, and Darren Charles brings the Sammy Davis Jr sharpness: rhythm, pace, humour and that switch from charm to attack when the song needs it. Hannah Lindsey adds the Nancy Sinatra edge, taking the night from classic Vegas swing into 60s pop cool with "Bang Bang", "These Boots Are Made for Walkin’" and "Somethin’ Stupid". That contrast matters: Sinatra’s late-night phrasing, Dean’s relaxed swing, Sammy’s snap and Nancy’s cool, clipped delivery all sit in different corners of the same room. Expect "Fly Me to the Moon", "That’s Amore", "Mr Bojangles", "Bang Bang" and "Somethin’ Stupid", with a live band keeping the pace tight and the arrangements properly dressed. Boi...

An intimate evening with Richard Shindell

Green Note · London

***NB: This show is mixed seating and standing. Seating is limited and available on a first come first served basis.*** Richard Shindell lives as both an immigrant and emigrant, crossing thresholds, that informs his illumination of the human experience through narrative song. Shindell has inhabited a Zen Buddhist monastery, busked in the streets of Paris, opened for Joan Baez (who covered several of his songs), and collaborated with Grammy-winner Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan, Levon Helm, Elvis Costello). Originally from New York, now living in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Shindell is a writer whose songs paint pictures, tell stories, juxtapose ideas and images, inhabit characters, vividly evoking entire worlds along the way and expanding our sense of just what it is a song may be. Meticulously recorded over three years in New York and Buenos Aires, his most recent release, Careless, offered an ambitious, luxurious, full-length statement. Shindell immersed himself in the studio, allowing the time and latitude to explore, experiment, take risks—to play—as each of these eleven songs was given form and substance. While his signature acoustic guitar style is used to good effect, Careless a...

Aretha Franklin by Vanessa Haynes of Incognito

Boisdale of Canary Wharf · London

Table reservations from 6pm | Live Music: 8.30pm “Haynes’ voice is nothing short of mesmerising. A standout talent in her own right.” - UK Soul Review “A soulful powerhouse.” - Evening Standard Aretha Franklin is dangerous territory for any singer. The songs demand more than a big voice, they need gospel instinct, soul phrasing and the confidence to hold back before letting the room have it. Vanessa Haynes has that equipment. Best known as a long-time lead vocalist with Incognito, Haynes brings serious soul credentials to the stage. Her career includes work with Van Morrison, Chaka Khan, Billy Ocean, Lulu, Anastacia, Leon Ware, Mario Biondi and Dave Stewart, alongside more than 14 years touring internationally with one of Britain’s most respected jazz-funk bands. Backed by a full live band, she takes on Aretha’s great songbook with the respect and nerve it deserves. Expect "Respect", "(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman", "I Say a Little Prayer", "Chain of Fools", "Think" and "Day Dreaming", songs built on gospel roots, deep soul and absolute emotional command. This is a proper singer meeting proper material, with enough grit, control and feeling to make the tribu...

Bleak Squad

The Victoria · London

Bleak Squad is a new Melbourne four-piece comprised of true Australian art-rock royalty. Featuring Mick Turner (Dirty Three, Mess Esque) Mick Harvey (Nick Cave &The Bad Seeds, PJ Harvey, The Birthday Party), Adalita (Magic Dirt) and Marty Brown (Art of Fighting), the unlikely quartet unite for the first time on Bleak Squad’s brooding, noir-rock debut LP, Strange Love, since shortlisted for the Australian Music Prize. Borne from spur of the moment jam sessions, Strange Love sees all four members juggle multiple instruments, songwriting, their own idiosyncrasies, and lead vocal duties between Adalita and Harvey. The result is a confident nine-song set of love, loss and lonesome-ness, set to fizzing guitars, slippery bass lines, and the signature illogical squawk of Turner’s guitar. With Strange Love, Bleak Squad announce the boldest of entries into the Australian music landscape. “…they should not be missed live: four Australian music greats with charisma to burn, uncanny chemistry, and a quality set of songs tailor-made for those long, dark nights of the soul.” Andrew Stafford, The Guardian

The Green Ribbon Club

Dublin Castle · London

The Green Ribbon Club -The Green Ribbon Club play acoustic punk music, taking their inspiration from the rich heritage of non-conformism, equality, creativity and subversion that infuses the darker recesses of British history. The original Green Ribbon Club was Britain’s first political opposition party, set up by people more commonly know as Levellers. Many soldiers in the Parliamentary army unionised, they wore Green Ribbons or sprigs of Rosemary to signify their allegiance. These fine people are their musical, spiritual descendants. Bravo. Punk Roth - is that Wrath or Roth…well punky David Lee Roth could be the vibe here as it goes! Van Halen for Libertines heads! Deerbow - energised and energetic young band with an Arctic Monkeys meets Muse dynamic indie rock style. Peacock - lively and expressive funky rockers…orcrocking funkateers- either way a spiffing way to kick off the night. Loose Cannons - Loose Cannons is an originals Indie Rock band based in London, with music that ranges from dark melancholy to catchy upbeat. They channel 90s rock with a modern twist and sing about the complexity, nuances, pain and joy of life’s experiences…
