After a day admiring steam powered tractors, sheep shearing and amusing vegetable shapes at the fabulous LAMBETH COUNTRY SHOW up the road, what better way can there be to continue the fun than joining us at our unofficial after-party at the Albert? We'll be serving up two fantastic bands, with chaotic shanties and jigs from SANJURO and stunning, luscious electro-pop from headliners MORTON VALENCE. And it's free all night.
LIVE ONSTAGE:
MORTON VALENCE
Serving up full-fat slices of hook-rich electro-pop soaked in Cabaret-era decadence with a sensational live show to match, Morton Valence are one of the best bands we've ever put on at Offline.
The band's debut album, 'Bob and Veronica Ride Again' has picked up rave reviews, and they're one of the few bands nominated for the Storm the Charts campaign, so make sure you get down to Brixton for this one!
"A rich treasure trove of songs" **** Q Magazine
"...released possibly the best single of the past decade, Sailors" BBC
"alluring and seductive" **** Uncut
"Spectacular" Drowned in Sound
"a full fat slice of hook rich electro-pop" BBC
"One of the year's loveliest albums" Artrocker
SANJURO
A lurching feast of Flamenco to Irish jigs mixed up with crowd-rousing waltzes, shanties and ballads.
"Folk rock gypsy French band with an accordion player and a fiddle who are quite clearly bonkers."
"Jumping up and down Romany madness... delightful!"
MULTIMEDIA
Original photos, old footage, pop 45 sleeves, and more.
DJS!
We'll also have a full crew of hard-drinking Offline regulars throwing down a top selection of tunes, including:
LANG & LOPEZ (The Actionettes)
A glorious celebration of 50s, 60s, Motown and obscure dance tunes from the Actionettes' very own Glamour Queens of Vintage Vinyl.
EDITOR (urban75)
An ale-fuelled onslaught of ska, punk, rock'n'roll, big band, rockabilly, Mrs Mills & Liberace in a floor stomping package proving that drinking'n'DJing can be a perilous trade.
NIPSLA (Falling over studios)
Packing more pop than a Rice Krispies factory, Nipsla's DJ bag is a veritable jumble sale of joy, overflowing with indie, dance, electro and party tunes.
BARON BOBBY BAUHAUS (charcoal soul)
More mysterious than Robert Smith's eyeliner bag, Bobby gets dancefloors rocking with quirky, darkside indie-pop and kohl-smudging breakbeats.
