First of all we’d like to thank all that came along to our launch party, and a special thanks to Dark Dark Horse, Shy and the Fight, The Daydream Club, and Ben Hustwayte for performing. It was quite a special night, a perfect way to christen our new venue and put it through it’s paces.
The lovely David Wilson Clarke was there taking photographs, which you can now view on our new gallery page.
