This month we’re fortunate to be welcoming Simon Armitage to the King’s Cross Social Club decks. Simon’s poetry opened up the world of Larkin, Hughes and consequently Plath to me as a youth so I’m overjoyed to have him DJ. Simon has exquisite taste in post-punk and new wave, so get ready to hit the dancefloor.

I’ve got loads of indiepop to play which I didn’t get the chance to spin last month so you can expect to hear the likes of The June Brides, Belle and Sebastian, Felt and Hefner. It’s free before 10pm too this month which, can you believe, is our 2nd birthday. Hooray!

What would you like to hear? If you could post your requests on the Facebook event, that would be grand. Seriously, go crazy right here http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=152837071453190

We’re slowly migrating from our old group to the shiny, brand new and so much better in everyway (hmm…) Facebook page. I’ll keep the old group open for as long as possible but please do switch over as there are around 600 of you who haven’t done so already. Yikes.
