On the night:
Comedy Kicking off the night we have our main comedy set starting at 7pm with our four absolutely hilarious stand-up comedians who will be providing the laughs throughout the night. This is laugh a minute comedy by some of the most up and coming comedians in London including Luke Benson who will also be appearing at the Edinburgh fringe festival later this year.
THE VIBRANTS Earning national press coverage in January 2008 by sharing the stage with Mika and The Feeling was just the start of a busy year. Gaining international airplay and having recently returned from a hugely successful tour of Canada's North The Vibrants are not to be missed.
THE PICTURE SHOW are one of West London's most promising unsigned bands. The twin strengths of the Picture Show lay in their cathartic live shows and in the darkly romantic indie songbook. Their songs have already won acclaim across print and radio media (including the Fly and XFM). With their growing collection of three minute epics, the Picture Show are quickly becoming the word of mouth band of 2008.
BROKEN STARS' sincerely believe that the creative act is generous one, and it is within this spirit that they are pleased to present their work. Their music is powerful, bold and beautiful- just as all great Art should be. Broken Stars' primary concern is to serve their songs so that they may be experienced in all their glory. Expect magnificent songs of love, death, loss, hope and fear. Their music is universal
*WHAT'S IT FOR?
Money raised will be donated to Shadwell Basin
How often do you hear people saying that kids get into trouble as they have little to do in urban areas? Well, this charity (Shadwell Basin) covers Tower Hamlets and Hackney, which are the two poorest areas in London, plus, Newham and the city. It helps people, particularly youngsters, to build skills, confidence and self-esteem in a healthy, fun and enjoyable way. Their outdoor based projects, from water based sports such as sailing, canoeing and kayaking, to other challenges such as wall climbing and rope challenges aims to give an equal opportunity to all people. In an overly segregated community the Shadwell Basin provides an important means of social integration and teaches valuable life skills and as such deserves our support.
