7777777 night this Saturday

On Saturday night we return to King’s Cross Social Club. At the club we’ve got 7 special guest DJs playing 7 tracks each.

Nick McCarthy from Franz Ferdinand heads an exciting billing along with John Jervis (WIAIWYA), Sean Price (Fortuna Pop!), Virginie Selavy (The Werewandas), Robert Rotifer (Rotifer), Ben Clancy (The Hangover Lounge) and DJ Downfall (Tender Trap).

We’ll be kicking off the 7777777 proceedings from 9pm to midnight then it’s myself until the early hours playing all your favourite indiepop, post-punk and new wave. If you have any particular songs you’d like to hear on the night please post them on Facebook.

If you’re hitting the dancefloor on Saturday night you might like discounted members entry at £3. All you need to do is send us an email with your full name and we’ll make you a membership card to be picked up on the night.

The last time we were at King’s Cross Social Club there was a queue snaking out the venue onto the street so please get there early to avoid disappointment!

Scared To Dance goes to Glasgow, Camera Obscura to guest DJ at the club

I’m thrilled to announce that I’ll be taking Scared To Dance to Glasgow next month! It’s been a dream of mine to take the club to the city for many years so I’m delighted we’ve finally got the opportunity. We’ve got one of our favourite all time bands DJing. Tracyanne Campell from Camera Obscura will be spinning tracks on the night!

It’s happening at Stereo on Friday 24th February from 9pm to 3am. The city is the home of so many classic indiepop bands. Belle and Sebastian, Orange Juice, The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Vaselines, Butcher Boy, The Pastels, Lloyd Cole and the Commotions so expect to hear them on the night alongside the usual raucous post-punk and stylish new wave.

If you’re in Glasgow and you’re coming to the night, could you please invite your friends on Facebook. We want to make this a huge night so your help is needed!

Please note that there will be no Scared To Dance in London in late February due to London Popfest. We’ll be returning to The Albany on Saturday 10th March with Simon Armitage as our guest DJ.

7777777 guest DJs at King’s Cross Social Club

On Saturday 28th January we’ve got 7 guest DJs playing 7 songs each as part of the 7777777 project from our friends at Where It’s At Is Where You Are. In label boss John Jervis’ words:

“WIAIWYA is a small indie record label; 7777777 is the singles club, releasing 7 7″ singles, on the 7th of the month, one on each day of the week, on rainbow coloured vinyl, while swimming in every sea, and racking up deadly sins”

We’re thrilled to have DJs on the night from Franz Ferdinand, Fortuna Pop!, The Hangover Lounge, Tender Trap, Rotifer, WIAIWYA and The Werewandas. We’ve not had the club at King’s Cross Social Club since November so it’ll be a welcome return to our original home.

Our last club night on Saturday at The Albany was our third sell out in a row so come early to avoid missing out or getting stuck in the queue.

If you have any song requests please post them over on the Facebook event.
