The Old Blue Last

The Old Blue Last, Great Eastern Street, London. The Old Blue Last is a pub and live music venue in East London run by Vice. It hosts ‘forward-thinking’ bands and DJs every night (usually for free) and is the epitome of shoreditch cool, always full of hip twenty somethings. The band in my photos below is The History of Apple Pie.

The Stow Festival

The Stow Festival, Walthamstow, London. The very first Stow Festival took place at the end of September, showcasing local musical talent in many venues across E17. Here, Wagon Tales and Peppercornrent performed at Ye Olde Rose & Crown. I moved to Walthamstow a year ago and like most E17ers love the community spirit and the amount of arts and creative events that take place in the area including the annual E17 Art Trail and supporting the ongoing campaign to save Walthamstow Cinema. Roll on next years festival…for more info go here.
