SODA BEAT #5

Next Live gig @ SODA BEAT #5

Soda Beat is London’s first regular integrated live music event for musicians with learning disabilities from the UK’s rapidly growing learning-disabled music scene.

Soda Beat is produced by Club Soda, who runs some of London’s most popular learning disability arts events, including club nights, theatre performances and art exhibitions.




Soda Beat #5 featuring:

The Carbonators
The Carbonators began as an echo-rock band that formed in 2011, initially to perform alongside the legendary Damo Suzuki (ex-CAN). Since then they have honed their own unique blend of Digital Blues, Punk/New Wave and Soul music. The band play rock, punk, blues, soul and jazz all mixed up into good phonics. The Carbonators are a well-established and influential group on the UK’s learning disability music scene.

Upcoming gigs...

Happy New Year everyone!

We have a couple of gigs coming up that we wanted to let you know about...

-----

The first one is on the 1st March 2014 at Powerlunches in Dalston.

It's part of a weekend of gigs called 'Challenging Behaviour' -

"Challenging Behaviour is a weekend of shows in London featuring a whole bunch of DIY punk, hardcore and indie bands. It has been set up to raise money to support autistic and/or learning disabled adults in Hackney play and perform music.
The money raised will go towards supporting and setting up music workshops, buying equipment and promoting a series of shows with mixed ability line ups.

The festival is primarily a reaction to a gaping hole in Hackney council's approach to supporting vulnerable people."

This is the line-up for the gig we are playing -

Saturday 1/3/14
