THE OLD BLUE LAST ANNOUNCES TAKEOVER OF SEBRIGHT ARMS WITH SERIES OF INTIMATE GIGS THROUGHOUT MARCH

The Old Blue Last have proudly announced their takeover of one of Hackney’s favourite drinking holes and live music venues: The Sebright Arms. The team behind the popular Shoreditch venue (alongside associated partner Vice) are set to continue their legacy of supporting London’s local nightlife, taking the Sebright Arms under their wing and breathing new life into the long-established stalwart of the city’s music scene.

Having closed its doors earlier this month for refurbishment, the iconic venue will re-open again to the public (only half finished) on Monday 6th March. To mark the occasion, they are throwing a series of intimate gigs throughout the month. Partnering with So Young Magazine and DIY Presents for special nights within the series, the back-to-back shows will see some of the biggest and best names on the circuit playing to the much loved 150-capacity space, with Circa Waves, Nilüfer Yanya, Elf Kid, Bloody Knees, Spring King, Gengahr, Ulrika Spacek, Traams, Dead Pretties, LICE, Birdskulls, Broadbay and Hotel Lux all announced so far.

With Spring King and Gengahr shows selling out within the first 25 minutes and only a few tickets left for the Traams and Ulrika Spacek, stay tuned for further announcements over the next few weeks, this is going to be a busy month at the Sebright Arms! Follow the venue on Facebook for more updates about live events.
