Our Friday Lineup: **Stan Pratt** describes his distinct sound as “walking through a futuristic, Blade Runner-esque city at night”. Taking inspiration from Kavinsky, Imogen Heap, and Marina & the Diamonds. Stan’s lyrics are influenced by the introspective writing of Radiohead and Billie Eilish. This year his debut single, “Je Ne Sais Quoi” racked up a quarter of a million streams. **[Watch Stan Pratt Here](https://youtu.be/k4eZ-ow3k8o?si=xDWEujq_3bXii42U)** **EM Kane** writes playfully crafted tales of romance and adventure, drawing you in, then punch you in the gut. Her debut single Wasted Time gained her a place on Glastonbury’s 2024 Emerging Talent Competition Longlist and The Scottish Herald's Top 100 Tunes of The Year 2023, penning her ‘a damn accomplished rock-pop-soul artist in the making’. **[Watch Live Video of EM Kane Here](https://youtu.be/yQX5MmbgPRA?si=NsXxmjb0K7Q65T94)** **Drew Thomas** has taken his place among London's vibrant music scene as the dynamic leader of a new grit-pop movement. Blending grit pop, indie rock and high-energy alt-pop, Drew mirrors elements of The Killers, Jimmy Eat World and Sam Fender with his sonic offering, with a knack for crafting arena-sized choruses and emotionally resonant, nostalgic lyrics. Recent headlines at PDV, Water Rats and The Grace have left us wanting more. **[Watch Drew Thomas](https://youtu.be/ofoVlMPsgoA?si=7Zi7F9l71ingf3W_)**[ ](https://youtu.be/ofoVlMPsgoA?si=7Zi7F9l71ingf3W_) **Leah Wilcox**’s hazy and earthy sound is rooted in a British-sounding Countrygaze landscape, drawing on Indie Rock and Ambient Folk and 70s sounds. She has recently featured on BBC Introducing East Midlands and performed at TRUCK Festival, Y?NOT Festival and DOT2DOT Nottingham. **[Watch Leah Wilcox here](https://youtu.be/-OqEY_ZNJJk?si=IvNMwSX4PBKolKjg)** .Come on Friday or even join us for all three! **As ever we have a lovely discount code for you,** **just quote LONDONLIVE when booking:** ***[BOOK TICKETS HERE](https://dice.fm/event/6939c25c53c27a0001571c47)*** Im really really proud of this Festival, do join us and support 12 stunning artists in a great setting in the heart of Soho!

Dale Gnidovec, Curator of the Orton Hall Museum of Geology at The Ohio State University, will be presenting a program he has wanted to share with us for a long time: Plate Tectonics. His description of his program: Continents on the move - Nothing in Earth history makes sense without moving continents - it tells us why mountains, volcanoes, minerals, and fossils are where they are. This talk examines the evidence for continental drift, why it was disbelieved, and explains how the more-encompassing theory of plate tectonics was developed and eventually proven. Dale is an energetic, incredibly knowledgeable, and very entertaining speaker and this will be another wonderful program by Dale. Hope to see you there! Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.
