Southbank Vinyl
Southbank Vinyl
We're now meeting each month at the Bear in Camberwell, where great food and drink options are available, and we can get some time on their decks. Come along with a bunch of vinyl you'd like to play and share with us. Think farewells, breakups, departures, endings and moving on. From tear-stained torch songs to bittersweet bangers. Maybe it’s Don McLean driving the Chevy to the levee, John Denver leaving on a jet plane or Fleetwood Mac going their own way, pack those records that capture the feeling of leaving something behind, grab a drink and join us for a farewell. Grab a drink, enjoy some records. And don't forget to RSVP!

Palindromes (2004)
Palindromes (2004)
Palindromes is a pseudo-sequel to Todd Solondz's acclaimed debut, Welcome to the Dollhouse, with a few of the same characters. It shares a curdled vision of working class suburbia as well as a mixture of painful self awareness, tragically black comedy and social maladjustment. As ever with Solondz, it isn't for the faint of heart. The film follows a young girl called Aviva, who wants *very* badly to become a mother, to the shock of her family, and the community around her. If that's too simple, Palindromes experiments by splitting itself into eight separate parts, each of which involve Aviva being played by someone different (including, at one point, Jennifer Jason Leigh). Going to be honest, I haven't seen this, but I am intrigued. Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ht6ewQlXhY Tickets here: https://thenickel.co.uk/screening/356 This is at the Nickel, so let's meet at 8pm for a pre-drink round the corner at The Craft Beer Co. and head in for a little after half eight.

The orchestra is joined by gay Welsh violinist Charlie Lovell-Jones for the Sibelius violin concerto. In 2025 he released an excellent recording of the Walton on Chandos, so I'm looking forward to being able to see him perform live. The Strauss & Elgar is the cherry on top for me! **PROGRAMME** * Strauss: Tod und Verklärung * Sibelius: Violin Concerto **Interval** * Elgar: Symphony No.1 Corinthian Orchestra Michael Seal conductor Charlie Lovell-Jones violin **TICKETS** Full price tickets range from £18-£29.

**Tickets** 👉👉👉 https://dice.fm/event/537r5d-closeup-festival-2026-w-home-counties-22nd-may-colours-hoxton-london-tickets **The Lineup** The opening party of CloseUp Festival 2026 is headlined by the brilliant indie-dance-punk sextet **Home Counties**. Having recently collaborated with Al Doyle (LCD Soundsystem, Hot Chip) on their acclaimed second album, *Humdrum*, the band is renowned for trading traditional guitars for restless synth-pop grooves and sardonic, hook-laden social commentary. Their electrifying live sets combine post-punk energy with an irresistible, synth-driven bounce that feels reminiscent of CHVRCHES with a splash of art rock and danceable electronics! The night also features incredible support from rising alt-pop band **Girl Group** and the infectious, club-soaked energy of **This Is A Fever**. **Why You Should Go** This is your chance to catch the opening night of the 11th edition of the beloved, independent CloseUp Festival in an intimate setting before these bands blow up on the main stage. With its highly danceable, electroclash-meets-pop sound, this lineup guarantees an electric atmosphere from the very first track. **Watch & Listen** * **Home Counties** – YouTube: [Watch "New Best Thing" on YouTube](https://www.google.com/search?q=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DF3z3z8WwZ4w) \| Instagram: [@homecountiesband](https://www.instagram.com/homecountiesband/) * **Girl Group** – YouTube: [Watch "She Goes (Live)" on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Wh99dV90b0) \| Instagram: [@girlgroupband](https://www.google.com/search?q=https://www.instagram.com/girlgroupband/) * **This Is A Fever** – Instagram: [@thisisafever](https://www.instagram.com/thisisafever/) **Tickets** 👉👉👉 https://dice.fm/event/537r5d-closeup-festival-2026-w-home-counties-22nd-may-colours-hoxton-london-tickets
