Fortitude Valley is the brainchild of Laura Kovic. Taking influence from the likes of The Beths, The Go-Go?s and Pavement, what results is a ludicrously addictive cocktail of heart-stopping indie-punk power-pop melody and a back catalogue of songs that?ll be living in your head, rent free, for evermore.
Support comes from adults. Combining elements of indie-pop, punk, emo and just a little bit of 2009 vintage math-rock for good measure, adults are four pals trying to find their way in a disintegrating world. Reflecting on how we look after ourselves, one another and people in our community; their songs are a riotous collision reminiscent of Johnny Foreigner, The Beths or Trust Fund, bursting with crunching guitars, speedy drums and yelping dual vocals. Faster, messier and sillier than they have any right to be, adults are a hopeful and joyous noisy pop band based in South London.
Opening is Lanny. Lanny is the solo project of Lan McArdle (Ex-Vöid, Joanna Gruesome). McArdle has been releasing solo music under various monikers for years and Lanny sees them explore an idiosyncratic, deconstructed take on the hook-heavy guitar pop they're know for.
New River Studios stands as a vital cultural artery within North London's Harringay Warehouse District, operating as a not-for-profit arts centre and community interest company. It provides an accessible platform for local artists and creative businesses, offering shared facilities and a space for collaboration that extends beyond mere commerce. This converted furniture warehouse has cultivated a reputation as a significant hub for artistic expression and community engagement.
Inside, the venue retains an industrial charm, with exposed elements softened by the warmth of activity. The air often carries the faint aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingling with the lingering scent of performance, while the tactile experience of worn wooden surfaces and robust, repurposed furniture speaks to its history and practical ethos. It cultivates an atmosphere that is both grounded and creatively charged, a genuine reflection of its artistic purpose.
Practically, the venue features a well-stocked bar and café, serving a selection of craft beers, coffees, and casual fare like pizzas and vegan brownies. It also houses recording and rehearsal studios, supporting musicians and creatives. The space is designed with accessibility in mind, offering a wheelchair-accessible entrance.
Throughout the year, New River Studios hosts a diverse calendar of events, ranging from live music performances and art exhibitions to workshops, educational programmes, and pop-up experiences. These gatherings draw a varied audience, reinforcing its role as a dynamic centre for cultural exchange and creative development within the local and wider London arts scene.
