Plastic Factory's 2'nd Bday

Plastic Factory turns 2! To celebrate, we’ll be joined by friends old and new in the form of Egyptian Blue, Slow Fiction & The Itch PLUS a special DJ set from Mercury Award winning legends, English Teacher.

Slow Fiction

Forming out of a tapestry of hometown friendships and college connections, Slow Fiction emerged into a music scene fragmented by lockdowns. They grew closer as restrictions dropped away and audiences grew, using the shifts to experiment with their material and reach more expansive and formidable levels. The final product is a landmine of sound, inspired by the raw, sweeping fuzz of the likes of Sonic Youth and The Jesus and Mary Chain. Familiar elements of noughties era guitar shine through, confronted with cutting contemporary angst to create a nostalgic yet intoxicating sound.

The Itch

Having first appeared on the capital’s live circuit at the tail-end of 2023, The Itch’s pairing of undulating dancefloor fillers and disenchanted pop songwriting saw them quickly become a name that was passed between gig goers despite a notable absence from social media, as word-of-mouth spread about an act channeling the stadium rock sensibilities of REM through a modern dance filter.

Presented by AEG.

This is an 18+ event.
