We’ve got a case of the foggy Fridays. You?

A great night by good friends at Dirty Soup

dirtysoup:

Dirty Soup has just teamed up with Soho House for its first Monday night music session.

Thanks to Cold Specks – who, if the gape-faced audience was anything to go by, blew everyone away, and Faith SFX, who nonchalantly demolished a cheeseburger and a Courvoisier, then proceeded to explode the entire room’s collective brain.

Afterward, Paloma Faith joined Soph to DJ for the rest of the evening, with a complex monitoring setup that involved a red patent leather pump.

Thanks to everyone at Soho House for looking after us, and a massive thanks to everyone who came along on the night. We hope you had as much fun as we did.

We’ll be back for more sessions soon so stay tuned!
