South London Music Showcase set for the Amersham Arms
A huge celebration of live music from up and coming artists is set to take on one of South London’s finest boozers.
The annual South London Music Showcase will set up at the Amersham Arms in New Cross Road, on November 22.
A stone’s throw away from Goldsmiths University, this Victorian watering hole hides a 300-seat music venue out the back.
The pub effortlessly blends old-school pints with comedy nights and live music which have seen the likes of Alt-J, Primal Scream and Block Party take to its stage.
A line-up of exciting new musicians, covering genres from hard rock to underground punk, will walk into the Amersham Arms on November 22.
The showcase includes rock band Everything in Mono, made up of four teenagers and fronted by a pair of brothers.
Just a year after forming in 2022, Everything in Mono were finalists in The Basement Door All-London Battle of the Bands, and have honed a fresh live act with an original sound.
Also booked to appear on the night is Mark Butcher and the Allusions. Mr Butcher, former international cricketer turned talented guitarist, vocalist and songwriter will perform alongside his band mates with a set that has been praised by the likes of Eric Clapton.
Fusing punk, hip hop and rap, Eleanor Dunlop aka Retropxssy is also scheduled for the lineup. An active figure in the London Punk Rap scene, Retropxssy explores her journey through womanhood in the middle of the moshpit.
The night will also see alternative rap from William Coimbra plus sets from D.J’s Dee UK Nyce and Flare Up.
Head down to The Amersham Arms on November 22 to catch the annual South London Music Showcase. Doors open at 8pm.
