FTWB Presents… Death Grips / Nightwave / Witch Cult – 26th September

A couple of months of phone calls to the states bagged us a tiny show from DEATH GRIPS on their first visit to the UK. Our soundman described it as “Career threateningly loud”.

2. Binnacle – October 15th and 16th

40 Bands and DJs over two days included Active Child, Sun Glitters, Carousels and Regal Safari. NME, Dazed, Le Cool, Spoonfed, The Line of Best Fit and more sang its praises and hundreds of you came over the weekend for some of the newest music imaginable.

3. FTWB and VICE Presents… JME and Kreayshawn – September 14th

When Columbias million dollar signing Kreayshawn came to town and wanted to play at the pub she requested just one thing – that someone else headline. Who else to bring in for such a job but JME, who ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT.

4. The Old Blue Last Presents… Iceage / Eagulls / Coldpumas / Friendship – September 1st

At the end of a four day re-fit of our upstairs room we welcomed Iceage, straight off the back of a lengthy US tour, to come and trash it all again.

5. FTWB Presents… Lil B – July 16th

Swag… Swag… Swag… When we found out Lil B was going to be in Sweeden playing a festival we jumped at the chance to fly the Based God him self into London for the first time ever.

Honorable mentions go to:

Noisey Presents… Giggs / The Vaccines / Bo Ningen – May 12th

Tender Age and The Old Blue Last Presents… Beat Connection / Entrepenuers / Halls – May 27th
