Old School Indie - Arcade Fire: Funeral 10th Anniversary Special!

It’s 10 years since Win Butler & his Canadian art rockers released their debut LP, Funeral, so we’ll be celebrating this anniversary at Old School Indie by playing every track from the album plus a few other Arcade Fire faves.

Released in the U.S. on September 14th 2014, the album featured the singles ‘Wake Up’, ‘Rebellion (Lies)’ and the ‘Neighbourhood’ trilogy and went on to top many end of the year, and indeed end of decade, album polls.

The band have since gone on to headline Glastonbury Festival as well as 2 nights in London’s Hyde Park.

So paint your faces, get your masks out and come in full Arcade Fire style fancy dress and celebrate 10 years of this great band with us!

We will of course be playing other Oasis faves and you can expect the usual OSI stuff but the likes of Pulp, The Strokes, The Smiths, David Bowie, Arctic Monkeys, The Rolling Stones, Franz Ferdinand, The Beatles, The Jam, Stevie Wonder, Suede, The Clash, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Kinks, Blur, Blondie and loads more lovely indie stuff that you will know and want to dance to!

Other Info
As you’d expect, this night is about playing Indie the way it used to be, so don’t expect any R ‘n’ B (unless it’s the sort as played by The Who) or crunk (or whatever it is the youth listen to these days)... no siree Bob, this is old fashioned and proud! And as well as treating to you to lots of lovely indie old and new, rock ‘n’ roll, synthpop, soul, Motown, New Wave and much more. It’s Indie the way it used to be!
