7 September and it’s the start of a new term… We Are The Sunset returns to Filly Brook, the ace community led space in Leytonstone with its own custom built sound system.

We’ve invited Bill Brewster (Low Life) along to teach us a thing or two about rhythm, unity & musical appreciation. This is one night class you don’t want to miss.

Bill will be supported by classroom assistant Andy Taylor who will start things nice and easy at 3pm.

Maybe book in for some food with your crew and make a day of it as Fumio Tanga/ShoFooDoh will be running the plates until 5.30pm

Spread the word and join us at the best after-school club in E11.

3pm-late FREE ENTRY 😎🌅🎵

SOUNDS OF SLACKNESS

Brian Not Brian and Piers Harrison—aka Sounds of Slackness—return to the hallowed back room of Filly Brook for another Sunday session for the heads.

If you made it to the last one, you already know: this is one of London’s best-kept secrets. A perfectly shaped, dimly lit room with a square dancefloor, a proper bar, and a top-shelf sound system—it’s built for vibes.

Brian and Piers hardly need an introduction, but if you had to sum them up in three words? Scruffy, dubby, excitable. This time they've managed to convince one of the West Coast's tuffest underground characters to come and join them for the session. A man known throughout the LA and SF metro areas as a fearless acid house warrior, a warehouse preservationist of the highest order and and one of the elusive 40 Thieves, it’s none other than Travis 'TK' Disko.

Needless to say, this is a rare opportunity to hear these 3 fellas play all day long. It's not going to happen again in London any time soon. Our advice is thus: Strap in, come along, get down and enjoy yourselves!

3-9pm // Free

The good folk at @thekernelbrewery are back pairing their beer with cheese this time shining a light on all things British.

The EAT THEM OR LOSE THEM initiative, spearheaded by @nealsyarddairy, aims to reinvigorate interest in British Territorial Cheeses.

Kernel’s new Running Porter is brewed to an 18th and 19th century recipe where ‘running’ beers were to be enjoyed fresh, in contrast to “keeping” beers that were aged.

We’ll be helping to launch the campaign on Wednesday next week when we’ll have a keg of the new beer on our taps and some free cheese to accompany your Porter purchase.

Bite The Day led by Idjuts is back in Filly Brook for what we’re billing as the biggest Summer Session E11 has ever seen.

If the weather is on our side then this one will be starting as a laidback garden party in the leafy outdoor terrace but you can be sure it will be ending as something more like a sweaty Dalston basement circa 1999.

Dan & Conrad kicking the Tannoys with great beer & wine to keep you going plus our man Fumio and his Sho Foo Doh izakaya plates will be back in the kitchen by then so get in early for some dinner.

Garden table reservations available HERE
