Feeling a tad down my cousin Koya & good friends Abi, Abi, Francesa & Leigh invited me to dinner before going to see our muchacho Spencer Kennedy ( & the Earthlight Boogie Band) perform one of his ear drum busting beautiful gigs. Being that it was to be on a Wednesday at the Shoreditch House's Biscuit Tin room : I was sure it was going to be overscribed. Although far and away from my usual Central & West side stomping grounds I decided to step out and take the Tube East. Being a member of the zany Soho House group it was an easy drift away from usual Electric club in Portobello to be amongst the Shoreditch Silhouettes.
Fine wine was drunk in uplifting company . Another pleasant surprise was a visit from my buddy that is the Creative Genius Fauzi Abdulaziz Fahm from Lagos via New York Fashion Week where he had just finished a show for his Boss "This Day" Group's ARISE Magazine ( More about him later) .
After a veritable dinner of succulent prawns, fresh tilapia and juicy tomatoes we all ventured downstairs to the Tin and din that is the beautiful sound of the Spencer Kennedy Experience. 2 Bassists, a Muppet Showesque drummer and his dolcic tones helped lift my mood to better heights. Wander when this kid's going get signed and released ? Reckon he doesn't need the big boys thanks to the web. Just a bit of money to catapult him passed the likes of Lilly Allen online.
