WHAT THEY SAY…
Music Tourist Board
"The Playground has become rock’s answer to Studio 54 within a year of existence, moving to Saturday night dress up and get down gatherings at 93 Feet East, Shoreditch. They book the hottest and coolest of the near future. Getting a gig at The Playground is a sure fire sign of an even brighter future”
Disorder Magazine
"The girls are beautiful and the boys are rotted. .. ink stained skin, ratted hair, tight denim and torn t-shirts, glitter and lashings of kohl, deep fast nights of excess and trash. .. the Playground brand of sleaze glam storms the Proud Gallery in a whirl of hairspray, rock 'n' roll and attitude"
The Guardian
"A hurricane of cool!"
Remotegoat
‘’A playground for some of the names that will undoubtedly mark the next decade of British music. "
London Tour Dates
