Uptown @ Boogaloo
Nov 27 @ 10:00 pm – Nov 28 @ 2:00 am

10pm – 2am

t the northern section of an urban area
adj. high-class, of quality, distinction and note

UpTown brings a blend of high quality music for dancing to North London’s favourite juke box bar. With an eye to the dancefloor and an ear to some of the finest music produced over the last several decades, Djs Trailer Trish and Johnny Klash set the perfect tone for a Friday night out.
UpTown brings you back to when kids in the North of England spun the night away to the sounds of Detroit and Philly; when Motown ruled the charts; when rock and roll meant ‘rock and roll’; when the sounds of the American South met the big city clubs and everyone was ‘doin the popcorn’; when Studio 54 bumped to brave new beats; when Debbie Harry met Fab 5 Freddy; when UK indie ruled the world; and when pop music was good music

Red was featured in Timeout Special as one of the top alternative djs in London… come see for yourself.. Think polka dots, braces, high trousers and mini skirt

“The joy of this night is that red balances both rare and known vintage records perfectly which means there is never a lull in the evening, never have we been to a night before where the dance floor is packed from start to finnish” HOXTON RADIO
