My Hat's On Fire

About Me

My Hat's On Fire is a shot across the bows of the plethora of dull, bland indie and rock nights. We're out to provide the hottest night of smokin tunes you've ever heard, from hot jazz to rockabilly, from samba to musical theatre, from Algerian rai to Peruvian inca folk, eclecticism is law, and dancing is mandatory. There's old, obscure tunes that are still irresistably danceable, and usually the era of the music runs through from the 1910's to about the 50's, although there's loads of stuff we play from a more modern period, even right up until 2007.
