THE ICARUS CLUB

About Me

The Icarus Club is a platform for quality, original singer/songwriters to perform their work in a conducive acoustic setting. It happens every Thursday at Dirty South in Lewisham, south-east London.
We exist solely to promote, encourage and generally enthuse about singer/songwriters, providing them with a space for their music to be heard whether they be seasoned veterans trying out new material, newcomers just starting out, and all points in between !
We'll be featuring/reviewing all the acts that appear at the Icarus on here - we won't judge as we leave it to you to make up your own mind, but we might pass the odd comment here and there ! Keep checking back regularly for updates to our featured songs section, reviews and news.
If you'd like to perform, or if you'd like to find out more, e-mail us at [email protected].
