Sailor Jerry’s Hotel Street: bands, rum + artwork – win.
Billed as a ‘good place for bad people’, Hotel Street is set to bring a winning combination of live music, rum, merch, film and tattoo art to London from this week. The Sailor Jerry venue will play host to a variety of live performances, and with tickets priced at a very reasonable £3, and even free entry for certain shows, what’s not to like?
By day, the venue will be a gallery and store exhibiting the iconic restored original flash artwork of the late Norman ‘Sailor Jerry’ Collins (never seen in Europe before!). Then at night, it’ll be a gig and dive bar featuring performances from the following up and coming bands:
Thursday 19 April / King Khan & The Shrines
Tuesday 24 April / John Fairhurst
Wednesday 25 April / Dirty Beaches
Tuesday 1 May / Joe Gideon & the Shark
Thursday 3 May / Comanechi, A Grave With No Name
Tuesday 8 May / Bass Drum of Death, Cheveu
Tuesday 15 May / The Sheepdogs
Thursday 31 May / The City Shanty Band
Friday 8 June / Dee Dee Dum Dum Girls acoustic set
Hotel Street will also host a fortnightly Sunday film club, starting on Sunday 29th April at 6pm. It’s set to include a selection of cult classics and rock n’ roll documentaries, couple that with the promise of weekly Sailor Jerry special cocktails and we’re sold.
