WHIRL-Y-GIG SUMMER CELEBRATION – 3rd JUNE 2023 @ VILLAGE UNDERGROUND

We are so happy to be back in Shoreditch presenting our Summer Celebration at the very vibey Village Underground. That would be exciting enough but Monkey Pilot will also be joined by mega stars Afriquoi and Laughing Buddha. What a summer’s night this will be!

Monkey Pilot Plus Special Guests

AFRIQUOI fuse Congolese guitar and Gambian kora virtuosity with UK electronic sensibilities to create beautiful dance-floor friendly music for a new generation of world music fans with both feet in the clubs!

LAUGHING BUDDHA is the psychedelic Buddhameister who delivers a powerful sound with a steady barrage of heavy grooves that amplifies the dance floor into an excited frenzy! Get ready to be rocked!

Whirl-y-Gig is an event difficult to describe and a moment difficult to miss. With a strong and loving life force, the Whirl-y-Sound is a musical heartbeat for a future global family.

“Whirl-y-Gig has been in existence since the 1980s and for very good reason, for a fun filled, amazing night with great music and people it is without a doubt the place to go in London.”(Rock Industry June 2016)

“The intense atmosphere, the diverse clientele, that constant intimacy and openness – this is the way that Whirl-y-Gig has been since its inception in the 1980s.”(Vice January 2016)
