East London Line Music Festival To Connect Dalston and New Cross

A brand new multi-venue festival is coming to the East London Line this September.

Sound Tracks is aimed at connecting Dalston and Shoreditch to New Cross by opening venues in all three East London Line destinations.

Cafe OTO and the Dalston Eastern Curve Garden are both involved, hosting gigs for festival goers from 7pm on the 17th of September. 

Shabaka & Sons of Kemet, Elan Tamara and The Kemistry plus more will be playing in Dalston. Fantastic Mr Fox, Age of Consent and This is My TV will be playing in Shoreditch. For the rest of the line up see here. 

Concrete in Shoreditch is also a venue on the list, with venues being chosen for their proximity to the East London Line stations. 

Wristbands will allow attendees to access these venues, but also the East London Line will be hosting a special 'Travelling Stage' of its own. In the spirit of the Black Cab Sessions and La Blogotheque, a series of upcoming and unsigned acts will be performing live in the unique setup of the London Overground train carriages - connecting the other stages.

Wristbands are £12.50 (£8.50 early bird), and if you buy in advance you'll have to decide where you want to collect.

There are 3 collection points for wristbands; Dalston Eastern Curve Garden, Concrete in Shoreditch, or the Amersham Arms in New Cross.
