STRAIGHTEN OUT – Stranglers Tribute 

Straighten Out are the world’s premier Stranglers tribute band with an extensive set that spans two solid hours as they re-create the ‘early years’ sound of The Stranglers, complete with a Hammond organ and Minimoog synth; the same models used by Mr. Greenfield himself, back in the day!

The growling bass sound and the quirky guitar riffs are all there to be heard as is the dual vocal ‘attack’ from the two frontmen a-la Burnel/Cornwell as they rip through the Stranglers’ classic: ‘Peaches’, ‘Hanging Around’, ‘No More Heroes’, ‘5 Minutes’, ‘The Raven’, ‘Walk On By’, ‘Straighten Out’, ‘Down In The Sewer’ and many more as they cover the Stranglers’ early classic albums and beyond.

Straighten Out will take you on a nostalgia trip that transports you back to those raw, powerful, exhilarating times when The Stranglers emerged through the quagmire of mediocrity to produce some of the finest music ever written. Straighten Out will put you back in that place!

Borderless Sundowner Lounge

Join us for the very first installment of Borderless Sessions, a new musical journey curated by Shabdhum.

After two decades of collecting sounds from across the globe and serving as the “designated DJ” for countless house parties, Shabdhum is finally stepping out from behind the scenes. This debut event is a reflection of a life lived across different cultures—a sonic map that refuses to stay within the lines.

The Experience: Expect a soul-filling, 4-hour lounge set that moves effortlessly through:

Organic & Progressive House (The Roots)
Afro Rhythms (The Pulse)
Melodic & Bolly-Tech (The Energy)

What is Shabdhum? The name originates from ancestral roots, translating as “sound,” “word,” “voice,” or even “noise.” On May 9th, we invite you to step into the lounge and choose what it means to you.

Free (Contact to reserve a place)
