British Sea Power, Art Brut, Mando Diao and Dogs have all been confirmed for London's first all-night indoor festival, The Insomniacs Ball, which will take place at the SEOne Club beneath London Bridge station on 13 Apr, just ahead of the Easter holiday weekend. The event will run from 8pm to 6am and will feature three live stages and a stack of great bands and DJs.
The event is a collaboration between London club and gig promoters Kill All Hippies and Stylish Riots. Andy Peyton of the latter told CMU: "The summertime festival scene has taught us that there is a growing appetite for large and eclectic live music bills in unusual settings. This is certainly one of those. We've worked hard to put together an unbeatable bill at a decent price, in a comfortable and exciting venue. The morning after is a bank holiday, which is nice, and by the time you come outside the trains will be running again."
The full line up for the event looks like this:
Room 1: British Sea Power, Mando Diao, Battle, New Rhodes, The Pipettes
Room 2: (Xfm Remix Room): Eddy Temple-Morris, Mary-Anne Hobbs
Room 3: Art Brut, Dogs, The Rifles, Komakino
Room 4 (Frog): Vincent Vincent and the Villains, Black Wire, Cazals, Dustins Bar, Mitzvah, The Holloways, Captain Black
Room 5 (VIP Arena): White Heat DJs Matty and Olly plus guests.
