Rock Queer is coming

Need another event in your life?

Coming very soon to London is a brand new weekly event that just happens to be in a 100% vegan venue.

Rock Queer is a space for LGBT Londoners and their friends to enjoy guitar, rock, metal, alternative and indie music. The event is taking over the downstairs nightclub underneath Veg Bar at 45 Tulse Hill, Brixton.

But there is a twist to this weekly event. Rock Queer takes place in the day.

Calling on the long-loved tradition of day clubs and Sunday afternoon sessions, Rock Queer will run at its Brixton location between 1pm and 7pm. The first-ever outing for Rock Queer takes place on Sunday May 31, 2015 and continues every week.

The bar will be stocked with ice cold beer and every drink sold is set to be 100% vegan. Hungry? Head upstairs to Veg Bar for delicious dishes all day long.

Rock Queer is THE queer alternative. Make Sunday just that little bit louder.

Thanks to Meat is Murder, I believe he is as well known for his animal-friendly politics as he is for his contributions to music. Nellie McKay has integrated her love and respect for all creatures into complex, quirky and irresistible pop classics. The card sleeve for her 2008 release Pretty Little Head was even produced with the aid of soy ink.  And then there is Adalita.

Adalita Srsen is a phenomenally- charismatic and talented singer/songwriter who has emerged from Magic Dirt, one of the greatest alternative bands in Australian history, to forge a stomping solo career. After
