New Year's Eve live indie disco with two sets of indie anthems from Parka Monkeys followed by indie disco DJs until the early hours.
Parka Monkeys are taking over The Ferret for New Year's Eve on Thursday 31 December, playing two live sets of indie anthems. It's a long one, running from 8pm through to 2am on Friday 1 January, with indie disco DJs taking over after the live music to keep the party going into the early hours.
If you've not come across them before, Parka Monkeys are an indie rock 'n' roll band formed in 2018. They describe their show as a live indie disco, and the setlist makes it clear where they're drawing from: the Britpop explosion, the 2000s indie revival, and the music that inspired both. The two sets are packed with anthems from Oasis, Arctic Monkeys, The Stone Roses, The Smiths, The Libertines, Courteeners, The Strokes, The Killers, and more. It's a broad run through a couple of decades of guitar music, so you'll hear the big Britpop names alongside the 2000s indie bands that followed on from them.
Because it's New Year's Eve, the night is built to last. The live sets come first, and once they've finished, the DJs take over to carry the indie disco through the midnight countdown and well into the new year. It's a single night that takes you from a live band through to the early hours, so you can stay on as long as you fancy.
