Don’t miss Smart Air's Gus Tate as he casts Cheers Gulou into a comedic frenzy with his alchemic command of audiences and clean air.

Fri, Nov 14: Wild Beasts
From years of honing their quirky waltz vibes to perfection, and recently including the twists and turns of synthesizers in their repertoire, Wild Beasts has grown into quite the formidable British-infused musical beast indeed.
Fri, Nov 14: Tour De French House
Check out this epic tribute to French House music, featuring a combination of great live music acts (Luv Plastic, Gina, John Ellis) and performing alongside some saucy DJ's like Vincent Suede, PFAC, Juhstynn and Half & Half. This along with some visual insanity from Youth Video will put you in the dancing spirit in ways your body forgot was possible. For fans of Justice, Kavinsky, Fred Faulk and of course Daft Punk.
Fri, Nov 14: Funk Fever's Maovember Moustache Party
This Friday at Migas will offer some feel good funky tunes, compiled by DJs Bite-Size Buddha, Perman and Wesley, but also for a great cause, the Maovember charity. Despite our initial thoughts that Maovember was just about channeling the creepy energy of classic male porn stars, it actually promotes awareness of and research funds for serious health issues around the globe. They will be providing wigs and mustaches for fun photo opportunities, along great drink specials. This year, the proceeds will go to Orbis, an organization that is focused on preventing and treating blindness. So this is your easy and fun way to get involved this Friday. Go here for more info.

He will be joined by Scotland’s Konx-om-Pax, who’s occult sensibilities mixed with hyperreal synth textures will take you on a transformative journey to the technicolor chapel of the Golden Dawn and beyond.
Fri, Nov 14: Agua's 6th Anniversary Party

The Sweet 6 year anniversary will be a night filled with flowing cava, wine, gin and vodka cocktails, and musical beats featured by Alex from Mosto. They have very limited space so reserve now.
