Concrete and Glass

http://www.concreteandglass.co.uk/
Concrete and Glass, an innovative music and contemporary art event will take over 30 alternative-site exhibitions, 18 music venues, and numerous local gallery spaces in the renowned creative cauldron of London's Shoreditch on Thursday 2nd & Friday 3rd of October by bringing together the cream of new, original and established bands and artists.

With 18 venues taking part in Concrete and Glass, the musical line up is as diverse as each setting, with well-established names nestling next to the most exciting up-and-coming acts.

The line-up has been curated by Tom Baker - who under his Eat Your Own Ears banner has promoted the likes of Danger Mouse (aka Gnarls Barkley) Four Tet, Bloc Party, Peaches, The Kaiser Chiefs, Maximo Park, Mercury Award Winners Franz Ferdinand and Antony and The Johnsons. He currently promotes Battles, Animal Collective, Bat For Lashes, Jamie T and Kate Nash in London and also books and promotes the Field Day and Underage Festivals.
The art strand is being overseen by Flora Fairbairn; an established curator, who routinely collaborates with architects and developers to transform disused spaces into thriving exhibition spaces. Concrete and Glass will feature over 30 projects in disused warehouses, outdoor spaces and empty shops in collaboration with curators, artists and galleries at it's centrepiece, Heart of Glass; a project organised in association with the Contemporary Art Society.
