Off the back of a successful launch night in March, The Racket is set to open its doors once again in April. Held at the uber-cool Old Queen’s Head in Islington, The Racket kicked things off with Jem Cooke, charming the crowd with her gorgeous voice and warming stage presence.

Following that, Thoughtless Jolly treated the punters to some powerful lyrics over delicate tunes that reached heights few in the crowd had expected after fragile initial impressions.

Nat Jenkins did nothing to harm his ever-growing reputation, with a breakneck show that barely paused for a breath.

Headlining the night, Davie Fiddle and the Lucky Egg didn’t disappoint either. The set seemed to swell with the crowd numbers, as powerful sounds were carefully crafted from a selection of guitars, violin and subtle percussion.

Upcoming: The Racket @ Old Queens Head, Islington. April 10
