Reviews of How Does It Feel To Be Loved?:
"This hugely popular night knows there are few better ways to enter
the new year than with a soundtrack of classic sixties soul and the
most danceworthy janglepop and shimmering indie tunes." - Time
Out
“A speakeasy for anyone who suspects that their life is one big
Smiths song' - Big Issue
'Absolutely the best night in the whole of the world!” - The
Guardian
“Much-loved indie pop institution” - The Quietus
“Legendary indie club” - NME
TICKET AND BOOK COMBO TICKET
This ticket includes a copy of my novel The Tunnels, which you can
pick up on the night. The Tunnels is a "suburban science fantasy
ghost story", which will hopefully appeal to fans of Douglas Adams,
Kurt Vonnegut, Martin Millar and Robert Rankin. It's published by
Secret Name Books on February 26th, 2026, but we're selling a few
copies in advance. More info about the book here -
www.secretname.co.uk. The book is priced £9.99.
