About White Light
White Light runs 8 - 4am. The bands are usually on from 8 -
10:30 (first band 8:30, second 9:15, headline 10:00. Sometimes it
runs a bit later than that. Tickets for all shows are available from
Ticketweb and on the door of White Light on the night. Prices are usually
£5 advance but for big shows this sometimes
changes!
If you're coming down for the club then the best way of getting straight
in without queuing is to arrive about 10:30 - 11:30pm just as the
bands finish and some people go home. The club costs £5 or £4
with a flyer or FREE with an email (sign up for the
mailinglist on the right).

Wreckless Eric with Amy Rigby
Wreckless Eric
Their live show is a wonder to behold - polished, shambolic,
loud, soft, funny, moving, long, short tempered, nostalgic, modern, impressive
and energetic -- sometimes all within the same song. The duo perform songs
from the new album, highlights from their respective back catalogues and
the occasional unexpected cover version.

Grammatics + With That Knife + Mistakes in Animation
Grammatics + With that Knife + Mistakes in Animation
Grammatics last ever London show!
Grammatics are leaving us. But they're going out with a bang and a final
tour. We've had 'em play a few times both at White Heat and White Light
so this is a pretty special party for us! After all the bands we're also
going to be carrying that party on with Rory from Grammatics Djing for
us. He plays: "a bit of post punk, ESG and Liquid Liquid etc., Serge
Gainsbourg, Zappa... it all makes people dance".
"Bona fide genius."8/10
- NME
"The blend
of Owen Brinley's choirboy vocals and a raft of prog-tinged riffs is a
source of promise, magic and drama." 4/5 - Uncut
"Grammatics
are doing something brave and truly exceptional." 8/10 - Drowned
In Sound
"Introducing
the most accomplished newcomers to parade in 2009." 8/10 - Clash
http://www.myspace.com/grammatics
"a fusion of
frantically colliding atoms, occasionally meeting long enough to form
a thread between their jerky math-rock-cum-punk movements." - God
is in the TV
"a heady
mix of hardcore, electronics and post-punk rhythms, vicious, visceral
and booming with righteous punk anger." - City Life (Manchester Evening
News)

La Shark + Flats + Chapter Sweetheart
La Shark + Flats + Chapter Sweetheart
Toby (him of Hatcham Social - hence the name) has gone out and booked
some bands for us. He's done a rather stunning job of it too dragging
La Shark back to our stage. They played for us last September and again
at White Heat in April and were, both times, really very good!
http://www.myspace.com/lasharkband
“Flats
ply three chord punk in Crass’ snotty mould. But cranked to 11 and
played with Minutemen’s off – kilter dexterity , it’’s
imbued with a fresh sense of vitality and venom” - NME
http://www.myspace.com/flatsofcourse
"Chapter Sweetheart are the best band to have come out of East London
in the last 6 months, They make punk music with an obvious soul influence
and I believe the lead singer was named after Kevin Rowland" vice
magazine http://www.myspace.com/chaptersweetheart
