Billed as an “under-the-radar destination for London-based musicians that focuses on musicianship instead of buzz,” Newschool is a new regular Thursday night taking place in the upstairs Ballroom at the Dogstar in Coldharbour Lane, Brixton.
Brixton Buzz went along to the opening show last week and enjoyed a night of really high quality singer/songwriters in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere.
Playing tonight is Danny Starr:
Danny Starr is a 19-year-old singer-songwriter from London. His two EPs have been featured on BBC Introducing, Amazing Radio and major blogs and radio worldwide, where Danny’s exceptional lyric writing and heartfelt vocal delivery have found scores of high profile fans.
Danny Starr is a regular on London’s singer songwriter circuit and has played The Great Escape as well as Frank Turner’s Lost Evenings Festival at The Roundhouse and Reverbnation’s Discover nights, who also recruited Danny to their Connect programme.
