SUMMER SOLSTICE TECHNICOLOR FOREST PARTY
Cloud Factory Adventures & Passing Clouds presents
Summer Solstice Technicolor Forest Party
Saturday 20th June @ Passing Clouds
Dig out your over-sized sunglasses, party people - Cloud Factory Adventures are back at Passing Clouds to turn up the saturation and get Tribal Technicolor on the festival season!
Deck yourself out in your favourite festival gear and forest finery, and come and celebrate the Summer Solstice with a dazzlingly fluorescent all-night rave: we want to see you modelling all your megalithic day-glow glory - luminous wings, wellies, Harajuku wigs and all - as we party through the night in the ultimate fantasy festival!
Culminating in the Rise of the Dragon, an ancient Pagan ritual to mark the height of the sun's power, this is the ultimate psychedelic solstice party!

Not only are we kicking off the summer with a heavy dose of rainbow-rave-coloured pomp and ecstasy, we're joined by the hottest bands and DJs on the summer circuit hailing from Hackney to Turkey to Bristol and back again!
LIVE:
***THE TURBANS***
Turkish/Balkan Mayhem!
The Turbans is an international musical collective bringing together exciting music from traditional near-eastern and eastern-European styles and their own compositions, to create a modern and energetic performance with reverence for its ancient roots.
Growing from the intertwining paths of many talented musicians travelling the world, this extraordinary project has grown in a few years from very humble beginnings, into a progressive name on the London music scene. It's members have gathered from countries such as Turkey, Bulgaria, Israel, Italy, Greece and England to perform in concerts and festivals around the UK, Turkey, India and Europe.
This is the first London gig from The Turbans since their latest stint in India and will no doubt be a raucous homecoming - get ready to tear the dance floor a new one!!

***SHAMBOLIQUE***
Gypsy/Funk Circus Show!
Shambolique are a highly energetic and humourous troupe who really need to be seen and heard to be believed. Borne from a desire to make people dance uncontrollably, they recorded their first two demos with drummers - Clive Deamer (Portishead/Roni Size) and Maff Scott (The Egg)
Having already made a very welcome disturbance on the Bristol circuit, Shambolique's first summer has also seen Small Worlds Festival, Glastonbury, Secret Garden Party and Bestival!
This is Shambolique's Passing Clouds debut so come down and show them how Hackney does it!!

***BOXCAR JOE STROUZER***
Dark Blues/Twisted Folk!
A harmonica player, blues shouter and guitar picker, Boxcar Joe sings songs from his travels from Newcastle to New Orleans and a hell of a lot of places in between and, of course, gives the occasional impression of a freight train...
"The only British guy I've ever liked" Blind Texas Marlin
Joe is a long-time friend of Passing Clouds having been a stalwart of The Cakewalk Café late-night jam sessions on Wednesdays, and we can't WAIT to finally welcome him into our loving Saturday night arms!
