Calling all aging cool kids – for one night only, come and dance to the best indie rock music the Noughties had to offer.

Hosted at the iconic Wee Red Bar (hidden in the grounds of Edinburgh College of Art), the soundtrack to this nostalgic club night will kick off in January 2001, when The Strokes released their Modern Age EP in the UK.
