Autism Rocks – with special guests Gaz Coombes, White Lies, Jupiter Falls

December 15, 2014 @ 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm

| £12.50

Autism Rocks is a unique new event organised by The National Autistic Society, where we bring some of Britain’s best indie and rock talent to an autism-friendly setting – whilst raising much-needed funds for our work.

Joining us on the night will be….

A solo set from Gaz Coombes
A true veteran of the indie scene, Gaz shot to fame as the Supergrass frontman and is now launching an incredible solo career. His relaxed, acoustic set is a perfect addition to the evening.

Special guest appearance from White Lies
Indie superstars White Lies will be joining us for a special unplugged set, bringing their wonderfully haunting yet catchy sound to KOKO.

Jupiter Falls
Jupiter Falls are an exciting young 5-piece metal band from Leeds. They’ll be joining us fresh off their UK tour supporting Red Dragon Cartel, and we’re thrilled to welcome them to London!

Laura Tapp
Acoustic, but with enough bite to thrill even the most reserved of audiences, the cheeky, quirky singer will perform a set of covers dedicated to celebrating quirkiness, from Radiohead to Skunk Anansie.

Ed Goodale
A talented wordsmith and singer with autism, Ed’s debut single ‘Symptoms’ is currently on sale raising money for The National Autistic Society.

Sam Cooper
A bluesy singer/songwriter on the spectrum, Sam is making his stage debut here at Autism Rocks with his earworm tune ‘Autism Blues’!

This gig is autism-friendly; stage lighting will be minimal and Gaz Coombes and White Lies will be performing relaxed acoustic sets. We’ll send out full information packs including pictures of the venue in advance, and will work hard to accommodate all access needs.

Ticket price: £12.50 (Age 14+ only)
