"The Social, Fitzrovia. An independent bar, music venue, small club and events space. A dying breed basically. The Social was set up with a simple manifesto – to provide great music and better booze to anyone who fancied tripping through the doors. 16 years later and still run by the original team who created it – Heavenly Recordings & The Breakfast Group – the bar is an award winning London institution. The Social pride themselves on innovative and interesting music programming working with people like Radio One’s Huw Stephens for the last ten years, their weekly Heavenly Social Friday night party and of course Thursdays are Hip Hop Karaoke. They also have other less conventional events like the Faber Social and Caught By The River literary events, and one-offs with promoters like In The Dark or the School of Noise."
