We could all do with more colour in our lives. Especially in the bitter nook of February, with clear blue skies still some way off in the distance and – perhaps fanciful – notions of a white winter in the rearview. Grey clouds, chill drizzle, everything a little drab and blanched. Couldn’t we all do with having the skip put back in our step, an injection of excitement into the humdrum, a little bit of fun? (You can probably see where we’re going with this.)

Next Tuesday, we’re throwing a party with five artists from very different stripes, all bound by a likeminded approach to production and performance, i.e. that a splash of colour goes a long way. It’s going to be a fun one.
