Our favourite Aussie lass played a sell out, all encompassing, headline show in London last month. After we stumbled upon her in Manchester a couple of years back, Pretty Girl has been making a major sparkle on our radar.

With live vocals, drum machine and synthesisers, as well as a perfectly paired support in the shape of Cameo Blush, it was a night to remember and not to be missed...

Space Miami Opening

The fact I rocked up with my mum and took her to Space Miami is classic. It felt so good to be in that place again.

Bass reverberates through the ground pulsating into my head as I sit, blissed out, cig in hand, under a glowing red cube – our agreed meeting point. Scanning the crowd in search of my friends, my eyes glaze over a sea of colourful lights and 90’s Kangol hats (mine included, lol) as everyone falls deeper into the collective groove. A man streaks past in a bright blue mankini, holding a huge pair of flippers, he shouts, “It is party time bitchesss!”. Welcome to Houghton Festival…
