Guaranteed night of skanking joy with your social conscience properly adjusted too. Cian Downing – “Don’t come calling me again!” is Cian Downing’s message to his doubters in his brand new single ‘Untouchable’, a toe-tapping indie-ska belter that has become a sing-along classic at gigs in a matter of weeks. Downing, a singer-songwriter hailing from Stevenage, Hertfordshire, is emerging onto the British indie scene with his infectious energy and refreshing melodic songwriting in the style of Billy Bragg, Paul Weller and The Specials. These influences, combined with the insightful social commentary and personal reflections in his lyrics, give Cian’s music a unique sound which is attracting supporters from across the UK. Please arrive nice and early tonight to give him a good Camden Town welcome! DJs We Got Killers keeps the party going til 2am
