This week on The Boys in the Band Podcast we talk about London's iconic indie club scene of the mid-2000s with The Horrors frontman Faris Badwan.
The band went on to be nominated for a Mercury Prize for their standout Primary Colours album and toured the world - but it all started with Faris stood in the crowd at a White Heat show in central London on a Tuesday night...
We discuss the importance of the London club scene and the community which surrounded it - and how it inspired musicians such as Faris to pick up an instrument or microphone and take to the stage themselves.
Plus - a lot more! From fashion to Faris' art... and new Horrors music on the way.
