From the airwaves into the room, we kicked off our @tatecornerbar residency last month with a long-overdue B3B alongside the First Light family.
Since then, we’ve been quietly building the next one…
17th June - save the date.
After a year of building First Light on air, it’s time to step into the room.
Tonight we’ll be kicking off our new bi-monthly residency led by @rohan_rakhit at the @tatecornerbar bringing the energy of their weekly broadcasts on Worldwide FM into a physical space!
First up, First Light collaborators…
Rohan Rakhit (@daytimers_uk / @brownswood )

7 - 11 PM and FREE ENTRY ALWAYS
First Light is rooted in a shared love of music and the stories that lie within.
At its core, the focus is simple. Sharing music and creating space for connection around it.
Taking a look back over the work so far..
We’re only just getting started ❤️
Two weeks until our @tate residency begins!
Details of the first session coming later this week.
Thank you for all the lovely messages since the announcement.
See you on 16 April.
