Fractal Club with Saoirse @ Sneaky Pete's, Fri 3 Feb

Fractal Club's debut party at Sneaky Pete's brings Irish export Saoirse Ryan to the capital. Her early years saw her play numerous regular shows on pirate radio stations, before landing her own show on Ireland’s leading broadcaster, RTE. These days, she can be found sharing her love and knowledge for music on London’s Rinse FM; appearing for promoters such as Art of Dark, Toi Toi, Make Me, Half Baked & fabric; and she's also shared the decks with Ricardo Villalobos, a fair endorsement indeed. 

Joining Saoirse are Edinburgh duo Hi & Saberhägen – "from winning Joy Orbison’s nod of approval, to making it onto Tim Sweeney’s Tracks of 2015, to stepping up for top imprints Permanent Vacation and Huntleys + Palmers, these gents are poised for a rosy future" (£8+bf).
