Tonight, if you’re feeling a little bit NW1-ish (thanks to @JB_1 for coining that on a recent tweet), we urge you to check out one of our sister company’s charges, former Irrepressibles member Anja McCloskey, who is live onstage at 9pm at the Wheelbarrow. To whet your appetite here’s the video for her current single, [...]

About The Kentishtowner
A daily digest for Kentish Town, Camden, King's Cross and beyond. In fact, welcome to North London's only daily magazine.
Yes, we prioritize anywhere central north-ish, like Kentish Town, King's Cross, Chalk Farm, Camden, Tufnell Park, Holloway, Dalston, Islington and beyond - but we'll consider any intriguing story related to anywhere in the Big Smoke. We were featured in The Guardian in March 2012.
