We’re delighted to announce that HDIF is returning to Brixton for a one-off night on Saturday October 7th. We originally ran in Brixton for 12 wonderful years at the Canterbury Arms, from 2003 until the pub closed in 2015, by which point we were Brixton’s longest running indie club. We now run monthly at The Phoenix in central London, but we couldn’t resist heading south to SW9 for this one-off night.

The night opens at 11pm and closes at 3am and our guest DJs for this night are David and Franic of The Wave Pictures.

We play:

The Smiths * The Supremes * Belle & Sebastian * Dusty Springfield * The Magnetic Fields * Love * Orange Juice * The Ronettes * Aztec Camera * Beach Boys * The Temptations * Velvet Underground * Felt * The Shangri-Las * Allo Darlin’ * Otis Redding * The Field Mice * Dexys Midnight Runners * Camera Obscura * The Four Tops * The Go-Betweens * Tammi Terrell * Jens Lekman * Jonathan Richman * Le Tigre * Pat Powdrill * The Sea Urchins * Sleater-Kinney * Os Mutantes * Neutral Milk Hotel * The Left Banke * The Associates * Martha Reeves & The Vandellas

Reviews of How Does It Feel To Be Loved?:

“This hugely popular night knows there are few better ways to enter 2017 than with a soundtrack of classic sixties soul and the most danceworthy janglepop and shimmering indie tunes.” – Time Out
“A speakeasy for anyone who suspects that their life is one big Smiths song’ – Big Issue
‘Absolutely the best night in the whole of the world!” – The Guardian
“Much-loved indie pop institution” – The Quietus
“Legendary indie club” – NME
“How Does It Feel To Be Loved has, since 2002, easily been one of London’s best club nights. Its unpretentious and welcoming nature, often fuelled with everything from Belle & Sebastian and Orange Juice to Tamla Motown and Dusty Springfield, swipes away any negative connotations our capital has for being a cold, brutal and rather heartless place.” – Music OMH
“With a tag-line of ‘From the Smiths to the Supremes’ it’s the music policy that shapes How Does It Feel To Be Loved?; indie-pop and soul draw a quietly hip bunch of revelers. Best of all they are just so friendly; no aggro or posturing here – it’s all crooked smiles and handclaps.” – For Folk’s Sake
“With a decade of great nights under its belt How Does it Feel to Be Loved? is one of London’s most enduring and influential underground indie get-togethers.” Flavorpill
