About Barfly Camden
Camden's Barfly is one of the most revered small venues in the country. Originally opened on the site of the old Falcon in '96, it moved to it's current location in 2000. There's live music 7 nights a week, and over the course of a year over 1000 bands grace the stage. An endless list of big names have played here looking for a more intimate, grass roots setting. Indeed many of them owe their success to being given a chance to play here in their early days and never have a bad thing to say about the place. This is because, as well as having the big names on regularly, the Barfly equally supports the un-signed acts. "We want to find the next big thing," they say, and they frequently do. Barfly has been a launch-pad for hundreds of bands who have since 'made it' and when they go back and play it's invaluable experience for the new generation of small acts to perform alongside them. If you're in a band and don't know the barfly, you need to get down there!LMFM Says:
The last of it's kind in the country, a hub of activity for all bands but especially up and coming 'one's to watch'. Without this venue many bands would not have a platform to play off. Barfly, we salute you!
