What locals say about SW9
“The Brixton Market and the Stockwell Pry school”
Ola
“It's very close and well-connected to central London while it is not overcrowded and chaotic. You can be in Brixton with a short walk and taste different dishes from all around the world or just enjoy strolling around Brixton Village. There are some parks nearby as well, like Kennington or Clapham Common. I love living in Stockwell.”
Naz
“I love how friendly the neighbours are and a lovely sense of community.”

An Id Signal
An Id Signal started performing live as early as 2006, when the band released their debut album “Known Strangers” via Chisel My Records. Their presence can ever since be traced from school performance halls, factory warehouses, to festive street and underground parties. The band struck out a rather unconventional creative path, possibly hindered by their “technical improficiency”, or an obsession with language. Their music is at the same time unabashedly raw and highly rational, two seemingly opposing traits. While the times had failed to define them, their distinct sound has left a lasting imprint in the minds of those who care to listen. Critics had described their style as post-hardcore or emo rock imbued with Asian sensibility, while fans recognise them for their “soul punk” sound, their enigmatic live performances, and their ever-evolving stage persona. 2025 ,the band released their third album, “The Path Where Grief and Joy Intersect” by Hong Kong's indie music label "UN TOMORROW", 12 years since their previous effort “Between public and secret”. Presented by Brixton Jamm. This is an 18+ eventRead more
