Wap Wap Wow Acoustic Set

 
Last Friday, Platform invited the very talented ‘Wap Wap Wow’ to record a live acoustic set in our specially decorated event space.

The band played a beautiful acoustic set around the Platform Christmas Tree whilst drinking cups of tea. With the voices and cellos echoing around the space, mesmorising the lucky few who were there to watch.

Over Christmas they will be heading down to Oxford, to record at their friends Foals' house, with producer Hugo Manuel from the band Jonquil. Keep an eye out for more exciting gigs coming next year.
