Offline regular SP Haworth entertains the big crowd. I missed Ron the Builder's set because I was stuck in a big queue at the bar - oops!

![Stewart Lee, OFFLINE, Brixton JAMM, Brixton Road, Thursday 31st May 2007, urban75 club night, London](images/offline41_13.jpg) We were honoured and privileged to have the legendary Stewart Lee come down to Brixton for a set. He didn't disappoint the massive crowd that turned up!

![Stewart Lee, OFFLINE, Brixton JAMM, Brixton Road, Thursday 31st May 2007, urban75 club night, London](images/offline41_17.jpg) Stewart's joke about sardines, oil and Tom O'Connor was a gem.

DARREN HAYMAN
London's "laureate of sexual dysfunction, discomfort, and dog-eared under-achievement" the ex-Hefner man will be rocking Offline with his ukulele and bluegrass band, Hayman, Watkins, Trout and Lee.
"..the match of Ray Davies, or any of the quintessentially English masters."
- The Guardian
Darren Hayman, Table for One
Guardian review
JAMES HARRIES
Already a major star in Europe, the Mancunian singer/songwriter has been collecting rave reviews for his first UK album, 'Days Like These.'
"An excellent dynamic voice with clever songs..." Rock & Pop magazine.
"...a strange mix of something between Jeff Buckley and Oasis" Rolling Stone
"Raw, Primal... Exquisite" Observer Music Monthly
"...echoes of Nick Drake, Van Morrison, Jeff Buckley, Radiohead and Damien Rice ...one to watch, and to name-drop now..." The Times
CATHERINE ANNE DAVIES
"If Kate Bush died and went to hell, she might sound like London gothic folk chanteuse Catherine Anne Davies. Or, if Kate came back as a ghost and haunted Regina Spektor until she cried and put a hex on Tori Amos.. Basically what we're trying to say is Catherine is kooky and spooky and very good." - NME
"Possessed of a rare sense of resilience and wonder that recalls Tori Amos, Joni Mitchell, and Joanna Newsom,...richly evocative..." Daily Mirror
"Multi-instrumentalist Catherine Anne Davies writes dark and twisted songs about breaking people into pieces and having your heart stamped on. Repeatedly." - ROUGH TRADE
"Beautiful and brilliant." - BBC
"Rising U.K singer-songwriter.. wonderfully sepulchral folk-noir." - TIME OUT
CABARET HOUR WITH VIC LAMBRUSCO and Becky Fury
'Abrasive political comedy' - Time Out
Comic piquancy - Independent
Urban verse with a hard edge- Observer
PLUS A BULGING BAG OF OF TOP DJS!
Including Dubversion (PROD), Editor, Skim, Bluestreak... more to be announced.
