The fabulous pop-fusion band President Street, with their unique brand of hook-filled melodies translated into a beautiful acoustic set. Led by Ruby’s stunning vocals... President Street have cemented their place not only as a band capable of reaching the top 5 in the Club charts, but also as a band who can hold their own without the bells and whistles, with just a couple of guitars and Ruby’s voice - and are equally breathtaking in both scenarios.

It’s the perfect setting for an intimate sit-down gig... we are drawn further and further into the mystical and sultry tones of President Street. This is where President Street really shines – writing hooks of pure pop which translate well from their expertly crafted production-laden single release to a stripped back, acoustic performance.
