The team behind K' Road's fashionable fortnightly event Sohomo have confirmed their Christmas Eve plans with an exclusive 24-hour bar license and returning live band. Home for Christmas: Collapsing Cities NZ-born band Collapsing Cities are now based in London, having taken to the international stage. The group played their last New Zealand Show with Sohomo back in April last year. Since then they've played festivals all over the world, appearing at Reeding, Leeds, The Great Escape in Brighton and Lovebox Weekender in London. They've also played UK tours with the Black Kids, Late of The Pier and Metronomy. The band has received a string of accolades, being named NME magazine's top 10 hopes for the future and selling out their debut UK single Fear Of Opening My Mouth. Along with live music from the band, Christmas at Sohomo will feature 'surrealist' Christmas installations, some free Becks beer, and Christmas treats. Called Sohomo – Lost Boys, "Christmas will arrive early at Sohomo on 24 December and it won't be from Santa either," says event promoter Paul Phillips. Collapsing Cities' song So I Said Last Weekend is shown below.
