SUMMER BY THE RIVER: STONEWALL HOUSING SUMMER PARTY

Join Stonewall for a joyful evening of music and community, all in support of Stonewall Housing – the UK’s leading LGBTQ+ homelessness charity.

Expect brilliant musical guests, a beautiful riverside setting, and a chance to celebrate Pride season with purpose. Every note helps raise awareness and support for LGBTQ+ people facing homelessness or unsafe housing – because everyone deserves a safe place to call home.

Whether you're coming for the tunes, the views, or the impact, you're in for a good time that does good.

Bring your friends, grab a drink, and be part of something powerful.

LONDON GAY MEN'S CHORUS

In 1991, nine friends came together to sing some carols at Angel Underground
Station hoping to raise money for the Terrence Higgins Trust. London was in the midst of the AIDS crisis and the men, who belonged to a group called London Friend, sang together to find a place of support, and of brotherhood. Little did they know what they'd started.
LGMC is now the largest gay choir in Europe and regularly plays to sell-out crowds across London.

You’ll find the Chorus producing their own shows – covering genres from
musical theatre to electronica and anything inbetween – while also finding the time to sing at many other events.

The boys have been booked for the prestigious Snape Maltings Arts festival, GQ’s Man of the Year Awards and the famous London pop festival, Mighty Hoopla to name a few. Broadcast appearances include BBC One Show and The Graham Norton Show.

SABIYHA

South London-based artist Sabiyha is putting humanity to the forefront of their music as they explore and expose the most vulnerable and empowering parts of themselves. Weaving reality through their music, Sabiyha navigates themes of , queerness, gender identity, trauma, chosen family and mental health throughout their art.

When it comes to inspiration, Sabiyha turns to the cultures and communities closest to them as a queer, POC person. Motivated by their mother’s story of ambition and the love for their LGBTQIA+ community, the British-Guyanese artist has ensured their history, identity, and individuality are more than present in their work.

With their previous work being campioned by the likes of Jess Izsatt, BBC Introduction, The Guardian, Gay Time, Notion, Nadine Shah, 6 Music and BBC Radio 1's Jack Saunders and having playes Glastonbury 2025 and Isle of Wight 2024, Sabiyha is set for a bigger bolder project for 2025/2026.

TALL CHILD

tall child takes inspiration from the likes of Mitski, Radiohead, Rachel Chinouriri and Arlo Parks, to create a beautifully intimate and authentic basis for their soundscape. They build on this with a brutally honest style of lyricism, that explores their experiences as a queer disabled POC, to develop a sonic space especially for those who feel their differences being used against them. Born into a family of professional musicians, Zha’s love of singing and songwriting started at an early stage. After being accepted into The BRIT School, Zha began their journey as a dedicated musician. Their EP ‘Somehow You Grow’ is out July 17th and it explores several parts of their identity from their disability and mental health to queer romance.
