Index For Working Musik

The Apothecary Tap · Banbury

STRUMMER ROOM RECORDS PRESENTS... By arrangement with Outsider Artists INDEX FOR WORKING MUSIK with support from Sundaughter INDEPENDENT VENUE WEEK 2027 For our first Independent Venue Week 2027 show, we're delighted to welcome the brilliant Index For Working Musik to The Apothecary Tap, Banbury, for a very special headline show. Emerging from an East End bunker in 2023, the band released their striking debut Dragging the Needlework for the Kids at Uphole on Tough Love Records, followed by the experimental Indexe’e. Their acclaimed second album, Which Direction Goes The Beam (2025), was described by Uncut as “arcane, post-industrial Anglicana, with guitars as its sacrament”.

With their third studio album and accompanying tour scheduled for spring 2027, this is a fantastic opportunity to catch the band in an intimate grassroots venue ahead of an exciting new chapter. Support comes from Sundaughter, a four-piece from Reading blend...
