Studio 54

To celebrate the end of the Salon year we're delving deep in to Studio 54, the high glamour night club that defined the New York disco scene of the late 70s. 

If you've ever wanted to arrive at a Salon on horse back, or wearing just glitter this is DEFINITELY the one for you.

Understand why it feels oh-so-good to be on that dancefloor? Leading neuroscience of music professor Dr Catherine Loveday will explain why dancing  to music in clubs bonds the group together. 

So what have you come as?  We will take a tour through the threads of the time with our favourite fashion journalist Paul Tierney, who will show us the lamé, the leather, the glitz and the glamour.

Then, be taken on an audio tour with Tim Lawrence author of Love Saves The Day: A History of American Dance Music Culture.  Expect a curated sound track designed to explore and explain haute disco; the musicians, their technologies, the glamour, and the beat.

Then Freak out as we end our incredible year with a little bit of disco dancing.
