Santigold Interview For Spin Magazine May/June 2012 Issue

“Santigold has become one of the most visionary, kinetic, thrilling artists in pop by following her dreams. No, literally. Actual dreams have played a key role in White’s life since she was a kid growing up in a leafy part of Philadelphia. The idea of becoming a professional musician struck her while she was asleep at age 15, though she didn’t act on it until she was 25, when she quit her job as an Epic Records A&R rep to front the punky pop band Stiffed (who released one album, Burned Again, produced by Bad Brains’ Darryl Jenifer). “I didn’t see myself as a songwriter; I felt myself as a songwriter,” she recalls of the teenage premonition. “I heard music, and I was writing down all the notes and composing it. But I didn’t know how to write music.” Check out the Full Interview at Spin Magazine

“London Pleasure Gardens, a major new 20 acre site in the heart of Olympic East London, is opening its doors for the very first time on Saturday 30th June. The colossal project, brought to life by the team behind Glastonbury’s Shangri-La and Mutate Britain with support from Newham Council, has transformed this forgotten stretch of wasteland into a bona-fide wonderland, ready to host a plethora of innovative, world-class art and culture events. The concept was inspired by the Pleasure Gardens that existed between the 17th and 19th centuries, where people from all walks of life converged to immerse themselves in the culture that makes London great”
