ABOUT
The sounds of the UK, along with British expats in NYC,
found itself a home away from home in the shape of
Back to Life. The monthly club night was conceived to
"bring a slice of London to NY", infusing the dance鍖oor
with the best in garage, grime, broken beat, house, UK
funky and soul. Within just a year, the night has
attracted the likes of Idris Elba, Kindness, Daniel
Beding鍖eld, and Just Blaze. The party is always
packed to the rafters and has always managed to
capture the enigmatic energy of a grimy British club
night and transplant it to the US.
