Yvonne Taylor

Sistermatic and Nite Dykez will transform Brixton Village’s Market Row into a street party, marking Sistermatic’s return to the Brixton music scene for the first time in nearly three decades, in celebration of LGBTQ+ history month.

Sistermatic, pioneered by Eddie Lockhart and Yvonne Taylor, was the UK’s first ever lesbian Sound System and monthly queer women’s club night that ran out of South London Women’s Centre in Brixton, from 1986 to 1995. It provided a space for Black queer women to feel safe, celebrated, and party to good music. Yvonne will be collaborating with GIN, co-founder of Nite Dykez - a monthly club night for LGBTQ+ women.

The soundtrack for the evening will be led by Sistermatic’s Shineeye as well as GIN and Mica Coca, co-founders of Nite Dykez. Black queer women present a musical journey from the 70s to date. An Intergenerational history of music that has graced QTIPOC dancefloor culture. Guests should expect the old-school sound system sounds of Lovers Rock, Reggae, and Dub, moving smoothly into the sounds of house, from Chicago, Detroit, ballroom, club classics, and all that lies in between.

IMPORTANT: Please note that although this is a covered market with the shutters down, the venue is an outdoor street-party feel and not heated - so please dress accordingly.
