Playlists and residencies from behind the bar at Temper & Brown.
Music is at the heart of Temper & Brown, just as it is in West Indian culture: it brings people together, lifts spirits and occasionally turns “just one drink” into a little longer than planned. Sundays might settle into old reggae classics, while Friday evenings find their groove with Kaytranada. Expect classic house, reggae, R&B, a touch of drum and bass and smooth soul, with The Specials, David Bowie and Roxy Music dropping in like wonderfully unpredictable friends. Every track is chosen with intention because a good bar should have as much personality in its speakers as it does around its tables.
