The Autumn Store is Birmingham's night of classic and new indiepop, DIY pop, modern left-field indie, C86, and stuff we think sounds pretty.

It was started in January 2006 by a cat called Wembley (pictured) although a devious mouse by the name of Minty tries to thwart his every lovable plot (not pictured - he's simply TOO devious to be caught on camera).

The night is sometimes a DJ night only but more recently we put on bands and do the indiediscodancing thing afterwards into the early hours.
