When Lakota opened its doors in 1992, it did not take it long for it to become one of the best known club brands and a serious player in the 90’s worldwide global music scene. People travel from all over the UK and further afield to attend its high-profile nights. Lakota means “people of the earth” and is the name the westernmost Sioux call themselves.   Lakota when it opened captured the feeling at the time and is recognised as a place where anyone from any background, colour, creed and sexuality can come to dance and enjoy music. The music is, unashamedly, underground music. Lakota is an underground music venue. Do not come to Lakota if you are expecting to hear the run of the mill chart music. Do come if you want your ears to bleed and if you want to dance all night amongst kindred spirits.
