Britpop rock star Jarvis Cocker performed at a pole-dancing class as part of an art happening in London this week.
The former Pulp star played a live soundtrack to gyrating students at the first day of a three-day art exhibition he was hosting in East London.
Cocker and his band played for hours, backing anything from graffiti sessions to pole dancing classes. He also mixed with the common people as he invited passers-by to jam with him at Shoreditch’s Village Underground. The event echoed a similar stunt which he set up in Paris earlier this year, playing for hours on end for free to anyone in the area.
As the hours ticked by, the musician and recently appointed BBC 6 Music radio presenter tackled a variety of instruments to create his ambient backing tracks.
This week he will be also be accompanying a yoga session, a hula hoop workshop and burlesque dancing lessons…
