High street cred: The sounds of Ethel Cain, Fontaines D.C. and Lady Gaga are keeping these lot company.
Style
Words: The Face
Photography: Will Wright
For this month’s edition of High Street Cred, photographer Will Wright took to the streets of central London’s shopping haven, Soho, on a bog-standard mid-week afternoon to ask shoppers: what are you listening to?
From a disco classic by Donna Summer to ’90s grunge courtesy of Hole, scuzzy deathrock via Voodoo Church and the ethereal sounds of Ethel Cain, we’ve got a pretty decent playlist in the making. Over to you…
