Hop Burns & Botanics @ Forest After Hours #16 - July 2026
J&G return to Forest after a little summer break with cool music for hot times... Musical air conditioning for the soul.
Music
From our early days selling vinyl to our famous Friday lockdown livestreams, music is woven into the fabric of HB&B, driven by founders Jen and Glenn's deep passion for music and backgrounds in radio. From our gentle Hop Burns & Botanics sets at Forest in South London, our rambunctious NYE sets or the carefully selected tunes that soundtrack our shops, we believe music elevates everything. Here you'll find an archive of our recent sets and links to tune in on our live sessions.
