ISLINGTON MILL Is Queer #2 :EMMA FAT OUT

EMMA THOMPSON is the brains behind FAT OUT Productions, the organisers of FAT OUT FEST. From humble beginnings in Milton Keynes to a 2 year residency at Salford’s legendary Islington Mill venue/arts space, Fat Out has become one of the most successful independent music promoters in the UK. I sat down with Emma to talk about the success of FOF 2020 and what it means for the future, where the name “Fat Out” came from, and what it’s like to be fat, female, fabulous and, let’s face it, bloody successful.
