They soon established as one of the foremost performance collectives that London had seen for almost two decades with over 3000 database members and such luminaries as the Brit award winning Jamie T, Rufus Hound, Lucy Rose, Alex Zane, James Morrison, Shazia Mirza and Simon Amstell passing through their ranks.
In 2008 a prototype venue was established for the Native Tongue brand in Surrey. In 2010 they continued this success with a dedicated London base in Smithfield, East London and in April 2013 an enhanced larger site in the prestigious Derby Square, Epsom.
Currently the company is preparing for the opening of a new flagship venue in London's Soho.
