Maia + support

May 22, 2013

8.30pm / Free entry
We had the pleasure of having Maia on last year, they packed the place out, unless they have become a bad band in the past few months I expect this will be equally as busy. Lots of lush sounding folk Americana vibes.

Houndmouth (live) + guests
As I write this I’m sat at an airport waiting to go and see this band at SXSW, in view of this I cant tell you that they are great live, but I’ve seen them on youtube and I clapped afterwards, that’s how bloody good they are, I clapped at a computer. Oh the cover The Band too, that’s good enough for me so you’ve got no room for complaints.

The Fair Ohs + Blood Sport

June 5, 2013

8.30pm / Free entry
The Fair Ohs + Blood Sport
Fair Oh slatest track ‘Everything is Dancing; has a very eastern feel to it, think soundtrack to Daarjeeling Linited mixed with dare I say it Foals (they’re gonna hate us for that, sorry guys). Blood Sport are pretty gnarly sounding, a little scary, but they’re young and quite skinny so don’t be too afraid.
