A tenth birthday party (woop woop!), cross-genre brilliance, plus monumental pop choruses. Sick as always Notts x
MONDAY
It’s Acoustic Rooms’ tenth birthday! They’re officially in double figures, so before they stop talking to us cos they’re too busy smoking fags behind the bike shed, you should probs pop down and experience their killer celebratory lineup!
As always, lots of acoustic (funny that) brilliance. CHLOE RODGERS kicks things off with her hauntingly beautiful vibes, JIMI MACK is up with his wise, almost stoic Folk, and ALEX MILNE is ready to serenade your ear drums with her stunning voice. ADAM PETER SMITH – ya know, one of the most disgustingly talented humans you’ll hear, will bring his Jazz-y Folk-y niceness, then AR hosts LAURIE ILLINGWORTH AND SAM HEATON have got a super special collab in the works (ooh). Oh, and then there’s the incredible voice from MOLLIE RALPH, the bluesy badassery of JONNY OLLEY, plus the indie sickness of JACQUE SEVIOUR.

FAST CAR TO FLORENCE – kings of the super duper catchy, in fact, more than that – borderline disgustingly ‘why am I still singing this in the shower 8 days since I last heard it’ catchy Pop-Rock anthems, are at Bodega this week for a banger of a headline show.
Oh, and a sick support lineup too. THE FINE ART SOCIETY are up first sharing all their stories of lonely men on Station Street (cough, listen to their latest song, cough), and then MY PET FAUXES dazzle with all the super sweet monumental Pop-Rock choruses you could ever ask for. SO GOOD.
