Another week, another great set of gigs from the Nottingham music scene! This week we bring you a cracking single launch party, a Celtic-Folk St. Paddy’s Day bash, and a massive party to celebrate a new EP from one of Nottingham’s finest MC’s!
\n
\nGIG ONE <\/strong>
\n
\nFirst up we have PRACTICAL LOVER\u2019S<\/a><\/strong> single launch party this Friday at The Chameleon<\/a><\/strong>. It features a stellar pop lineup and promises a few surprises as well!
\n
\nPRACTICAL LOVERS<\/a><\/strong> make retro electro-pop, that would happily sit aside the likes of New Order and Depeche Mode. They\u2019re often refered to as \u201cheartbreakingly honest\u201d in their songwriting, so don\u2019t expect to hear happy Pop songs about roses and puppies; but do expect to hear some of the best Dark-Pop this side of 2014! You\u2019ll also be one of the first to hear their new single \u201cNo Reply<\/em>\u201d, and if you fancy forking over an extra few quid over the entry price (\u00a37 to be exact), you can pick up a T-Shirt, Poster and a download of the new single. Sounds pretty nifty to us!
\n
\nAlso on the bill are I AM LONO<\/a><\/strong>,the self proclaimed \u201cParanoid Pop\u201d duo, who make music so addictive, it could give Flappy Bird a run for it\u2019s money! They’ve just released their own single “Too Bright<\/em>“, which is a slice of fried Pop gold, so make sure to check it out!
\n
\nThe electro-pop duo of the moment APRIL TOWERS<\/a><\/strong> will also be bringing their flawless modern take on electronically influenced pop to the stage. The crafty dossers hadn’t played their first gig until a few weeks ago, and now they’re playing bloody everywhere. It’s a good job they put on an excellent live show, isn’t it? The diverse spectrum of sounds that is RAINBOW DOWN<\/a><\/strong>will also be making an appearance with his self described “Electro-Homo-Solo” pop, which really has to be heard to be understood!
\n
\nPrice: \u00a33.00
\nDoors: 8PM
\n
\nGIG TWO<\/strong>
\n
\nNext up we have BRU-C\u2019S<\/a><\/strong> EP launch at The Maze<\/a><\/strong> this Friday, which features plenty of great MC\u2019s and DJ\u2019s, courtesy of Phlexx<\/a><\/strong>, to take you into the early hours of the night!
\n
\nBRU-C<\/a><\/strong> is of course the star of the night, after reaching critical acclaim with his mixtape \u201cIAMBRU<\/em>\u201d at the end of last year, he\u2019s back again with a new EP \u201cKamehameha<\/em>\u201d which features productions from a Notts all star crew that features NEON, THE ELEMENTZ<\/strong><\/a> and KILLJOY<\/a><\/strong>. So, expect to see these new tracks live, and if you\u2019re impressed (which we\u2019re sure you will be) you can pick a hard copy up on the night!
\n
\nAlso on the lineup we have the hip-hop legend that is CAPPO<\/a><\/strong>, as well as Don\u2019t Flop<\/strong> superstar YOUTHORACLE<\/a><\/strong>. There\u2019ll also be a performance from EYEZ<\/strong>, SAM MOORE<\/strong> and SABRINA SANDHU<\/strong>, who come together to make a bit of an hip-hop supergroup.
\n
\nPrice: \u00a35
\nDoors: 10PM
\n
\nGIG THREE<\/strong>
\n
\nIt was only last week that we had a Nottingham artist headlining the Rescue Rooms<\/a><\/strong> main room, and we\u2019re very happy to say that this week, FEROCIOUS DOG<\/a><\/strong> is doing the same. Not only that, but it looks like it may be on it\u2019s way to selling out!
\n
\nFEROCIOUS DOG<\/a><\/strong> have their own unique take on Traditional Celtic-Folk, that has won them plenty of acclaim. Take a bunch of traditional instruments such as fiddles and mandolins, chuck them in a bag with some good old fashioned Rock \u2018N Roll attitude and you\u2019ll have a good idea of what to expect!
\n
\nSEVEN LITTLE SISTERS<\/a><\/strong> will be supporting with their enormous Folk-Rock sound. Their music is in a very similar vein to FEROCIOUS DOG<\/a><\/strong>, so we\u2019re sure they\u2019ll warm the crowd up well! Maelour Hughes<\/strong> will also be performing.
\n
\nIt\u2019s a massive accolade to even play the Rescue Rooms<\/strong> main hall, but to nearly sell it out is HUGE! The band are known for putting on one hell of a Celtic party, so make sure to come on down and have a right St. Paddy\u2019s Day bash!
\n
\nPrice: \u00a311.50
\nDoors: 6:30PM
\n
\nYours in Love of New Music,
\nSam Nahirny<\/strong><\/a> x
