There\u2019s no reason to be bored this week as there’s tons of gigs going on around Notts. We\u2019ve picked three of the best. So get off your lazy arses and go and listen to some great music. There\u2019s some beaut (and FREE) music at Sobar<\/a><\/strong>, a single launch at The Bodega<\/a><\/strong> and an EP launch at JamCafe<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

THURSDAY<\/b><\/p>\n

The stunningly beautiful\u00a0sounds of <\/span>GALLERY 47<\/a><\/b> and his band will be performing at Sobar<\/strong> on Thursday. Celebrated for his soft, unique vocal and finger style guitar work, Jack Peachey (the man behind GALLERY 47<\/a><\/strong>) has recently signed to publishers, BMG. His songwriting, influenced by 1960s folk poetry, has gained him slots at T in the Park as well as supporting Paul Weller<\/strong>. Impressive stuff, ay? <\/span><\/p>\n

ROB GREEN<\/a><\/b> will be bringing along his soulful voice and effortless-charisma filled performance to the Sobar<\/strong> stage. Building up an ever-growing CV, Rob has played Splendour Festival, been named the \u201cSoul Prince of Nottingham\u201d by LeftLion and won the music category of the YCA\u2019s<\/a><\/strong> in 2012. Speaking of which, he wrote a lovley piece on how to get started as a musician in Notts recently, check it out HERE<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sobar
\n<\/b>Thursday 28th January
\n<\/span>Doors: 6pm
\n<\/span>Tickets: FREE<\/span><\/p>\n

FRIDAY<\/b><\/p>\n

FUTURE SHINJUKU<\/a><\/b> are launching their debut EP \u2018Red Dot<\/em>\u2019 on Saturday at JamCafe<\/strong>. The band formed in mid-2015 coming together from a whole range of Notts bands from different genres. The four-piece create \u201cFuturistic Psychedelic Progressive Pop\u201d – a name that we definitely think is catchy enough to become the next big genre (Psych-Fut-Pro-Pop, maybe). We can\u2019t tell you too much what \u2018Psych-Fut-Pro-Pop\u2019 sounds like, cos\u00a0we\u2019re yet to hear the EP, so you’ll have to join us down the front on Friday!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Female fronted <\/span>HEY! QUADROPHONIC<\/a><\/b> are the support for the evening. Fusing together Funk, Dub and Rock & Roll to create something completely unique<\/span><\/p>\n

JamCafe
\n<\/b>Friday 29th January
\n<\/span>Doors: 8pm
\n<\/span>Tickets: FREE<\/span><\/p>\n

SATURDAY<\/b><\/p>\n

CROSA ROSA<\/a><\/b> will be headlining The Bodega<\/strong> on Saturday, as they launch their new single “Simple Smiler<\/em>“. The three piece take influence from 60s Surf (as well as voodoo and eating souls) to create a modern fusion of Alternative, Psychedelia and Garage. The band played on the BBC Introducing<\/strong> stage at last year\u2019s Reading and Leeds festival, with their Reading set making it into the Top 5 most shared on BBC iPlayer from across the whole festival (pretty decent, ay?)\u00a0Get down the front so you can tell your grand-kids you saw them at The Bodega<\/strong> – not in front of thousands.<\/span><\/p>\n

The all girl Alt-Rock band <\/span>BABE PUNCH<\/a><\/b> are supporting on the night. Creating huge sounds laced with Grunge and Punk influences straight from the nineties, their songs were described as “feedback-laden, angsty anthems\u201d by none other than the bloody NME. Check out their Future Session<\/a> from the end of last year to\u00a0see what they’re all about.<\/span><\/p>\n

MANNEQUIN<\/a><\/b> are the final support of the evening. Creating huge sounds from a blend of Punk, Grunge, Psychedelia and Art Rock, the three-piece put ridiculous amounts of energy into every performance (prepare to be feeling sore come Sunday morning). They\u2019ve just released a 7\u201d Split Vinyl with The Hip Priests (that come in a range of three pretty colours, in case you were wondering) including their self produced songs “1708<\/em>” and “Colour<\/em>“.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bodega
