We\u2019ve hit the middle of May and frankly I can\u2019t wait for June, I mean May is great but June, isn\u2019t that strictly classed as summer? Anyway, a whole host of live music waits for you this week lovely reader. Alt-Rock band <\/span>ADELPHIA<\/a><\/b> headline <\/span>The Bodega<\/b><\/a> on Monday, three amazing Notts artists are at the <\/span>Malt Cross<\/a><\/b> on Thursday and we get moshy at <\/span>The Intake<\/a><\/b> on Saturday. <\/span><\/p>\n

MONDAY<\/b><\/p>\n

ADELPHIA<\/a><\/b> are the 5-piece, Alternative-Rock band that stormed the country with their immense vocals, thick guitar riffs and crashing drums. Back at <\/span>The Bodega<\/b> before another UK tour, this band of brothers (that\u2019s what Adelphia means in Greek don\u2019t you know) have been on Kerrang TV and played at Download Fest. A cascade of emotion, Adelphia will have you swinging from the chandelier (if <\/span>The Bodega<\/b> had any of course). \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Also supporting Pop-Rock band <\/span>Glass Giants<\/b> from South Wales and <\/span>Everybody Looks Famous<\/b> from Tamworth.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bodega
\n<\/b>Doors: 6pm
\n<\/span>Tickets: \u00a37.25<\/p>\n

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

Malt Cross<\/b> live are serving up a delicious slice of Notts music straight to your ere\u2019ole.<\/span><\/p>\n

Two guitars, two voices but a whole lotta loooove, <\/span>MIDNIGHT SPECIAL<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s<\/strong><\/a> music is honest and heartfelt. Coming together to craft a beautiful mix of Folk, Country and Blues, Joe Barber and Emma Bladon are like Johnny Cash and June Carter – they just fit! <\/span><\/p>\n

One of our most vibey <\/span>Future Sessions<\/b> of the year, <\/span>JONNY OLLEY<\/a><\/b>\u00a0(damn I wish my name was that cool) has perfected the moody vocals of a \u2018Cream \u2018Fender-ed twenty something\u2019. His guitar playing lets loose those funky riffs and we love his \u2018Jack The Lad\u2019 style of singing. <\/span><\/p>\n

Accompanied by trusty guitar Earl, <\/span>MELISSA DANIAL-WARD<\/b> is ready to take on the world (well the <\/span>Malt Cross<\/b> at least). We are loving new demo \u2018Stellar Umbrella<\/em>\u2019 which she describes as \u2018flawed and imperfect like a bag of broken biscuits – a bit chipped and cracked but still tasting pretty darn good.\u2019 Rich and buttery, Melissa\u2019s voice flickers from strength to softness and shows that it\u2019s your \u201cimperfections\u201d that make you glorious!<\/span><\/p>\n

Headlining is <\/span>Lauren Rycroft Band<\/b> from Lincoln.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Malt Cross
\n<\/b>Doors; 7pm
\nEntry: free<\/p>\n

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

One of the last shows ever for <\/span>The Intake<\/b>, <\/span>FML Productions <\/b>are saying goodbye in the only way they can, with a Rock Metal night! Yaaaaaaaaaaaargh!<\/span><\/p>\n

Having formed at college in 2008, Mansfield\u2019s <\/span>DIRTY BEARD<\/a><\/b> are still together and still making music (well done to your Sirs!). Taking influence from <\/span>John Smiths<\/b> and <\/span>The Clutch<\/b>, these guys unashamedly rock out, get drunk, rock out some more and then get drunk some more. The future is Dirty for Mansfield as long as these troops stick around. <\/span><\/p>\n

Proving that Grunge never died, <\/span>AUTOGENIC<\/a><\/b> will rattle your vertebrate with their gritty riffs and power vocals. Formed in 2010, this 4-piece unshackle the rock demon from inside. <\/span><\/p>\n

Not to be confused with the Malaysian Metalcore band Lycan, ouuuur <\/span>LYCAN<\/a><\/b> is from the streets of Mansfield. With a forthcoming album, these skeletal shakers \u2018have more metal than your grandma\u2019s new hip\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

Like a chocolate fondant,\u00a0<\/span>THE SPANGLE CORPS<\/a><\/b> appear to have a spongy Alternative Punk Pop outer but once bitten into, reveal a dark and intense centre (sorry if that made you hungry). They cross multiple genres and do so with gumption.<\/span><\/p>\n

Six-piece Metalcore band <\/span>NO HONOR<\/a><\/b> write with poignant lyrics – song \u2018Lost Youth<\/em>\u2019 is about mental health and has seen the boys try to raise awareness of such a serious topic. They play deep, dark and damn right moshy.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m not going to mention <\/span>JAMES DALBY<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s<\/strong><\/a> 1.5 million hits on YouTube (shit I did it again) but anyway that doesn\u2019t matter, what matters is his voice is like molten (if molten was a noun and not an adjective). You\u2019re probably used to seeing James in his room from YouTube videos so take the chance while you can to see him on stage. A chilled start to what will not be a chilled night.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also playing <\/span>Outright Resistance<\/b> from Stevenage, <\/span>Denacious T<\/b> from Peterborough and from across the Midlands <\/span>A Thousand Enemies<\/b> headline.<\/span><\/p>\n

For a full line up, click HERE<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Intake
\n<\/b>Music from 5pm
\n<\/span>Entry: \u00a33 before 7pm, \u00a34 after.<\/span><\/p>\n
