May is flying by faster than a fast thing on acid. But these gigs just keep getting better and better. And it means summer is closer. So really, all positives. This week, there\u2019s some free music Live at The Angel<\/strong><\/a>, a headline show at The Bodega<\/strong><\/a> and an album preview at Rough Trade<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

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

VEGA BAY <\/b><\/a>will be bringing you their finest Palm Tree induced Indie Pop. Their guitar lines will grab you by the proverbial and their hooks won\u2019t let go. They\u2019ve recently announced they\u2019ll be playing the BBC Intro stage at Y Not. They\u2019re gonna be busy bees this summer.<\/span><\/p>\n

THE CHASE <\/b><\/a>have perfected their sound after 10 years in a band together (yup, i know you\u2019re thinking, they are defo not old enough to have been in a band for 10 years but they have, okay?). The Indie trio bring loads of swagger to catchy melodies.<\/span><\/p>\n

FOULE <\/b><\/a>released their debut EP late last year, \u2018writing good grooves for you to get your moves… on.\u2019 They make proper chilled psychedelic sounds that you can also have a bit of a bop too. A slow \u2018tryna look cool whilst bopping\u2019 bop.<\/span><\/p>\n

WEBBO AND THE SOFT BOYS<\/strong><\/a> have acquired some pretty prestigious fans. The Queen rocked up at their gig in Leicester the other week, no biggie (no seriously, go check it). Get down to hear some royally brilliant Psychedelic Rock.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Angel Microbrewery
\n<\/b>Monday 8th May
\n<\/span>Entry: Free
\n<\/span>Doors: 7pm
\n<\/span>18+<\/span><\/p>\n

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

SHORT WEEKENDS<\/b><\/a> are releasing their debut EP \u2018The Garden<\/em>\u2019 at The Bodega this Friday. After meeting at school, the five piece have developed their Indie Rock to a new maturity, throwing in some synth action for good measure. <\/span><\/p>\n

Supporting will be <\/span>VEGA BAY<\/b><\/a>. You lucky thing, you get two doses of the VB boys in one week! (If you haven\u2019t been paying any attention avert your eyeballs upwards.)<\/span><\/p>\n

You can also catch <\/span>AMULET<\/b><\/a>, who have just released some new music with a proper groove. \u2018Falling\u2019 showcases the distinctive vocal of singer Joe, taking Pop stylings and a proper 80s boogie vibe.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bodega
\n<\/b>Friday 12th May
\n<\/span>Entry: \u00a33.30 adv

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

SUNSET NEBULA <\/b><\/a>are previewing their self titled, much overdue, debut album at Rough Trade this Saturday. And it\u2019s all for free. If you haven\u2019t heard <\/span>SUNSET NEBULA<\/a><\/strong> before, just imagine what outer space would sound like if you could actually hear in space. Just think ethereal, celestial, euphoric sounds. In space. If what you\u2019re imagining isn\u2019t incredible, you\u2019re wrong.<\/span><\/p>\n

Support comes from <\/span>GALLERY 47<\/b><\/a>. His soft, soothing voice will give you some real feels and leave you stunned at its beauty. Having released three incredible albums, G47 has supported acts as big as Paul Weller and been played on Radio 2.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can also catch <\/span>Awooga<\/b> from Sheffield.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rough Trade
