Ola kids. I know everyone would much rather be somewhere hot with a lovely pool and a cocktail in hand. But at least there are three really freaking good gigs to take your mind off not being on your hols. There\u2019s a headline show at The Bodega<\/strong>, a single launch at JT Soar<\/strong> and a festival at the Canalhouse<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

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

MOWBECK<\/b><\/a> have had a huge couple of weeks and their Grit Pop has got a whole lot grittier. They released their huge new track \u2018The Basement<\/i>\u2019 which got\u00a0on the <\/span>Radio 1 <\/b>playlist as <\/span>BBC Introducing Track of the Week<\/b>. This week they\u2019re going on tour and bringing it home to Notts with a headline show at <\/span>The Bodega<\/b>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Support comes from the dreamy <\/span>CHERRY HEX AND THE DREAM CHURCH<\/b><\/a>.<\/b> If you haven\u2019t heard them before (you don\u2019t read the top 3 very often) it says it all in the name. It\u2019s like a semantic field of words to describe their music.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bodega
\n<\/b>Friday 7th July
\n<\/span>Doors: 7pm
\n<\/span>Entry: \u00a35.50<\/span><\/p>\n

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

BABE PUNCH<\/b><\/a> are having a party for their HUGE new single \u2018Control\u2019 at their spiritual home, <\/span>JT Soar<\/b>. The single has all of <\/span>BABE PUNCH<\/b><\/a>\u2019s classic elements thrown into one epic song with more energy than Yellowstone supervolcano (you know – that err, super powerful volcano in\u00a0America) and it\u2019s just as likely to blow up.<\/span><\/p>\n

Support comes from their equally as talented pals <\/span>THE SHRIVES<\/b><\/a>.<\/b> They\u2019ve had love from Rock Sound, NME and Kerrang! Who compared them to somewhere between <\/span>Johnny Cash<\/b> and <\/span>Violent Femmes<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

THE VARLETTS<\/b><\/a> are also supporting. They\u2019re in this there top 3 every other week at the minute, consistently playing high quality gigs with their awesome alternative sound. <\/span><\/p>\n

CAMERON SINCLAIR HARRIS<\/b><\/a> will also be bringing his beaut sounds to the old fruit and veg warehouse. The Beeston boy\u2019s Indie Folk is filled with an upbeat sound and rather juxtaposing lyrics.<\/span><\/p>\n

JT Soar
\n<\/b>Friday 7th July
\n<\/span>Doors: 7pm
\n<\/span>Entry: \u00a34 otd<\/span><\/p>\n

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

The Waterfront Festival is back for another year thanks to <\/span>I\u2019m Not From London<\/b> and <\/span>Audacious Face Music<\/b>. This year, the chosen charities <\/span>The Roy Stone Foundation<\/b> and <\/span>NUH Cystic Fibrosis Centre<\/b> will get all the profits. <\/span><\/p>\n

There are three stages – The Leftlion Stage, The Under The Tree Stage and The Gigantic Stage – which have bloody loads of Notts musicians. So I\u2019m gonna tell you about the headliner for each stage, but there\u2019s every genre imaginable playing so get ur butts there.<\/span><\/p>\n

Headlining the Leftlion stage are <\/span>HALLOUMINATI<\/b><\/a>. They\u2019ve not played a gig in Notts for a while but they\u2019re back from the land of greek cheesy heaven with their \u2018GypsyElectroSkaBalkanGreekPunk Mashup.\u2019 <\/span><\/p>\n

UNKNOWN ERA<\/b><\/a> will be shouting \u2018FUCK THE TORIES\u2019 as loud as their lungs will allow, which is pretty fucking loud. Their live performances might leave you feeling knackered but you\u2019re not gonna forget it. Catch them headlining the Gigantic stage and get all that angst out your system.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re fond of some good ol\u2019 Country, <\/span>THE MOST UGLY CHILD<\/b><\/a> are headlining the Under The Tree stage. The six piece will leave you feeling like you\u2019ve just stepped out a little shack of a bar in mid western America.<\/span><\/p>\n

Canalhouse Bar

\n<\/span>Doors: First act at 1pm
