We\u2019ve survived another week in Antarctica folks. Well, Notts, at -2c. So, to celebrate I think we need some awesome live music, don\u2019t you? Nice one, here\u2019s a bunch of it\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

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

Eat the Peach and Nottingham Media Festival<\/b><\/a> are coming together this week for somethin\u2019 well special. First up – the especially important bit, they have three sick Notts artists sharing their musical goodness w\/ you. And then they also have a virtual reality booth. Yup, you can walk down Pelham Street, and quite literally walk into another reality. Madness.<\/span><\/p>\n

SO MUSIC – kicking things off we have the joyous carnage that goes by the name of <\/span>UNKNOWN ERA<\/b><\/a>. How the bloody hell they\u2019re gonna fit all of them on the tiny Bodega stage, I have no idea, but it\u2019s gonna be vibey. Expect bouncy, blissful Reggae-Ska goodness. And get ready to have a good skank too.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next up are Indie-Poppers <\/span>VEGA BAY<\/b><\/a> who will almost definitely have you wishing it was the middle of July, as opposed to this arctic fuckery we\u2019re currently experiencing. Super-uplifting, and catchy Pop w\/ guitars. What more can you ask for?<\/span><\/p>\n

Then – headlining we have <\/span>KWOLI BLACK<\/b><\/a>. The poet-turned-rapper will be serenading the Bodega with his stunning mix of Hip-Hop \/ Jazz and Funk. At Beat the Streets his set was rammed, and, for good reason. We\u2019re sure they’ll be no different. Kill it Kwoli!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bodega<\/b>
\n<\/b>Thursday 8th March<\/span>
\n<\/span>Doors: 7pm<\/span>
\n<\/span>Price: \u00a310 \/ \u00a37.50 for students.<\/span><\/p>\n

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

Spoken word magician <\/span>LUKE PETER FOSTER<\/b><\/a> has his biggest headline show to date this week – taking on The Bodega, with a bunch of eclectic supports. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kicking off the show is <\/span>HAPPYGHOST<\/b><\/a> – often seen on stage w\/ LPF, he\u2019ll be getting the vibes all tasty with his vibrant mix of Hip-hop, Electronica, amongst other genres. And we\u2019re sure he\u2019ll be flogging some of his custom garms too. <\/span><\/p>\n

TEE PETERS<\/b> <\/a>will be bringing his chill pill Hip-Hop vibes to TB. Studying English and Creative Writing at Uni Of, he\u2019s kinda guaranteed to be a genius wordsmith i\u2019nt he? W\/ some proper smooth <\/span>Rejjie Snow<\/b>-esque vibes, he\u2019ll get you all warmed\u2026 or\u2026 err, chilled up for LPF.<\/span><\/p>\n

VEGA BAY<\/b><\/a> – the Indie-Pop dreamboats are returning to the stage less than 24 hrs after they last played it, to\u2026 again, remind you that it isn\u2019t summer. Sad face. BUT – they\u2019ll probs have you forgetting that whilst ya do a lil shakey-shake to their super catchy Indie-Pop. <\/span><\/p>\n

And then there\u2019s LPF himself. If Loyle Carner and Jamie T got nicked by some mad scientist for an experiment, then was injected w\/ James Blake\u2019s mind serum (???) LPF would probs be the result. Chilled spoken word, drizzling w\/ electronic ambience. But don\u2019t think Luke can\u2019t turn up – \u2018Everyday<\/em>\u2019 is bound to get that (well supported) Bodega floor well bounceh. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Bodega
\n<\/b>Friday 9th March<\/span>

SUNDAY<\/b><\/p>\n

ADY SULEIMAN\u2019s <\/b><\/a>debut album <\/span>\u2018Memories\u2019<\/span><\/i> finally gets to bless our ears this Friday – and to celebrate – the soulful genius is playing an intimate show at Rough Trade on the Sunday. The album has been a long time coming, but we\u2019re excited to see his heart-warming Soul \/ Reggae vibes all come together in one collection. And, considering he\u2019s off on tour w\/ Anne Marie, this\u2019ll probs be one of the last times you can see him in a venue this small. Get involved while you still can! <\/span><\/p>\n

Rough Trade Nottingham
\n<\/b>Sunday 11th March<\/span>

\n<\/span>Price: Free, with purchase of album<\/span><\/p>\n

It would’ve made it in the T3, but, obvs being sold out, you can’t go. So, soz. If you’ve got a ticket – see ya down the front.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
