Ahhh it’s December\u2026 Wait. IT’S DECEMBER? Okay no need to worry about your xmas shopping yet, for now, drown your worries, sorrows, and xmas fears into this awesome lineup of gigs. x<\/span><\/p>\n

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

Badass, energetic, freakin\u2019 catchy – thats probs the best triplet to use to describe <\/span>AS DECEMBER FALLS<\/b><\/a>. Who off the back of a mostly sold out UK tour – are bossing their way down to Rough Trade with all the Pop-Punk goodness those lovely little tabs of yours could ever ask for. Trust us – you\u2019ll have some of these melodies (especially them breakdowns) in your head for daaaaaays.<\/span><\/p>\n

Supporting are <\/span>SAINTS BAY<\/a>, MOLARS<\/a>, <\/b>and<\/span> THE MOCKING JAYS<\/a>. <\/b>Here\u2019s the lowdown. SB – mega catchy Indie goodness, more than a little reminiscent of early Alex Turner swagger. M – Pop-Punk-y, Emo-y, but still with a fair bit of melody-y lovelieness. TMJ – hook-y, swag-y, and full of beef-y riff-y ness. Y. <\/span><\/p>\n

Rough Trade Nottingham
\n<\/span>Monday 3rd December
\n<\/span>Price: \u00a37
\n<\/span>Doors: 7pm<\/span><\/p>\n

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

This week sees something well special. <\/span>ESTHER VAN LEUVEN <\/b><\/a>returns to live Notts music (post a beautiful performance at Hustle). With her unique brand of Dark-Indie that stuns your eardrums, and probs your soul at the same time – as they\u2019re caressed by an array of beautiful instrumentation and melodies. Prepare yourself for something magical. <\/span><\/p>\n

Supporting are <\/span>JONNY OLLEY<\/b><\/a> and <\/span>ADAM PETER SMITH<\/b><\/a>. Both incredible performers and songwriters. The former, a bit of a king at that Bluesy goodness, paired with a bit of local lad swagger. Plus, some bloody awesome rock-out-ability. Adam, he\u2019s a v soulful singer-songwriter, a beautiful vocal, and also some heart-warming at times lyrics. What a lineup. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Bodega
\n<\/span>Thursday 6th December
\n<\/span>Price: \u00a34.40
\n<\/span>Doors: 7pm<\/span><\/p>\n

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

At the start of 2018<\/span> DON\u2019T FORGET RUPERT<\/b><\/a> played a mad fun sold-out Bodega<\/strong><\/a> show. This Summer, they played a mental (in the best way) Rescue Rooms show. Now, to round off this sick year in style – they\u2019re back at Bodega for what is sure to be an equally mad, equally fun, equally shirtless Pop-Rock extravaganza. Prepare your chest hair and sing-along voices, you\u2019ll need both. <\/span><\/p>\n

Supporting are <\/span>FOR THE GIRL<\/b><\/a> and <\/span>AVA SAINT<\/b><\/a>. The former – equally as bossman at the super catchy Pop-Rock vibe. The latter, really really good at the aggressive but still melodic badass Alt-Rock and Roll tip. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Bodega
\n<\/span>Friday 7th December
\n<\/span>Price: \u00a37.15
\n<\/span>Doors: 7pm<\/span><\/p>\n
