\n
\nHaving built a cult following on the blogosphere and touring circuit, alongside the self-release of their aptly-titled second record \u2018Guide To An Escape<\/em>,\u2019 the Anglo-American duo play a homecoming show of sorts as they return to the city where they began their Folk adventure. Packed to the rafters with quaint guitars and delicate vocals, they create just the kind of ambiance you require for a quiet after-work\/lecture pint. It\u2019s sure to be a show that\u2019ll give you that warm, fuzzy feeling we all crave as summer turns to autumn and college\/uni\/whatever rears it’s head again. Oh, and the show itself is free, so really you\u2019ve very few excuses to not go along and support the terribly lovely RUE ROYALE<\/a><\/strong>.

\nGIG TWO<\/strong>
\n
\nFrom those maniacs over at Farmyard Records<\/a><\/strong> comes a night of top notch, guitar-driven goodness. Taking place at The Jam Cafe<\/a><\/strong> as part of the on-going WEYA<\/a><\/strong> celebrations, amongst others local favourites KAPPA GAMMA<\/a><\/strong> and KAGOULE<\/a><\/strong> will be shaking the stage this Friday<\/strong> at what promises to be a night not to be missed.
\n
\nKAPPA GAMMA<\/a><\/strong>
\nWith their self-branded \u2018geography rock\u2019, KAPPA GAMMA<\/a><\/strong> are one of Notts\u2019 top up-and-coming bands. Signed to local label Denizen Recordings<\/a><\/strong>, their complex, disjointed rock has notched up a hoard of dedicated supporters as well as securing national radio play on XFM, 6 Music AND Radio 1 with their single \u2018Just Another\u2019<\/em>. With melodies that take you from anthemic highs to spine-tingling lows, KAPPA GAMMA<\/a><\/strong> are for lovers of smart, soaring and geographical rock.
\n
\nKAGOULE<\/a><\/strong>
\nAlso playing are rock prodigies KAGOULE<\/a><\/strong>. Haunting vocals, a barrage of bass and intoxicating melodies akin to The Smashing Pumpkins<\/strong>, this band are sending shockwaves throughout Nottingham (and further afield) as one of the most promising acts around. Expect uproar when their anthem \u2018Made in Concrete<\/em>\u2019 is played too. A band who always deliver live sets brimming with intensity, check out their Future Session<\/a><\/strong> HERE<\/a><\/strong> if you don\u2019t believe us.
\n
\nLEO AND THE SERAPHIM<\/a><\/strong>
\nFormely known as The Foncheros<\/strong>, LEO AND THE SERAPHIM<\/a><\/strong> is the latest project of Notts folk favorite CHRIS MCDONALD<\/a><\/strong>. Delicately powerful vocals, indulgent melodies and tight as hell performances, LEO AND THE SERAPHIM<\/a><\/strong> are one of the those bands you can stick on repeat and just not get bored of. With songs that exploit Chris’ natural musicianship and flair for epic songwriting, LEO AND THE SERAPHIM<\/a><\/strong> are somewhat of a Notts hidden diamond. Look out for familiar faces on the stage too, as Chris is often joined by a who’s who of Notts musicians in his band.

\nPRICE: FREE
\nDOORS: 9pm
\n
\nGIG THREE<\/strong>
\n
\nContinuing with the WEYA<\/a><\/strong> festivities, 5 elements of a Hip-Hop Planet <\/a><\/strong>at Nottingham’s Switch Studios<\/a><\/strong> takes place this Wednesday<\/strong> and celebrates the city’s urban side, as well as some incredible talent from all corners of the world!
\n
\nKARIZMA<\/a><\/strong>
\n‘Lyrical Soldier’<\/em> Karizma salutes you with the hard sounds of hip-hop, grime and dubstep.

With influences from Nick Stez<\/strong>, Lee Ramsay<\/strong> and Jay Z<\/strong>, KARIZMA<\/a><\/strong> has sprung back and taken his sounds to the next level. You gotta love a bit of Bass shaking.
\n

\n
\nJUGA-NAUT<\/a><\/strong>
\nTalented producer\/songwriter\/rapper JUGA-NAUT<\/a><\/strong> will be stepping to the mic to deliver. Having worked with artists like Scorzayee, Scorcher<\/strong> and Joe Buddah<\/strong>, JUGA-NAUT<\/a><\/strong> is certainly making a name for himself on the Notts urban scene. Having put his heart and soul into his latest venture and producing every aspect of the music itself, his August released EP \u2018Battle of The Bulge<\/em>\u2019 experiments with a deeper lyrical concept and hardcore beats. Prepare to stand to attention when JUGA-NAUT<\/a><\/strong> takes the stage!
\n
\nMOTORMOUF<\/a><\/strong>
\nShowing what one man can do with just his mouth (oo er) is the incredible beat-box talent MOTORMOUF<\/a><\/strong>.
