The Bongolian
Who: A fusion of latin flavoured jazz and boogaloo
When: 2nd February
Where: The Night Owl
Tickets: £7
Lovers of 60s and jazz listen up, The Bongolian is here to take you on a jazz-funk odyssey like no other at Digbeth’s soul and retro nightclub. Expect a cosmic blend of 60s, jazz, funk and a helluva lot of bongos.
The Murder Capital + The Cosmics + Bad Girlfriend
Who: Dublin’s newest musical answer
When: 5th February
Where: The Sunflower Lounge
Tickets: £6
Heavily dubbed as Dublin’s newest (and best) alt-rock band, even before they’d even made a release. The bristly, post punk jams, driven by a desire to change. Supports hail from two of Birmingham’s best punk trios: the psychedelic furore of The Cosmics and the trashy and tenacious Bad Girlfriend.
Silvershores + Brain Food + Sorry Grace
Who: Expansive soundscapes and psychedelic indie rock.
When: 7th February
Where: The Night Owl
Tickets: Free entry
PR, events and social media by day, lover of all things geeky and retro. Can often be found scribbling notes at the back of the gig.
