Legendary, Mancunian rock group Puressence are performing a huge hometown show at the Albert Hall on Saturday 29th June 2024, their first live date in over 11 years! I cannot remember exactly when or how I discovered this band, it is a distant memory, so I know I have been a fan for a long time. It…
A Wednesday night in Bristol, Johnny Marr with Gaz Coombes in support. A 2 hour drive followed by queuing in light rain, thanks O2 priority for putting their priority queue out in the elements, it wasn’t even a light mist really by that point really. The setlist The Encore I almost feel that I need…
I saw lucky enough too see Gaz Coombes recently on March 14th of this year perform a one man show to a small audience in Southampton. This time there was a band, a five piece band, the same but different!. My image but sadly not my setlist. Gaz Coombes came onstage and had roughly 45…
New album release date: 05/07/24 FINK, Long-established alt-folk trio, return with Fin Greenall’s eighth studio album under the genre-hopping moniker.

Headline act tonight, from there own website described as electro-punk renegades with elements of punk, electronica and heavy pop. Exactly as i’d describe it. Heavy drums guitar and electro alchemy coming from the other side of the stage and beautiful yet powerful voice centre stage. A great live act! I have seen CLT DRP before,…
Another great night at The Joiners in Southampton kicking off with local band Dead Freights in the first support slot. Truth be told, this band is the reason I was there last night. I’ve seen Dead Freights before at a different venue so knew what to expect, I was not disappointed. A great thing about…
No idea what to expect here from the second support of the night. The stage was cleared from the previous support act, a guitar band, a guitarist walked on stage followed by the folding stands and three boards full of from what I could see equalisers? samplers? There was definitely a MacBook front and centre…
Virtuoso – A person highly skilled in music or another artistic pursuit. I’ve been looking forward to this one for a long time. The last time Gaz Coombes played local-ish it clashed with a birthday so I couldn’t attend. This didn’t clash, the venue was perfect, Papillon in Southampton, the stars had aligned. Ralfe band,…
