"Upbeat Black Keys style garage-blues-rock with head-banging heft from The Family Rain - picture the best of the noughties indie years left out to mature - plus thundering dance punk from Breakfast Records faves Frank & Beans on appetiser duty. Big FFO: The Hives, Death From Above 1979, We Are Scientists, The White Stripes."

A
gig
held at Crofters Rights
on Friday 15th December. The event starts at 19:30.
Velvet Echoes & Extra Terrestrial Promotions are proud to present The Family Rain - truly a band of brothers, and a fierce force to be reckoned with. Consummating raucous riffs, thunderous drums, booming basslines and soaring vocals, their 60s garage infused sound leaves head-banging an unnegotiable undertaking. Born in Bath and ready to take on Bristol with their equally stellar yet savagely produced sounds, this is an act not to miss.
The Family Rain
Three brothers from Bath make the trip to Stokes Croft on elongated horses to sell snake oil to the masses.
Sharp tongues, angular riffs and cutting beats included.
Saddle up! and enjoy your journey through The Family Rain universe.
Frank and Beans
Beans and franks or franks and beans, also known regionally by the brand name Beanee Weenees, is a dish that can be a main course or a side. Often served in informal settings, it is similar to pork and beans, but substitutes hot dogs for pork. July 13 is National Beans 'n' Franks Day in the United States.
But this ain't no American side dish from the summer this is Frank and Beans the Fuzz duo from Ireland.
