The Q have been on the UK music scene since the release of their debut EP, ISSUES, in 2008 on Time For Action Records which was produced by Vic Coppersmith-Heaven, (renowned producer of The Jam, The Vapors etc). This was followed up with their first album. Sonically Sound in 2011 which sold out, of its initial run, in weeks.
Since then, they’ve been regular guest artists on tours of bands including “From The Jam”, “The Beat”, “Secret Affair”, “The Circles”, “Bad Manners”, “Big Country” and more as well as performing regularly across the UK, Germany and the occasional trip across the water to the USA.
Working with Welsh producer Greg Haver, (Manic Street Preachers, Catatonia, Bullet For My Valentine), The Q produced a further EP and album, (Chemical Overload and The Nations Recreation), before the COVID “Blip”.
The Q received rave reviews from the music press both in the UK and Europe including:
Vive Le Rock Magazine, UK – “Slick, sharp and encapsulates the Modern World, The Q are quite capable of keeping things fresh in 21 st century Britain with hugely catchy tunes”
Muzikknyheter Magazine, Norway – “A thoroughly superb album full of highlights”
Plastic Bomb Magazine, Germany – “Cool album with really sophisticated songs. It's been a long time since I've had such exciting music on the turntable.”
In 2023 The Q returned to the studio to record their third album, “THREE”, which was released independently at the end of the year across all digital outlets. In writing THREE the band drew from their musical journey and the emotions surrounding this to produce songs that tell a personal story as well as including tracks inspired by social issues that they feel passionate about – something that’s influenced their writing since the band started.
A highlight of 2025 for The Q was supporting 90s Liverpudlian band Space at The Fleece in Bristol. The Q will be heading back into the studio in 2026 to write and record their 4th album.
Please note the basement is not wheelchair accessible and is accessed by a narrow enclosed staircase. For more accessibility info, please email [email protected]
Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
