7pm doors
£8 Adv
James Sebastian and his band are aiming to bring the energy and passion of 70s classic rock back into the modern music scene. His first 2 EPs have a collected 7,000 streams between them and, as of the start of the year, he has been releasing a new single every two months, the first of which clocked up 1,000 streams in its first two weeks. Already this year, he has collected the Best Classic Rock and Blues Act Award at the Radio Wigwam Awards 2025.
Kurbside Villain is an energetic alt-rock band from Bristol. Known for their characteristic gritty guitar riffs, powerful vocals, and catchy melodies, they have captivated audiences with sold out shows across the UK!
The Issues are a raucous, no-holds-barred indie punk band with a DIY spirit and kitchen sink feel who’ve been tearing up stages across the country for the last 5 years. With scrappy riffs, thumping bass, and frantic drums, their high-energy and unapologetic sound blends the rawness of The Clash, the wit of Boomtown Rats, and the gritty modern punch of Soft Play and Idles. Known for their blistering live shows, The Issues are chaotic, fun, and a little bit mental—your nan might love them... just as long as she doesn't hear the words.
Exchange has a small ramp entrance from the street. Our bar and main event space are on the ground floor with level access throughout and we have an accessible toilet. If you need any other info on accessibility, please contact [email protected]
Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
