A gig held at Exchange on Wednesday 3rd September. The event starts at 20:15.


LADYE:

Ladye are a Bristol-based three-piece blending nostalgic shoegaze, 90s grunge, and melodic indie-rock. Known for layering dreamy guitar textures with raw, heartfelt vocals, they craft songs that are both intimate and expansive. Their latest single People of Summer—produced by Tom Rees (Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard) and mastered by Andrew Baldwin at Metropolis—marks a vibrant step into hazy, sunlit territory. In the words of the Headfirst Editors, “blossoming newbie three-piece Ladye are lush, woozy and full of 90s indie sentimentality”. FFO: Alvvays, Wolf Alice, atmos bloom.

CANDAR:

Alt-rock duo Candar blend soulful, melodic vocals with gritty guitar riffs and bombastic drums, crafting a sound that’s both delicate and commanding. After making the journey to London, they’ve been making North Devon waves onto the UK music scene, delivering powerhouse live performances and high-impact releases that draw comparisons to Band of Skulls, Tori Amos, The White Stripes, Wolf Alice and Bôa. Their debut release—a reimagined take on Doris Day’s “Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps”—showcased their ability to reshape classic sounds. This was followed by original tracks ‘Turned Blood Red’, ‘Glitz and Glamour’, and ‘Flower in a Gun’ - all raw yet refined fusions of primal guitar, thundering drums, and hauntingly smooth vocals.

ROSES:
Southwest based pop-rock band Roses are a sultry female-fronted powerhouse currently making waves in the Bristol music scene. After making their live debut in 2023 at SWX, hailed as ‘the South West’s leading music venue’, they have gone onto command audiences in renowned venues across Bristol including Thekla and The Louisiana.

Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
