"Thankfully the only thing this 4 piece have in common with Craig David is Southampton. They've got a great feel, more Stone Roses than Arctic Monkeys but with funny, touching lyrics. Great stuff. 5/5" Rhythm Magazine.
DRAGONFLIES - TOP support from Bristol's finest IndiePoppers'DRAGONFLIES' who played a blinder recently supporting PHANTOM LIMB !!
Dragonflies are a Bristol based four piece with a lot going for them; melodic songwriting with intelligent lyrics and great hair, But there's more to the The Dragonflies than clever lyrics; musicly they're clever too and have a lot to offer - Bristol 24/7
They notched up the quality with a very strong set of nicely worked out songs which sounded like a classic melting pot of influences from the Kinks to Kings of Leon via The Jam - Evening Post
The foursome may still be wet behind the ears, but there's a fruitful road ahead for them if they stick to their convictions and continue to churn out quality tunes. Already on the cusp of putting out another release, Dragonflies show no signs of reining in their coup d'etat of the pop industry- Live Music Scene
With the DEPARTMENT S club night with John The Mod and guests spinning 60's BEATS & GROOVES, 60's Garage, Tamla, Boogaloo, Northern Soul, Go Go, ROCK & ROLL and INDIE anthems !!
Plus Psychedelic/POP ART craziness from our glamorous face painting girls!!
ALL THIS AND YOU CAN BOWL / DINE TOO!
Takes place at The Lanes, Nelson St, Bristol. 9.00pm - 3.00am, entry £4/£5
