Goodbye The Sunset (11.00pm Downstairs)
New Bristol based rock quartet mixing catchy choruses with melodic
guitar riffs to bring a very bright sound that aims to please people who

promising young band have a full repertoire ready to unleash to the
world whilst they aim to have a successful spell in the world of music.

Diving Bell (10.00pm Downstairs)

Nine Plan Failed (9.30pm Upstairs))
Upon first listen to their single'Turn The Radio Up! ', a casual
listener might mistake nineplanfailed as just another poppy, upbeat
'indie-rock' band. But buried beneath those catchy hooks and sing along
choruses is a sombre message about the possible consequences of ignoring
child abuse.
And so it is with the Swansea-based post-punk
outfit. Like the best of the bands from their scene, nineplanfailed are
not concerned with following trends, but with crafting their own brand
of spiky, hooky guitar pop with dark edges and brooding, cynical lyrics.
With an arsenal of wickedly smart, aggressive, hook filled music
behind them, nineplanfailed released their debut EP with Death Monkey
Records in 2012, and are currently recording their new EP with acclaimed
producer Bobby Bloomfield (Does it offend you, yeah?).
Lesser Known Character (9.00pm Downstairs)
Poundshop Life (8.30pm Upstairs)
Poundshop Life play spiky, jangly, infectious but curable pop songs reflecting on whatever needs reflecting on.
Sounding like the outcast and genetically modified cousins of Ian Dury,
Elvis Costello and Barbara Windsor, Poundshop Life play their own brand
of"nearly new wave" music - immediate, cheery tunes with bitter and
twisted lyrics and happy endings. Cheap and cheerful, and very good
live.
Poundshop Life are from Bristol, playing regular gigs around the area.
The Poundshop Life EPs 'Masking Tape Memories' and'All expense
spared' and'Stuff' can be downloaded from iTunes and Amazon or streamed
on Spotify

Drawing Monsters (8.00pm Downstairs)
The Dead Romantics (7.30pm Upstairs)
Fresh new alternative rock band, ranging musically from jimmy eat world to QOTSA
The LarryFish Experiment (7.00pm Downstairs)
There are three things in this world that are better than anything
thing else, beer, friends and ska-punk. The LarryFish Experiment bring
you all three in abundance in a way that only three lower middle class
Bristolians can. With influences ranging from Reel Big Fish and Less
Than Jake to Napalm Death and System Of A Down, The LarryFish Experiment
are here to drink beer, skank hard and party. We believe in LarryFish.
