RIVIERA ARCADE at The Thunderbolt
See event details

A gig held at The Thunderbolt on Thursday 6th January. The event starts at 19:00.


Riviera Arcade are an up and coming indie-rock band, based in Bristol whose songs captivate audiences with powerful rhythms, infectious melodies and heartfelt lyrics. Dan (vocals/guitar) and George (drums) first became friends when they met in a questionable pub somewhere in Swindon, 2018 with Dan initially mistaking George for a devout Christian songwriter that had hired them both to do a session recording.

Fast forward to May, 2021 and in the midst of the Covid 19 pandemic, Riviera Arcade was born with the recruitment of bassist Theo Hayes, whose university commitments would unfortunately prevent him from becoming a permanent member of the group. After months of hard work, covid infections, popped ribs, alcohol poisonings, almost lost jobs, houseshare romances, urine stained sofas and an unmeasurable number of pop culture references, the band's debut album 'Gone By 10' was completed.

Three people trying to make their own way.
