A reminder of what is happening on Friday night!

10/11/2023

It's Friday and, you know what that means? New band announcement time!

So this week we're pleased to welcome GypsyJack as a part of this whole thing! You might have seen them around before, but if not keep a look out for more shows next year and a new record too.

Here's what they say of themselves:

We are Gypsy Jack! The hottest new band from Birmingham. A snarling sound of hard rock and sleaze oozing with melancholic melody and decadent attitude! Notorious for the biggest stage presence; making grassroots venues feel like a stadium. Message us here or email [email protected]

03/11/2023

You might have noticed that both this week and last week, a new act has not been announced. Simply put, everyone has said they want to hold back for one reason or another!

We should be back in the swing of things next week, announcing a band who are playing a headliner in Birmingham tomorrow night and want the pictures from that show as promotional pictures!

Following that, we also have a band who are finishing up a new record and, with that, wish to revamp their online presence ready to move forward with what comes next.

We also have a band who has kind of been informally announced already, but also lacks a name...

And in addition to those, there are at least a couple more to come, so wait until next week to see who else we're bringing along for the ride!

For a reminder so far, our announced line up is:
Kieran Bott Music/Pasalacqua
Basement Orphans
Abhey Aneja

30/10/2023

Today's the day! Basement Orphans have released their new EP. You can also catch them live tonight as they headline Birmingham's Sunflower Lounge. Check it out here:

20/10/2023

It's Friday so that means a new announcement!

We're pleased to introduce the next artist who is a part of Mellow Raccoon, our good friend Abhey Aneja!

Abhey describes himself as "a singer/songwriter from India performing Soft Rock music covers and originals all around the world. His new Single, Mirror, will be available 30th november on Spotify and Youtube. More songs coming up end of year."

Abhey has been based in the West Midlands for the past couple of years so you might well have seen him around. If not, hopefully you'll look out for him now!
