It’s starting to get chilly, and alarmingly the Christmas decorations are going up… Which means its getting to the time of year where we’re being pulled every which way to spend as much money as possible, whilst having to listen to the worst Christmas music ever. If this gets you down, like it does me, get to some gigs, where Nottingham artists are keeping it real, and bringing us talent that we’re proud of. Here is the selection for this week!
Thursday 9th November
Ambiance is looking pretty sweet this week as it returns from 3 weeks off, featuring 94 GUNSHIPS, G, JACK RAY and REBECCA VAUGHAN.
Also on this week though is Under the Tree at The Bodega, which also has an excellent line up ft. THE SINISTER MINISTER, STEPHANIE CARGILL, JAMIE BEAU, JAMES GOOCH and CHESHIRE AND THE CAT.
I couldn’t decide which one to feature, so the details for both events can be found below:

Friday 8th November
Farmyard Presents: Sea Monsters Eyes, Maths and the Moon, The Cream Tangerines – Jamcafe – 9pm – Free
Harmonious but a bit gritty, melodic, sometimes unpredictable, often psychedelic. With the four-part harmonies giving a retro sound, interspersed with Graham Coxon/Jonny Greenwood-esque guitar and comparisons being made with The Doors, The Bees and Sparks they really are an interesting and quite excellent band.
Also supporting them are MATHS AND THE MOON and THE CREAM TANGERINES.
