One of the most pleasantly chilled-out and relaxing gigs I’ve ever been to. Complemented by the marvelous charm and character of the venue.

Support: Sounds Like a Storm / Evil Regent

Venue: The Wardrobe, Leeds

Date: 26.10.18

Never ones for half measures, Twisted Wheel rattled The Wardrobe, as frontman Jonny Brown swigged from a bottle of Jack Daniel’s and consequently forgot the lyrics to some of their best known songs. Resoundingly raucous.

Artists: The Tuts / Dead Naked Hippies

Venue: Her Fest; Brudenell Social Club, Leeds

Date: 20.10.19

I only saw a couple of the bands at this event, but Dead Naked Hippies stole the show with a their edgy post-punk style and charismatic front-woman (Lucy Jowett).

The gig also promoted the release of the ‘Young Male Rage’ single, by one of the most absorbing bands currently emerging from the Leeds music scene.
