Yard Act + Nuha Ruby Ra

The band are tight, every song is performed with surgical precision – it’s proper pop music. It’s got mass appeal and it seems like they as a band have tapped into something.

Max Cooper - Dom IV

As a performance, it’s difficult to categorise – it slides between gig, clubnight and art show.

Bambara

After an explosive delivery of ‘Serafina’, they slip into the operatic closing track on Stray ‘Machete’.

Group Listening

Extraordinarily talented musicians in their own right, they craft beautiful soundscapes that fill the former church in a way a building like the Arts Centre was designed for. There’s a certain meditative quality.

Wreck + Red Mar + Goldblume + Swing and a Miss

This gig really showed off the diversity and capability of Norwich bands for riotous attitude. With excellent support from Goldblume and Swing and a Miss, it was a robust noise-filled evening, everything from the precise angularity of Red Mar, driving rock of Goldblume to the snarling sleaze rock of Wreck. As with all great live music, predictability was left by the wayside.

Black Midi

Black Midi appeared in what lots of publications like to consider a puff of smoke. In late 2018 and early 2019 murmurings of them could be heard throughout the music scene and a month after their debut album released they were nominated for the Mercury Music Prize. Ahead of their intimate show at the Norwich Arts Centre we had a chat to Geordie, the lead singer of the band.
