Sundara Karma, Ten Tonnes, Pleasure Inc.

Sundara Karma are truly one of those must-see bands who simply will not fail to set alight everyone’s indie rock flames.

Skinny Lister + Life Aquatic Band + The Molee Shakes

Skinny Lister had an absolute ball delivering a set that is high on energy and audience participation. They are greeted like returning heroes. Almost all of the audience mouth along word perfectly to all of the songs, even those from one month old, new album Shanty Punk

Waterparks and Stand Atlantic

UK Foo Fighters

Tribute bands are often hit or miss but it’s safe to say that when the UK Foo Fighters played Norwich’s LCR on Saturday night, it really did feel as though Dave Grohl himself and the Foos were right before our eyes.

The Mary Wallopers

The Mary Wallopers have it all. You simply could not ask for better craic on a Sunday night in Norwich.

The Pigeon Detectives

The levels of energy and enthusiasm (both on and off stage) prove that The Pigeon Detectives are still up for a grand night out. Whatever night it is.

The View

Matthew And The Atlas - Memorial

Baby Queen

The peak of the night came with the cataclysmic “Dover Beach” that had the entire room bouncing to it’s rocketing chorus,

National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine

The enormity and significance of this concert suddenly sank home, and I felt guilty for simply being free to come along and listen to this great classical music.

McFly - Lost Alone

Tom's crisp vocals and skillful guitar playing, Danny's charismatic performance, Dougie's bass grooves, and Harry's drumming expertise were a testament to their musical prowess.

Jesca Hoop

She’s soulful, mystical, mysterious and wacky with a real aura (a quite magical stage presence)

Golden Panda

Hard Fi

This house is on fire and yes Thursday is indeed the new Friday

Kezia Gill

Kezia Gill's first journey back to Norwich since supporting The Shires at Epic Studios two years ago

Pip Blom

The band seem very happy and confident on stage, relaxed in knowing they are producing the goods. I hope they return to their home from home soon.

The Bluetones

Funeral For A Friend - Dashboard Confessional

The Xcerts

Long live The Xcerts, here’s to another 14 years and hopefully bigger things to come.

The Sherlocks

This was an evening to let the music do the talking

Lovejoy

Sheer, whole-hearted, fun is the best way to sum up Lovejoy. They’ve harboured a beautiful sense of community and long may it continue.

Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells - The 50th Anniversary Experience

A magnificent tribute to one of England's finest modern contemporary rock composers.

Deepdale Festival

Thank you Deepdale – you did it again. This is still my favourite festival of the year, and judging by the number of returning acts and audience members, everybody else's, too.

Erland Cooper and Ensemble

All in all, another great evening at the Arts Centre.

Nina Nastasia

This was a mesmerising performance by a completely singular artist

Mama Oh No

Obituary

An evening of clean, wholesome, melodic pop this most certainly wasn’t. It was however good deathly fun.

Inspiral Carpets - Floral Image

Let's Rock Norwich 2023

The Let's Rock festival is unashamedly a retro festival - often a curate's egg of one hit wonders, war horses and hardy-perennials, but the roll call for Norwich was unusually eclectic. Whether that was by design, or just who they could get, is hard to say, but the inclusion of bands like The Farm and Happy Mondays suggest the festival is starting to take itself more seriously – becoming more about music and less about mullet wigs – which has to be a good thing.

N-Dubz

N-Dubz's performance was a seamless blend of their greatest hits and newer tracks...The evening was a whirlwind of energy, talent, and good vibes. Whether you're a long-time fan or someone looking to experience the essence of British urban music, an N-Dubz concert is an event you won't want to miss.

Hamish Hawk and Redolent

...as the evening comes to a close there’s smiles all around, from those on the stage to those who stood, danced and sang along. Thank you, Hamish and your wonderful band. Haste ye back!

STREET SOLDIER, NEGATIVE FRAME, NO RELIEF & FINAL NAIL

Fierce, heavy, intense but Pavlis left feeling slightly disappointed.

Miles Kane

Nothing But Thieves

MONDO GENERATOR, ACID THRONE & RED EYED CULT

Glenn Hughes
