Slaughter Beach, Dog returned to the UK for the first time since 2018 when they supported Tigers Jaw and Worriers. Since then the band have released their acclaimed 2019 album Safe and No Fear which saw them grow musically and adapt a more expansive sound. Up first was Dogeyed, a Bristol-based band on the Specialist […]
Quesadilla is the new project from Joe Booker, ex-vocalist for Nottingham emo bands Taco Hell & L’Escargot. Comprised of 3 full songs, an instrumental interlude and a surprise guest intro, the EP, (Hopefully), showcases Joe’s knack for poppy, emo jams with catchy hooks. You can stream the whole thing below and download it for free on the […]
At the beginning of this year, American indie rock band Pinegrove released Cardinal. It was put out on Run For Cover records after the band signed to them in late 2015. The snowballing support for Pinegrove hasn’t just seen them gain thousands of Facebook likes, but has translated into almost tangible energy at live shows. […]
Woahnows opened up proceedings at a very busy Bodega, providing the crowd with their brand of indie-punk. Their songs are catchy, and they’re musically very tight. Always a load of fun to see live, and they certainly seemed to go down with the audience. Up second were Apologies, I Have None, who don’t make it […]
My first band was formed when I was around 15 years old at a house party. Anyone within our circle of friends who played an instrument was encouraged to bring it along to “jam.” What an awful word and awful way to describe something that is sometimes not awful. The guy whose house it was […]
Little Bribes kicked things off at a surprisingly busy Rock City Basement. It’s always nice to see a local band doing so well, and even better when they’re actually really good. After building up into “Reboot”, with its catchy riff and raging chorus, the band continued to blast through their songs – with each one […]
Kevin Devine and the Goddamn Band opened up the packed The Front Bottoms headline show to a crowd who seemed relatively disinterested at first. Of course, Kevin is an incredible musician, backed by a great band, and is a master at getting the crowd on side. The first few songs seem to be met by […]
Petal took to the stage at a quiet Bodega and quickly started playing songs from her first album, Shame. Usually a full band affair with touring members including those from Tigers Jaw and Three Man Cannon, tonight saw just vocalist/guitarist Kiley playing the songs solo. She powered through songs such as “Tommy” with huge singalong […]
Every time a band like Turnover plays in at The Bodega in Nottingham it gets surprisingly busy, see: The Hotelier, etc, but this show was packed to the walls from the second doors opened. Local band Little Bribes kicked things off with their brand of alt pop-punk/emo and played a ridiculously confident set for a band […]
Seeing Your Scene chats to Nottingham’s own George Gadd who plays acoustic solo stuff and also fronts emo/pop-punks Little Bribes. How was 2015? It was a whirlwind of emotion but looks like it’s closing out on a high note thankfully! Hopefully next year our country can pull itself together. What was your favourite moment of […]
