I arrived at the Bodega just as Glaswegian Indie band Catholic Action had started their set. Their debut album ‘In Memory Of’ was released last month and their set was jam packed with songs from it. Having 2 guitarists gave their poppy songs and riffs a bit more edge and also gave them a fuller sound than other bands of
We Are Scientists played an incredible set of 18 songs, in a packed Rescue Rooms in Nottingham last Monday night. The indie-rock band, formed in New-York city, has been touring the UK for the release of their fifth album ‘Helter Seltzer.’ Keith Murray, lead singer and guitarist, and Chris Cain, bass guitar and backing vocals have done an insane job
Emmy the Great made an appearance at Bodega only a day after the launch of her third album, ‘Second Love.’ Their set consisted majorly of this futuristic, yet moving, album.

Veteran Northern Irish punk rockers Still Little Fingers returned to a packed Rock City with a set jammed full of hits.

Kitty, Daisy & Lewis stopped off at The Bodega, as part of their UK tour, promoting last year’s release ‘The Third’. We arrived at a packed Bodega just in time for the siblings set.

Back with a new album, the Scottish five-piece stopped off in Nottingham for the last date of their UK tour. There was a venue change, originally planned to play in Rock City but the venue changed to Rescue Rooms, and by the time we turned up, the place was absolutely packed. This year marks twenty years as a band and
Back touring the UK were three piece American garage punk band Radkey. They played at Bodega on Friday night with support from Wolverhampton duo God Damn. Luckily I arrived at Bodega in good time to see opening two piece God Damn’s set. From the off they were loud in your face garage punk. I loved that they managed to create
Five piece garage soul band The Computers stopped off at The Bodega on their UK tour with a set to showcase their new style. I first saw The Computers play five years ago at Exeter Cavern. Their fast paced shouty punk n roll making me run round and lose my glasses in the sweaty teenage mosh. Fast forward five years to
