GIG ONE
Our current future session artist JOSH WHEATLEY is releasing his EP “Follow The Smoke” and he’s throwing one hell of a party to celebrate it. Down at Pepper Rocks on Thursday, you can expect plenty of great local artists and of course a performance from the sock fanatic himself!
FRANKIE RUDOLF will be opening the night with some lovingly tender Folk, paired with some incredibly catchy melodies. NEW COMMUNICATION’S big band Hip-Hop energy will be getting everybody moving, before JAMIE MOON’S sultry Acoustic bliss slows things down a bit. MJ LYNCH’S classic Soul sound will be stripped down to simple yet effective acoustic renditions, just before Mister Wheatley takes to the stage.
Once JOSH WHEATLEY takes to the stage, you will become entranced. His beautiful voice and imaginative songwriting has won him lots of praise on the Nottingham scene and it’s just a matter of time before he blows up. He will of course be performing his New EP “Follow The Smoke” as well as plenty of other songs from his back catalogue. Come on down and support the hard-copy release of one of the hardest working musicians in Nottingham!
GIG TWO
The LeftLion family are back with their BLOW-OUT event to celebrate the new issue of the magazine, and there’s a bloody great lineup to celebrate it!
This Saturday at The Corner, ONEGIRLONEBOY will be opening proceedings with their sultry vocals and catchy riffs. YOUTHORACLE of Don’t Flop fame will be gracing the stage next, with some acapella versions of his upcoming EP “Flashfloods Vol. 2”. He’s one of the fastest rising UK rappers for a reason, and we’re sure this performance will be unlike anything you’ve seen.
Next up we have some special “Secret” guests. Even we don’t know who these are, but it could be bloody anybody. But, we all love a surprise every now and again!
Finally, the electronic goddess that is AJA will be gracing the stage with her powerful, bassy electronica. One of the fastest rising stars in the Nottingham scene, AJA is known for putting on an incredible yet unique performance. Considering she sounds like no one else out there at the minute, we highly suggest you get down to The Corner and check her out!
GIG THREE
Rounding off our Top Three we have Farmyard Presents at Jam Cafe on Friday. As per usual, lots of great local talent in one of Nottingham’s best cosy venues.
We’ll have FRAZER LOWRIE opening the night with his in your face soulful Acoustic tunes, as well as CHESHIRE & THE CAT, who will be getting the entirety of Jam Cafe up on their feet thanks to their brassy yet catchy party sounds.
Headlining the night we have a band who is sure to bring a bit of sunshine back to these miserable Winter months. STUCK IN SECOND make Summery Surf-Reggae, the kind you would hear on a Jamaican beach somewhere, but there’s plenty of catchy melodies that could only be found in Nottingham!
Yours in Love of New Music,

As such, we would like to point out that we are in fact affiliated with the lovely people at LeftLion, however we can hand on heart say, this has not influenced our decision on the Top Three at all. We honestly believe that BLOW-OUT is one of the best gigs in Nottingham this week!
