Our first show of 2025!

Firstly, thank you for bearing with us—as “grassroots” promoters, we have to fit this around our lives, and sometimes that means we have to take a moment.

That being said—we are back and raring to go for our next booking, this time, we are heading to Firebug’s sister venue, Duffy’s Bar! For those that have been to Firebug before, you’ll know Duffy’s is just around the corner. Different venue, same vibe.

When is it?

Sunday 31st of August, doors will open around 3pm, with our headliner finishing up around 9pm—so that you can get home at a reasonable hour.

Where is it?

Duffy’s Bar, 18 Pocklingtons Walk, Leicester LE1 6BU.

How much is it?

A mere £10 (plus fees) online—which is £2 per band! Bargain.

Who’s playing?

Ha, so. Erm, we can’t actually announce our headliner yet. But, when have we let you down in the past? You’re just going to have to trust us.
