The Vivettes + Nirvanher + Us + DJ Sue

The Vivettes – the very wonderful Girls On Top played tons of gigs with Bugbear back in the day so we’re very pleased to welcome back Lydie, their drummer, with her new vivacious combo…garage punk and cool trash with nifty originals and some cool covers, such as I Need You by The Kinks. Nirvanher – yes, an all gal Nirvana homage, playing all the hits but no dangly bits (apologies to the band, probably not the best tagline that!). The point is…they are bloody brilliant. Fantastic to see women doing that material. No doubt Kurt would approve, being the proper, unabashed feminist he was. (Not that usual for blokes in rock bands back then… ) Us – this fabulous young band really know how to kick it, loads of energy, lots of attitude, punky propulsion and rock n roll roots with some fine garage oriented workouts. And they have a harp player! No, not that kind of harp…we’re talking harmonica. Proper. Which will be why they’ve been handpicked by The Libertines for a support spot soon, and they’ll no doubt be wowing the Libs crowd and you tonight. Hot stuff. DJ Sue – the Camden Town legend keeps the party rocking til 2am.
