Event information

Formed by members of Brum's original punk band The Prefects, The Nightingales enjoyed cult status in the 80s and were championed by John Peel. Re-grouped in 2004, they're more productive than ever, releasing several albums, recording radio sessions & touring. Current line up features Robert Lloyd, (The Prefects), Andreas Schmid from Faust, James Smith and ex Violet Violet drummer Fliss Kitson.

I, Ludicrous open up the night at 8.15pm. They achieved immortality in 1987 when 'Preposterous Tales' reached number 11 in Peelie's Festive 50. Latest LP 'Dull is the New Interesting' received brilliant reviews & they've recently toured with Fat White Family.

"The songs on this album are the aural equivalent of a sneaky afternoon in the pub with these venerable gentleman, expressing a good few years spent observing and possibly judging the world around them" - International Times
