From Loyle Carner to Secrets of Pompeii...here's what's on this week
Loyle Carner
When: Monday 6 March, 7pm
Where: Rock City
How much: Sold Out
Shut your eyes and imagine. You’re in Rock City. Quietness among everyone. Then, emerging in the small of light, Loyle Carner starts singing “oh please we ain't got no P’s because we spent all our money on some old CD’s”. Elation fills the room and everyone starts singing to the Yesterday's Gone classic. The King of the Hip Hop, Alternative, Jazz infused genre is back in Notts, and as you can tell, we couldn’t be happier.
Akira
When: Monday 6 March, 8:30pm
Where: Savoy Cinema
How much: Sold Out
The 35th Anniversary of Akira is hitting the big screens once again, this time at the Savoy Cinema! The classic Japanese adaptation follows teenage biker Tetsuo through the streets of Tokyo on a mission to locate Akira. By doing so he wreaks havoc across the city, being pursued by both military forces and his childhood friend Kaneda. If this sounds like your type of movie get down to the cinema to catch it on its anniversary!
“Crystal Clear”- Castle Rock x Brewster’s International Women’s Day Collab
When: Wednesday 8 March
Where: Old Cold Store
How much: Free
The month of celebrating women has arrived! Join a group of all women for an event filled with live music, food and lots of drink. Even if you know nothing about beer, or are doing sober March, the day is set to be lots of fun. So get down to the Old Cold Store, because what better way to celebrate being a woman than being surrounded by them!
Suede
When: Friday 10th March
Where: Rock City Main Hall
How much:£39.50
The classic English Rock band from the 80s is making its way back to Notts in this week’s appearance at Rock City. Suede are set to perform classic hits alongside new tracks from their upcoming album. Having surprised fans with releasing their new music under a fake name, their return has been dubbed “a euphoric return”. This night is set to be one to remember!
Erotic Secrets of Pompeii
When: 11th March, 8:30pm
Where: The Old Bus Depot
How much: £5.50
Right off the back of their debut EP, Erotic Secrets of Pompeii are coming to play Trash Jugular in Notts this week! Their music combines apocalyptic lounge music with a twist of angular Art Rock and transgressive Post-Punk. If this sounds up your street, tickets are still available via Gigantic!
We have a favour to ask
LeftLion is Nottingham’s meeting point for information about what’s going on in our city, from the established organisations to the grassroots. We want to keep what we do free to all to access, but increasingly we are relying on revenue from our readers to continue. Can you spare a few quid each month to support us?
