Hidden History Tour

Gig review: Tunng at Metronome, with Dana Gavanski

2005: The year indie rock peaked. The charts are dominated by Kaiser Chiefs, Franz Ferdinand and, latterly, the rise of Arctic Monkeys. It was also (probably) the last year that the NME could be considered the sole arbiter of one’s music taste. Amongst all of that is the release of a debut album that was incredibly ground-breaking for its time. This is Tunng...

Gig review: The Wombats at Motorpoint Arena, with Everything Everything

Emerging during the mid-00s, Liverpudlian trio The Wombats could have easily fallen into the depths of indie landfill, never to be seen again. But now almost 20 years into their career, they are arguably as strong as they have ever been, having just added sixth studio album Oh! The Ocean to their impressively consistent discography. Now embarking on a massive UK arena tour including the likes of the O2 Arena in London and OVO Hydro in Glasgow, the band swung by Nottingham's Motorpoint Arena to begin their biggest run of shows yet…

There are so many hidden histories that are simply forgotten about over time but queer communities have always been here. CJ De Barra recounts the stories of some of the objects on show at Nottingham Castle, on their LGBTQ+ audio walking tour.
