Flamingods + Max Fulcrum & the Win.

February 22 @ 7:30 pm - 11:00 pm

$13.50

FLAMINGODS bring their explosive, high-energy show to Bedford Esquires on Thursday the 22nd Feb 2024!

A cult favourite on the festival circuit in UK and Europe, the London quartet have now been crafting their distinctive genre-defying music for over a decade now. Weaving through genres of psychedelia, new wave, electronica and punk – often within the same song – is a bit of a specialty for the band, as is their knack for blending in influences from their unique cultural heritages and love of 70s British rock and roll.

With eight nationalities between the band, listening to their music is like peeling a massive eclectic onion – it’s diverse because that’s all they know. The classic set up of guitar, bass and drums is there, it’s just that the band have flipped it on its head with the addition of fuzzed out Eastern guitars, percussion stations, bright vintage synthesisers, bowed string boxes and powerful vocals echoing throughout. It’s warm, powerful, soulful music made to get you moving.
