SUMMARY:Cancelled - The Meteors + Guests / Bedford Esquires
DESCRIPTION:THE PAD PRESENTS\nhttp://www.thepadpresents.com \nTHE METEORS + Guests – Thursday 16th November – Bedford Esquires \nWe are pleased to announce the Meteors will be coming to Bedford Esquires in November for a night of psychobilly punk madness! \nTHE METEORS were formed in 1980 in a reaction to the bands that were singing about ‘Big Green Cars’\, ‘Rocking This Town’ and being ‘Rockabilly Rebels’. Preferring their songs to contain topics about vampires\, stomping in graveyards and radioactive kids P. Paul Fenech\, Mark Robertson and Nigel Lewis soon found themselves all over the media. A media who were eagerly lapping up their new sound christened (thought that is surely not the right word) – ‘Psychobilly’. THE METEORS were front page news in the weekly music press\, recording radio sessions and interviews for legends like John Peel\, and gracing the silver screen care of a movie short that did the rounds with the Two-Tone movie ‘Dance Craze’. Their film ‘Meteor Madness’\, apart from hosting some crazed performances with the unhinged trio\, also featured songstress Lilly Allen’s father starring as none other than the rather exasperated Devil\, strange but true. \nBy 1982 the original line-up had split with Lewis and Robertson going on to form their own bands while P. Paul forged ahead with a free hand with THE METEORS and his idea of how psychobilly should sound. That was a sound that had grown from one of a band’s own personal identity to a world-wide genre that is Psychobilly now over 30 years established and still growing and thriving around the globe. THE METEORS have continued to inspire and influence countless bands while continuing to lead the charge from the very vanguard. \n‘The Power Of 3’ is the latest studio album by the undisputed ‘Kings Of Psychobilly’. It is as uncompromising as ever and encompasses all the elements that have always made up THE METEORS brand of ‘Pure Psychobilly’\, mashing up rockabilly\, country\, surf and rock’n’roll. A sound woven by Paul Fenech’s rockin’ guitar and bile-spitting Beelzebub-rousing lyrics. ‘The Power Of 3′ proves once again that despite some aspiring would-be usurpers THE METEORS won’t be giving up that crown anytime soon. \n—————— \nTickets are £15 advance\, on sale now here:\nhttp://www.seetickets.com/event/the-meteors/bedford-esquires/1135051 \nTickets available from our local outlets very soon. \nFull support line up to be announced

On the drums we have the talents of Matt Hunt\, the youngest member of the band\, easily one of the best around.

Meet renegade experimentalist Noga Erez. Born and living just outside Tel Aviv\, Erez’s freewheeling songs are energised by the politics that surround her\, but are also anchored in a desire to make as many people as possible feel. \nThis is politically charged pop exploded out onto a universal stage. Inspired by strong artistic figures such as Björk and MIA\, as well as everyone from Frank Ocean to Radiohead to Kendrick Lamar to FKA Twigs\, Erez is the definitive sound of the world we live in today. \nFor Erez\, music is at its best when it allows for both presence and absence. “I have this idea of giving people moments of thought and inspiration\, and at the same time giving moments of escapism and fun.”That is\, after all\, what all music should do\, and what Noga Erez is here to fearlessly master. \nSupport on the night comes from a very exciting new electro-indie outfit called Idolising Nova\, keep an eye on these guys as they’re going to go big. Also on the line up we have just confirmed the amazing Sian Cross too\, make sure you catch her. \n————- \nTickets are on sale now\, £8.50 advance here:\nhttp://www.seetickets.com/event/noga-erez/bedford-esquires/1135380 \nTickets on sale from our usual local outlets from Friday 11th August.

SUMMARY:Fij & Bickers (Adorable / House of Love) + The Grubby Mitts
DESCRIPTION:The Roar Club and Club Biscuit are excited to confirm that Pete Fij and Terry Bickers will be appearing at Bedford Esquires on Thursday the 26th of October.  \nPete Fij first came to prominence as the lead singer of cult Creation band (and Esquires regulars!) Adorable\, whilst Terry Bickers surely needs no introduction as the guitarist in The House of Love. With a shared love of melancholy\, they have teamed up to make sweet\, miserable music ‘like The Velvet Underground\, Johnny Cash & The Everly Brothers all jamming at four in the morning\, trying not to wake the neighbours up.’  \nNow on their second album\, ‘We are Millionaires’\, the duo produce beautifully sad tunes which have earned them rave reviews.  \n‘Minor key\, acoustic introspection done so beautifully it’s as if they’re singing to one another in the dustlight of a pub back room’ – MOJO \n‘A gently melancholic album that’s really rather lovely’ – The Guardian \n‘One of the most captivating albums of this year… darkly and poetically beautiful’ – Louder than War.   \nWith BBC 6 Music sessions and sold out gigs in London and their hometown of Brighton\, Fij and Bickers are an uplifting reminder that it really is never too late to get your band together.   \nTickets are £8 in advance\, available now from http://www.seetickets.com / http://www.wegottickets.com and shortly from Esquires bar.  \nThis gig will take place in the suitably intimate surroundings of Holy Moly’s – we might even bring along some candles! \nSupport comes from Bedford’s own Grubby Mitts and their brilliantly inventive collection of found sounds\, wistful melodies and wonky electronica.

The single taken from the album\, “Do You Believe In The Westworld?” has become an anthem and is still widely played in clubs and on international radio\, as well as featuring on numerous compilation albums. \nSupporting the likes of The Clash & Ian Dury lead to Theatre Of Hate headlining major venues across the UK & Northern Europe. \nTheatre Of Hate imploded in 1982\, with Kirk taking Stan forward to form Spear Of Destiny\, but the band has resurfaced over the years to play some very special shows. Having been asked by John Curd to join The Damned for a massive show at London’s infamous Roundhouse in December 2014 the band once again joined the fray. A short set of dates around the London anchor show attracted rave reviews\, as did a 6 night night SOLD OUT run in December 2014. \n2015 saw the band play two short jaunts across the UK in April and December both sets of dates wowed large crowds. \nDuring touring in 2014 and 2015 the band constantly recorded at Oxygen Studios in Manchester\, the first new studio album in 30 years KINSHI was released late last year on CD\, Vinyl\, Download & Dub. The 12 brand new songs are simply stunning. Part funded by a fan based private Pledge campaign this THEATRE OF HATE masterpiece is all set propel the band even further back into the spotlight. Between\, October and November\, THEATRE OF HATE will tour ‘Kinshi’ across the UK and over Europe. \nKirk\, Stan and John will be joined by current Spear Of Destiny band member Adrian Portas (New Model Army) and Chris Bell(Hugh Cornwall) on drums to pay homage to the iconic TOH sound. \nSupport TBC \nTickets priced £16 are on sale from See-tickets\, we got Tickets\, Craufurd Arms website as well as over the bar in person.

SUMMARY:Catfish play the Sunday Afternoon Session at Bedford Esquires
DESCRIPTION:British Blues Award winners Catfish have carved a reputation for themselves as an excellent live band with a phenomenal frontman in 22 year old guitarist/vocalist Matt Long who plays with a real passion for the blues. \nThey received two nominations in the British Blues Awards 2015\, taking third in Emerging Artist\, and followed this with three in 2016\, taking first in keyboards and third in Young Artist. \nThe band crashed onto the blues scene in January 2015\, with their debut album ‘So Many Roads’ going straight in at no 1 in the IBBA blues airplay charts. Their EP\, a tribute to BB King called ‘When BB Sings the Blues’\, charted at no 5 in February 2016.           \nIn January 2017 they released their much-anticipated second album ‘Broken Man’ which is almost entirely original material.  Broken Man also reached no 1 in the IBBA blues airplay charts in March 2017.  This is blues with a very broad brush – from epic prog anthems to stripped back piano ballads.  Reviews include this one from Blues in Britain Magazine: \n‘Catfish’s new Broken Man album…is a turning point for the band showing that not only is Catfish one of the best live bands on the blues circuit at the moment\, but that the calibre of their songwriting matches that.’ Blues in Britain\, December 2016 \nand this one from Blues Matters Magazine: \n‘Catfish are one of the finest live bands in Britain today.  The quality of musicianship is outstanding and in Matt Long\, they have one of the greatest young guitarists on the scene today…’ Blues Matters Magazine August 2017 \nAnd here are a couple of the lovely comments from Facebook from audience members \n‘It’s not often I get emotional\, but after seeing Catfish play i am man enough to say their performance brought tears to my eyes.  The guitar player just blew me away and this guy plays with his heart and soul\, which is something you can’t learn.’ \n‘This kid had me speechless\, not seen talent like that in years and years\, it was emotional\, a privilege to mix his sound’ \n‘Absolutely stunning performance…. A masterclass was delivered to us\, the likes of which few have the privilege to witness.’ \nTheir busy tour schedule has included a number of major festivals including Bluesfest at the 02\, Cambridge Rock Festival\, The Great British Rock and Blue Festivals in Colne and Skegness as well as major blues clubs all over the country.  In 2018\, they have three European tours already booked\, and have been asked to play in the USA in July 2018.
