Join the Headfirst mailing list for our unbiased recommendations.
A gig held at Strange Brew on Wednesday 21st July. The event starts at 19:30.
Bristolian local legends, Snazzback, unveil their new album "In The Place" at Bristol newest music venue, Strange Brew!
"New wave dancefloor instrumentalists, Snazzback's music overflows with deep grooves and loose, lolloping rhythms that tease and play, sometimes languid and carefree, other times energy spiralling upwards"
Having been a regular sight busking on the streets of Bristol for years now, the band have simultaneously held down a weekly residency at The Gallimaufry as well as performing at festivals such as Boomtown, Shambala and Glastonbury.
"In The Place" represents a real development of the Snazz sound, with BBC Radio support from Gilles Peterson, the band are clearly now making waves beyond the West Country. Join us for an evening of music as Snazzback perform tracks from their new LP before hitting the road around the rest of the UK. Come down early and bag yourself a copy of the vinyl!
Worm DJs will be warming up the room for the evening, as well as Snazzback's very own Pharaoh do Pandeiro with his wide-ranging selection of Latin, Brazilian and more leftfield records...
Tickets available now via Headfirst Bristol.
