The Cube
Independent cinema which also hosts regular gigs and music.
The Cube is a real asset to Bristol, an independent cinema run by volunteers with original programming. In addition to films and live music the 105 seat cinema is also used for workshops and discussions.
In essence The Cube shows the films you actually want to see, avoiding pure 'arthouse' programming. Expect to find Hollywood's (occasional) decent offerings listed alongside quality foreign and independent films as well as a few cult classics. Wednesday mornings (11am) is BabyCinema where babies are welcome while Wednesday evenings is BlueScreen - a sort of open mic night but for short films.
While often folk or indie based, gig listings for The Cube can really vary. The level of crowd interaction at the Cube can make it a great venue to catch one off shows from electronica producers to experimental artists.

Our recent recommendations for The Cube
At last! The enigmatic psych-folk sorceress and recent AD 93 alum makes her highly anticipated mark on Bristol. Dagmar drifts between raw musique concrète and gorgeous, haunted berceuses, layering phantom vocals with decaying Tascam distortion. Big one for fans of the daydreamer lulls of Joanne Robertson, Amateur Hour, Ignatz and Grouper.

Sell out warning! Another beautifully skewed bill from the avant-garde experts @ QWAK: Suzan Peeters pulls the accordion into strange new territory, Augustė Vickunaitė unwires music concrète malfunctions, Jon Collin’s recites dusty folk-blues memoirs alongside Gris Maguerite’s haunting AV splices. There’s no support act here!

Sell out warning! Sought-after NYC pianist Kelly Moran has lent her touch to everyone from FKA twigs and The Avalanches to Ryuichi Sakamoto and Yves Tumor. Now firmly at home on Warp, she conjures spellbinding modern classical and electronica with dazzling techgnostic finesse. Expansive, dreamlike pieces drifting somewhere between Caterina Barbieri, John Cage and Julianna Barwick… tip!

Improv maniac Dan Johnson brings 8 hours of ramshackle madness for his annual TOILET FEST bonanza, taking place in every possible nook and cranny of The Cube. Come primed for truly bonkers, gloriously DIY and wonky Microplex tomfoolery with a rotating cast of AV misfits. An essential date in the Bristol diary, with all profits going towards SLEEC. Get it marked!

Vital evening of education and solidarity with the people of Lebanon, featuring 3 contemporary shorts and 93's Up to the South (which could've been filmed yesterday). With a Q&A from Farrah Berrou (director of Buffer Zone), this is a chance to deepen your understanding of life, resistance and occupation in Lebanon + raise some money for Jibal's environmental education work.
