*NEXT SHOW*

After a MASSIVE response to our request for new bands this weekend (we had about 40 bands get in touch to support) we’ve finalised the bill for our Saturday 7 November show at the Hope and Anchor in Islington.

Returning from Birmingham for a well deserved CW headline will be the excellent Slump - coming off the back of a very busy year of UK touring. Main support are London’s it's ALL about MARY! - back after 10 years away from the scene and with a stonking new album just launched, with fellow Londoners The Serenity Club and Bristol’s Epimetheus stepping into the breach for a big CW debut.

This one has the smell of sweat, beers and cookin’ amplifiers written all over it… so get this date in the diary and get your tickets booked over at WeGotTickets ticket shop ASAP!

….. ….. …..

PS huge love to everyone who tagged and shared our post to get this one over the line - it’s funny how these things work out. The headache of a big cancellation actually brought some fresh new blood in for next year’s events. Watch this space….

Citizens of Hastings you’re doing us proud.
Our invitation to join our magical mystery tour to Hope and Anchor, Islington has been gloriously received. So much so we are booking a bigger bus. We think it’ll cost £35 including gig maybe less if more people join the party. Drop a message if you want to ride alongside Hans Deville Frank from Blue Velvet and THEE HEADSHRINKERS for a trip you’ll never forget ⚓️🙏⚡️🤠
Saturday 14th November. Let’s go !

On 7 October 1996 Rheinallt launched the ‘Bukowski’ album at a lively gig in the legendary Hope and Anchor pub in Islington, London.

Also performing were our friends (and fellow Ankst label artists) Topper, Melys and David Wrench - we would do two more gigs with them in the following weeks.

🎻

Ar 7 Hydref 1996, lansiodd Rheinallt yr albwm ‘Bukowski’ mewn gig fywiog yn y dafarn chwedlonol, y Hope and Anchor yn Islington, Llundain.

Hefyd yn perfformio roedd ein ffrindiau (a chyd-artistiaid ar label Ankst) Topper, Melys a David Wrench - byddem yn gwneud dau gig arall gyda nhw yn yr wythnosau dilynol.
