The Bonnevilles are shaking Northern Ireland in a way it hasn't felt since Van Morrison & Them obliterated Club Rado in 1964 and Stiff Little Fingers blew apart The Trident in 1977! The Bonnevilles don't so much play punk blues as use it as a springboard to create a completely new genre. And now they release their fourth studio album Dirty Photographs with LA-based Alive Natural Sound Records. The Lurgan duo take Mississippi Hill Blues and Punk Rock and mix their own unique dark Northern Irish Punk Blues stew, which drew the attention of the aforementioned Alive Natural Sound leading to the release of the award-nominated Arrow Pierce My Heart on the label in 2016. The Bonnevilles formed in 2009 and quickly released their debut and now legendary album Good Suits & Fightin' Boots on Motor Sounds Records. McGibbon, being a blues fan, was moved to create The Bonnevilles after being heavily inspired by RL Burnside's A Ass Pocket Of Whiskey and bands like The Soledad Brothers, The Immortal Lee County Killers and blues heavyweights like Howlin' Wolf and Robert Johnson. McGibbon combines with McMullan's heavy metal drumming style in a band has become Europe's top alternative blues act. Playing the Deep Blues festival in Clarksdale, Mississippi and the legendary Junior's Juke Joint in Holly Springs in 2015 cemented the band's reputation as the real deal. Now the band's new album Dirty Photographs sees them reach fresh creative fields the same dark blues punk stew but with added sugar.

UXB Music Promotion/Sounds Of The Suburbs Records present https://www.facebook.com/Sounds-of-the-Suburbs-record-store-1078521195544807/ Small World formed in 1979 by Chris Philpot, Mick Cohen and John Wratten and augmented by Andy Orr in August 1980. The band were influenced by 1960s guitar based groups like the Small Faces and post-punk new wave such as The Jam and The Clash. Although the band attracted a diverse audience, they soon became a firm favourite on the Mod scene playing numerous headline gigs all over London and the UK. In 1982, the band released their first single Love is Dead/Liberty on Whaam! Records. The single quickly sold out and is now quite collectable. The second single First Impressions on Valid records in 1983. In October 1984, after a farewell gig at Islington's Hope & Anchor, Small World were put on ice. This allowed the lads to pursue other musical projects which included The Combine and The Rage. In 1987, Small World reformed to play at the Assembly Room in Rotherham. The gig was a sell-out and subsequently the boys have continued to gig, on and off, ever since. The band released a double CD/Album on Detour Records in 1999 entitled 'Slight Detour' (DRCD019/DRLP019), this comprised of unreleased demos and the two singles the band recorded and is very highly recommended.

Hello Smiler Stars ! My name is Damien Smiler & I started Smiler Nights at the beginning of this decade. I have always strived to make a safe space for outsiders, freaks & the lonely to feel free, express yourself & make friend's no matter how out of place you may think you are,. After a long break away from doing events I have decided to make a return. With a clear and strong vison to build Smiler Nights around the evolution of my new musical that is starting as one person 30min show called "Frankly Famous" that I am going to develop into a full length stage production, adding new character's & element's to each show performed at Smiler every 2 months . I am beyond excited to kick off this new chapter & see familiar & new faces come to Smiler, to see the many faces of Frankly Famous's evolution & growth. As well as the unbelievable talent playing & supporting each night. This is the first Smiler back, & may it be a very special one, see you there, love you all xxx I am absolutely honoured to be joined by these iconic artists: Frankly Famous - 10:10pm The 0.R. - 9:30pm Phoenix - 9pm Charlie Jiminez - 8:30pm Cloud - 8pm (Bios & descriptions of each artist to be revealed) Check them out yourself in the meantime ! Frankly Famous The Musical: The Alternate Turning The year is 1965. After being chemically castrated by force for being gay, Alan Turing survives a British assassination attempt via a cyanide-laced apple. He's secretly rescued by the FBI and hired by the American government, handed a Cold War budget to develop Artificial Intelligence. And he succeeds. But what he creates is immediately used against the people, the U.S. begins quietly embedding AI-generated deepfakes into American media to manipulate the public without them ever knowing. Horrified, Turing builds Frankly Famous in secret: a post-human popstar with all of media's consciousness downloaded into their system. A spirit. A glitch. A living deepfake. From a hidden television studio bunker, Turing and Frankly hatch a radical plan, to intercept global TV signals and expose the truth about deepfakes. But saying it isnt enough. To prove it, they must do what deepfakes arent designed to do: stand out. Theyll flood the airwaves with queerness. Not to blend in, but to blow people's minds. Where the government once launched a Lavender Scare to erase queer people from media, this will be its chaotic, fabulous reversal, a Lavender Awakening. As what's truly at stake is the future of reality itself. AI-driven media, left unchallenged, in a techno fascist world, will erase queerness, minorities, and all outsiders from visibility, and revolutions cant happen in echo chambers. It starts on stages like Smiler Nights & all, beyond xxx
