All the gigs I've done as Psychic Dancehall presents (plus the Gig on the Green for Furthest from the Sea Music, Comedy & Arts) so far, and the next on Marvin's Revenge @ Saltbox on 12th October.

We've sold a pile of Marvin's Revenge @ Saltbox Early Bird tickets today, if you want to come for £6 I'd jump on that soon.

We've got two more acts to announce soon that should cement any interest in coming..

Derby’s Splinter Group come with a pedigree in noise, with members who are veterans of the East Midlands indie-rock scene.

Playing mind-blowing gigs locally for quite some time, the gig at Saltbox Bar is set to coincide with the release of their first recorded music. There will finally be an artefact to enjoy at home!!

Two more are still to be announced…

Full details and tickets: Marvin's Revenge @ Saltbox

£6 early bird tickets are nearly gone… so get in quick, unless you want to pay £8 (or £10 at the door).

Adding surging post-punk to the established poetic vitriol of Jamie Thrasivoulou, Derby’s Kez have been turning heads since their sold-out debut gig at Dubrek, since supporting the likes of Big Special.

If you’re a fan of acerbic working-class wit and The Fall (but with more funk) then Kez are a band you need to see.

Two more are still to be announced…

Announcing the first two guests for Marvin's Revenge @ Saltbox with a double-header of Derby bands.

Poetry punks Kez, coming off the back of debut single ‘Sym-pathetic,’ and noise magicians Splinter Group join Marvin’s Revenge at Saltbox Bar on 12th October as part of the five-band mini-festival, celebrating some of the best independent bands in the region.

Tonight is Atsuko Chiba + Matters + Goddesses at The Old Cold Store, Nottingham - which is the best gig in Nottingham, certainly tonight, and maybe all weekend - sorry Dot to Dot.

Then tomorrow, I'm on the decks for the The Dubrek Studios Bank Holiday Extravanganza - playing tunes in between the brilliant line up of bands. I've got a whole pile of new stuff and a weird and wonderful array of tunes from across eras and genres.

I've just spent the morning arguing with local people that things do , in fact, regularly happen in Derby! One of them even very resolutely told me that "Altern 8 have never played in Derby, why lie?" Wait till he sees the video footage - unless I dreamed Wfr Central?

Who is in?

Atsuko Chiba + Matters + Goddesses is in TWO DAYS at The Old Cold Store, Nottingham - tickets are still available (despite what certain ticket links say).

If you're in any way a fan of psych, krautrock, Radiohead, The Mars Volta, post rock or psych-tinged techno you'll want to spend the price of a good pint on seeing Atsuko Chiba, MATTERS and Goddesses in Nottingham on Friday. It's the best gig on in the city this week (yes, including Dot to Dot)!
