See in the Bank Holiday weekend the right way with a night of funk, disco, soul and a dancefloor that’s going to be very hard to stay off.

The Armoury are celebrating the release of their brand-new single Spending Emotions with a night at their favourite spot in town: The Bread & Roses 😉

After a sold out Troubadour show, a residency at 93 Feet East and performances at Glastonbury, they’ve built a reputation for turning every room into a dancefloor with big grooves, serious energy and a whole lot of funk.

The night will also be packed with the sonic sounds of Funk, Disco and Soul with a live DJ playing the grooves of the 70’s.

Plus support from Limunga blending folk, jazz, blues and neo-soul with hypnotic vocals.

Friday 28 Aug, tickets £10.

Come and spend your emotions wisely. 🕺
