The Armada Rooms

07/10/2021

Well, our typically slack social media game has meant that this has taken a few days. But we were thrilled to bits to be hosting the incredible Mo Etc. over a couple of days to shoot her mini-doco. What an awesome musician, and wonderful seeing the space used for this brilliant creative enterprise. Check it out for some super cool musics.

Hi folks! Aaaaand... we’re open! And have been for a little while. Hand sanitiser and spray ‘n’ wipe liberally provided for those COVID-free rehearsals you’ve been waiting for.

To get the ball rolling, we just had a slot open up at the last minute 6-8 tonight (Thursday). Hit us up if you’re an itinerant band in urgent need of a practice venue...

Well, you saw this coming, but sorry folks; we're all closed up. Stay safe, stay healthy, do the things you're supposed to do, and we'll see you for all the awesome jams on the other side.

Hi guys. We understand folks are losing gigs hand over fist out there. It’s real hard for everybody - venues as well as musicians. We’ve been thinking about what we can do, and it’s not a lot sorry, but it’s what we’ve got... Now you’re all free on the weekend, we’re going to offer the Armada Rooms free of charge on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights to any band that has lost a gig but fancies using the time to practice or jam. Places will be allocated more or less first come first served, but priority will be given to bands that have lost a gig for that evening. The space is nice and big, so you can keep your social distance (unless there’s, like, twenty of you), and we’re going to invest in plenty of sanitiser once we find a shop that hasn’t sold out. Hit us up via this page or the website. And stay healthy!

Hello everybody. Well, we’re filling up fast! Lots of people enjoying the space, convenience of a full set up backline, and Oscar’s ornamental bass guitar. We still have plenty of availability though, including the much coveted 4-7 slot, and for some reason Friday nights, when nobody seems that interested in rehearsing. So drop us a message and we’ll see if we can’t hook you up.
