The Wind-Up Birds,Mellon-Collies

Ryshworth Club

Another special line up from some of the best bands on the DIY Music Scene.

The Wind-Up Birds - “…restless post punk poets with a barrelful of intelligent, nuanced lyrics and whip-smart tunes.” Not my words but the words of andysmusicreviewsuk in a recent Louder than war article.

Mellon-Collies

  • “…razor-sharp lyrics, snarling guitars, and unfiltered attitude. Think X-Ray Spex meets Siouxsie Sioux, with a gritty Yorkshire bite and a sense of humour that hits just as hard as the riffs.”

All this plus resident Rumble DJ Supported by volunteers from Bingley Music Town - Promises to be another awesome night

Rumble Up The Ryshworth is a series of gigs by independent artists with an alternative outlook. EVERY THIRD FRIDAY of the month, so save those dates. Pay What You Feel - all money goes to the artists. Help us build a scene, and support a local venue. Bands finish in time for you to get the last train/bus back to #saltaire, #shipley #leeds, #bradford, #keighley, #skipton

Music and conversation continues until close.

From: 19:30
