Atomic Rooster

Atomic Rooster play the Wrecking Ball Arts Centre on Wednesday 10 March, their only Hull date that spring. It's a mid-week one, so you'll want to keep it in mind if you're planning your week around it.

For those who know the name but aren't sure where to start, Atomic Rooster were one of the big names of the British progressive rock scene back in the day, and this is a full-band show. The bill is straightforward: it's just them on the night, so the whole set is theirs to fill. If you've got a favourite record from their catalogue, it's a good bet you'll hear something from it, and if you're coming in fresh, it's a chance to hear the band as a whole rather than in bits and pieces.

It's a mid-week gig, so it's one of those nights that works well if you're not fancying a late one on a Friday or Saturday. The set runs from 8pm to 10pm, which is a decent length without stretching too far into the night, and since it's a Wednesday, you're not trading away your whole weekend for it. Tickets are £28, and you can get them through the Wrecking Ball Arts Centre.
