Live music night at The New Adelphi Club with LiVES, the post-punk and hard rock band from Cornwall, plus Divorce Finance.
LiVES play The New Adelphi Club on Wednesday 21 October, with Divorce Finance on support. It's a mid-week one, so if you're heading in from across town, it's worth keeping the date in mind.
LiVES are a band born in Cornwall and sharpened in Kent, and they describe their sound as a visceral collision of post-punk fury and hard rock. Their debut album, Let Them Eat Cake, was produced by John Cornfield — who has worked with Oasis, Muse and Supergrass — and it was fast, aggressive and socio-politically charged. One track from it, 'Just Can't Get Enough', found a wider audience after it was placed in the Netflix series Lucifer.
They've spent the last couple of years on the road, playing a sold-out European headline tour in 2025 and supporting The Buzzcocks, Span and The Wildhearts. This show comes on the back of their new album, Ghosts, which lands on Sister 9 Records. It was recorded across Tywardreath Studios in Cornwall, Albion Rooms in Margate and Anglet Studios in France, and Cornfield is back producing this time around too. The lead singles are 'Burn' and 'Not Punk'.
