Sounds Familiar Music Quiz - Power Ballads Special

Sounds Familiar is back at The Welly on Friday 29 January, and this time it's a power ballads special. If you've never come across them before, it's a music quiz that describes itself as more of a party than a pub quiz — they pitch it as the cross between your favourite playlist and the best party you've ever been to. The claim is zero boring trivia and more than 100 killer tunes, with rounds built around chart classics, old skool anthems, indie bangers, mash-ups, power ballads, guilty pleasures and current floor-fillers, spanning the 1960s to the present day. This particular night puts the power ballads front and centre, so expect the big, beltable choruses to take the lead.

There's a bit of a track record behind the name, too. They're the only music quiz to have sold out The Camden Roundhouse, they've supported the boy band 5ive, and by their own reckoning, they've played Glastonbury more times than David Bowie. It's a night for teams, with up to 10 as the norm, though larger groups of up to 50 are welcome if you split them into teams. It's for ages 14 and over, so it's one you can bring a younger crowd along to.

The logistics are straightforward: doors open at 18:00, the quiz starts at 19:00 sharp, and it wraps up by 22:00. Tickets start from £9.00, which includes the booking fee. You'll find The Welly at 105-107 Beverley Rd, Hull HU3 1TS.
