Live music night with Catfishing The Bottlemen, a tribute to Catfish & The Bottlemen, and Sam Pretender, a tribute to Sam Fender, at The Drill.
Catfishing the Bottlemen and Sam Pretender play The Drill on Saturday 1 May, a double bill of tribute acts presented by DHP Family. It's a night built around two of the biggest names in recent British guitar music, with each act taking on a different side of the indie scene. Catfishing the Bottlemen are a tribute to Catfish and the Bottlemen, the Merseybeat-inflected sound of the North West, while Sam Pretender is a tribute to Sam Fender, the North East's Springsteen-esque storyteller. Put them together and you've got two distinct eras of the UK's indie-rock output on one bill.
The Drill is a versatile arts and community venue on Free School Lane, with a capacity of around 500. It opened in 1890 as the Drill Hall and served as a military training facility before a significant refurbishment modernised its facilities while preserving its historical character. These days it programmes live music, theatre, comedy and community activities, and this night sits firmly in the music side of things. The whole evening is presented by DHP Family, and it's recommended for ages 14 and over.
