The Rosadocs

The Rosadocs are playing The Drill on Wednesday 11 November, their only Lincoln date this autumn. They're a five-piece alt-rock and indie band from the Sheffield area, and they've been on the road quite a bit lately — they sold out a UK tour in spring 2026, so this is one of their first dates back in the city since then.

They've been around since 2017, and things moved fast from the start: within six months of forming, they were asked to support The Sherlocks at their sold-out hometown show in Sheffield. Since then they've played countless gigs and appeared at festivals like Tramlines and Morborough Music Festival. They've shared stages with Madness, The Sherlocks and The Lathums, and more recently supported Lottery Winners, The Enemy and Mericans.

Their sound is built on heartfelt lyrics, guitar-driven melodies and the kind of big choruses that work in a larger room. That's probably why they're cited as the most requested independent act on the BBC East Midlands Radio Network, with backing from Radio X, XS Manchester and several BBC Introducing stations. It's a set that sits comfortably in the alt-rock and indie space, and they've spent the last few years playing their way up the support bill.

The Drill itself opened in 1890 as a military training facility and now works as a versatile arts and community venue with a capacity of around 500. Doors open at 19:00 on the night, and general admission standing is £18.70 including fees.
