Aethoria

Aethoria play Little Buildings on Friday 16 October, their first Newcastle show since they burst onto the scene in the summer of 2025. They're a five-piece hard rock band from Suffolk, with Ipswich listed as their hometown, and this is one of two dates they've booked in the north, with Edinburgh to follow.

Their sound is built on huge riffs and soaring vocals, and they draw from all corners of rock and metal rather than sticking to one particular lane. It's that wide net that puts them in hard rock territory, but the combination of heavy guitar work and high vocals is where the band sits. They've been playing since that 2025 start, and these dates in Newcastle and Edinburgh are billed as their debut shows in the north.

It's a straightforward bill: Aethoria are the only act on the night, so the whole set belongs to them. The gig starts at 19:00 at Little Buildings, 3-5 Stepney Bank, NE1 2PW, in the heart of the city. Tickets are £10 early bird and £11.20 full price.
