Free Christmas party with live music from Cheap Suits, Pixelstorm, Isaac Neilson and Mr Pineapple at The Purple Turtle in Reading.
Radio Wigwam and Wigwam LIVE are celebrating Christmas with a party at The Purple Turtle in Reading on Thursday 10 December, hosted by Radio Wigwam Grassroots Connect. It's a four-act bill that pulls from a few different corners of the indie and rock world, so the night changes shape as it goes.
Cheap Suits open things out as a no-nonsense indie band, the kind that keeps it simple with big riffs and bigger choruses. After them comes Pixelstorm, an award-winning electro solo act, which shifts the evening from guitars to something more electronic. Isaac Neilson follows on — an indie rock singer-songwriter and producer originally from Buxton. The night is rounded off by Mr Pineapple, a four-piece serving up riffy prog rock with a bit of millennial nostalgia thrown in.
Between the four of them, you've got indie, electro, singer-songwriter, and prog rock all on one stage. It's a fair bit of ground to cover in one evening, and the bill runs from the guitar-heavy sound of Cheap Suits through to the electronic side of Pixelstorm, before landing on Neilson's indie rock and Mr Pineapple's prog. If you're not sure which one you'll like best, you'll get to hear them all in the same room.
