The Zipheads play their ninth annual hometown Christmas show at The Horn, with a surprise appearance by Efflux.
The Zipheads are back at The Horn on Wednesday 23 December, their ninth annual hometown Christmas show. They're a St Albans act, and this is the date they return to the city every December, so if you've been around the local scene for a while, you'll know the drill: they play their Christmas gig, the crowd turns up, and the tradition carries on for another year.
It's a long-running thing, and the band themselves are slightly unsure of the count — they describe it as their ninth annual hometown Christmas show, with the caveat "they think" tacked on. That little bit of doubt is part of the charm; it's a gig that's become a fixture of the local calendar, less a formal concert and more a regular gathering that happens around the same time every year.
The night is built around live music, and this year there's a surprise appearance by Efflux added to the bill. Between the main set and the guest, it's a full evening of live playing rather than a single band running through a set and calling it a night.

It's on Wednesday 23 December, the day before Christmas Eve, so it's one of the last chances to get out for a gig before the holiday break properly sets in. The music runs from 7:30 PM to 11:00 PM at The Horn, in the heart of St Albans.
