A live band tribute to the 2000s indie anthems of NME, with Maxïmo Park, Kaiser Chiefs, Arctic Monkeys and more.
NME'D comes to The Sugarmill on Saturday 14 November, a tribute to the 2000s indie explosion. It's a single live band playing the biggest hits of that era, so you'll hear Maxïmo Park, Kaiser Chiefs, Hard-Fi, Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Franz Ferdinand, Bloc Party, Kasabian, The Libertines and The Fratellis all in one night.
The set is built around the songs that defined the 2000s indie scene, and they're sticking to the well-known ones: no filler and no deep cuts, just the anthems that soundtracked the best nights, the worst hangovers and everything in between. It's a run through the bands that dominated the NME era, from the dancey hooks of Kaiser Chiefs and The Killers to the sharper edges of Arctic Monkeys and The Libertines.
The Sugarmill is in Hanley's Cultural Quarter, one of Stoke-on-Trent's most iconic live music venues, open since the mid-1990s and known for showcasing emerging talent alongside established acts. This is part of a UK tour, with dates at The Georgian Theatre in Stockton on Tees, The Birdwell Venue in Barnsley and Live Rooms in Chester before it lands here.
