They have released Rejoice I’m Dead (2016)\, The Universe Also Collapses (2019)\, Pulsing Signals (2021) and now Unending Ascending (2023)\, all on Kscope. \nA dynamic\, powerful and explosive live band\, their music draws from the credo of the original Gong while remaining committed to pushing the composition\, performances and message into new realms\, paying no mind to nostalgia.

SUMMARY:EASTSIDE JIMMY! w. Ewe And Friends & The Collider
DESCRIPTION:EASTSIDE JIMMY! w. Ewe And Friends & The Collider\n£10+ | 7.30pm | Friday 5th December. \nClub 85 welcomes you to a gloriously unhinged night of punk\, feral funk and folklore. Expect sharp songwriting\, unruly energy and three bands hell-bent on leaving your ears ringing and your heart happy. \n  \nEASTSIDE JIMMY\nVeteran North Herts band Eastside Jimmy needs no introduction. But don’t worry- if you don’t know them yet\, you certainly soon will. This North Herts pop-punk powerhouse features local legends John Moran\, Stuart Dinsey\, Jon Thurlow (previously of Chron Gen)\, and SMASH drummer Rob Hague\, coming together for a night of loud\, fast\, and unapologetically punchy punk. Known for their sharp songwriting\, chaotic charm\, and high-impact live shows\, Eastside Jimmy deliver the kind of set that reminds you exactly why you fell in love with the genre in the first place. \nEWE AND FRIENDS\nEwe and Friends are a 7-piece genre-hopping whirlwind bringing together the best of disco-funk\, croonery\, and rock. This bunch of self-proclaimed “naughty\, arrogant children” bring a healthy dose of roguish charm to every stage they step on. With energetic boundary-pushing arrangements and a reputation for riotously whimsical live shows\, Ewe & Friends are as captivating as they are unpredictable- and far too much fun to miss! Think Talking Heads meets The Divine Comedy at a particularly chaotic dinner party hosted by The Kinks. \nTHE COLLIDER\nThe Collider are a Hitchin-based four-piece serving up indie-folk originals with a twist of the arcane. Multi-instrumentalists with a flair for the lyrical and the slightly uncanny\, their songs wander through tales of witches\, hares\, crows\, mushrooms\, and liberty- equal parts folklore and freedom. With a sound that drifts between delicate and driving\, they bring earthy melodies\, thoughtful lyrics\, and a set that feels like stepping into a half-remembered dream somewhere between the woods and the pub. \nTickets on sale NOW locally from the venue/H Town Rags (Hitchin) or David’s Music (Letchworth). \n  \nDOORS 7.30pm\nENTRY £10 advance (plus online booking fee)/£12 on the door. \n  \nAge: persons aged 16+ may attend without a chaperone provided they have photo ID – younger patrons can be signed in at the door and accompanied for the duration of the show by a responsible adult. \nEarplugs are available upon request. \nDownstairs bar open until 1am. \nWe are just a 5-minute stroll from the station; like all our gigs this show finishes well in time for the last trains North and South to Cambridge\, Peterborough and London. \nFor full up to the minute listings please consider signing up to our mailing list for information on existing and upcoming gigs straight to you!  \nAnd remember… Club 85 loves you! xo

DESCRIPTION:Club 85 & Nxt Gen Promotions present… DAN THOMAS/FLEETING MINDS/DON’T WAKE THE NEIGHBOURS/SHARPER SIDE!\n5.45pm | Sunday 01.02.2026 | Club 85\, Hitchin. \nDAN THOMAS\nDan Thomas is a folk singer-songwriter with an unexpected edge. With a background in hard rock and heavy metal\, he fuses the grit and passion of punk with the heartfelt storytelling of folk and country. Armed with raw\, honest lyrics and a voice that can switch from tender to towering in a heartbeat\, his songs feel like late-night confessions set to a campfire soundtrack – with just enough snarl to keep you on your toes. \nFLEETING MINDS\nMod/Britpop-flavoured\, blending melodic tales with soaring guitar pop. Expect sharp songwriting\, big choruses and the kind of classic British guitar sound that feels instantly familiar but still very much their own. \nThey’ve been quietly creating waves on the independent scene\, not just among their unsigned peers\, but also catching the attention of seasoned\, multi-million-selling artists! This December they step things up another notch\, supporting mod legends The Chords in London. Their debut double single\, Saying The Last Goodbye and Forever Just A Dream\, was mixed and produced by Paul Weller band member Ben Gordelier\, who’s also at the helm for their forthcoming debut album Tales of the Mind. \nDON’T WAKE THE NEIGHBOURS\nDon’t Wake The Neighbours are a seven-piece band playing original rock with influences spanning all across the musical spectrum. Catchy hooks and rich harmonies crash head-on into classic rock guitars and driving drums\, creating high energy performances with a reputation for leaving audiences demanding more! \nThey’ve already clocked up some impressive shows\, including sets at O2 Academy Islington\, Hoxton Underbelly and The Horn. August 2025 saw the Neighbours release their debut album Welcome To The Neighbourhood with a packed-out launch show at the iconic Half Moon in Putney. \nSHARPER SIDE\nTurning heads with their signature blend of chuggy hard rock riffs and melodic pop choruses\, they deliver the kind of set that feels like discovering your old favourite CD at the back of the drawer – only louder\, faster and a lot more chaotic. Uniting noughties nostalgia with modern-day rock and roll mayhem\, Sharper Side bring a slice of something heavy to the party! \n  \nDOORS 5.45pm\nENTRY £8 advance (plus online booking fee)/£10 on the door. \n  \nAge: persons aged 16+ may attend without a chaperone provided they have photo ID – younger patrons can be signed in at the door and accompanied for the duration of the show by a responsible adult. \nEarplugs are available upon request. \nDownstairs bar open until 11pm. \nWe are just a 5-minute stroll from the station; like all our gigs this show finishes well in time for the last trains North and South to Cambridge\, Peterborough and London. \nFor full up to the minute listings please consider signing up to our mailing list for information on existing and upcoming gigs straight to you! \nAnd remember… Club 85 loves you! xo
