SUMMARY:ALL MY TRIALS/DEVOTED SURRENDER/EYES OF ALBION/ALMAMOR!
DESCRIPTION:Club 85 & Nxt Gen Promotions present… ALL MY TRIALS/DEVOTED SURRENDER/EYES OF ALBION/ALMAMOR!\n£8+ | 5.45pm | Sunday 22.02.2026 \n  \nALL MY TRIALS\nRaw\, gutsy\, and steeped in story\, this four-piece band draws on myth and modernity to create a thunderous rhythm-driven sound that both moves and mesmerizes. \nDEVOTED SURRENDER\nDevoted Surrender are a teenage rock/grunge/ metal band from Stevenage\, Hertfordshire\, delivering high-energy performances with raw power at every show. Blending punk edge\, indie grit and heavy riffs\, their sound is both nostalgic and fresh. A growing following and standout stage presence helps bring intensity and authenticity to each gig and location that they tear through. With Harry on lead vocals\, Ben on lead guitar and backing vocals\, Shay on bass and Dylan on drums\, this young\, all-male outfit prove to the moany OAPs that not every teenager’s out selling vapes in the park. \nEYES OF ALBION\nWe are stranger than fiction\, more intense than realism and just as the universe cannot be imagined neither can we. Sometimes loud\, sometimes quiet\, BUT always passionate We are\, just that; WE ARE! Davy Clinton (Vocals) Robert Kemp (Guitars) Tim Leete ( Bass ) Andy Mullins (Drums) The Eyes of Albion Genre? Well there’s Classic Rock in there definitely\, add a little Indian sounding twists to the mix with modal guitar and bass work\, perhaps a hint of folk rock on occasions. Power it with rhythm section which works from the very first beat\, bass and guitar melodically complimenting the amazingly powerful vocals and you have a rough idea of what Eyes of Albion do and are. The sound has impressive echoes of the rock style that startled a generation and a modern take that simply takes you on a journey with it. \nALMAMOR\nAlmamor are an alternative rock trio from Hertfordshire! Shortly after forming\, the band began working on and recording their first album\, “Shelter”. Originally from the UK\, Portugal and Greece\, these 3 accomplished musicians were brought together by their love of music\, which was reflected in the band’s strong chemistry. Unfortunately\, following the release of their debut album\, Almamor’s founding drummer\, Nash\, had to return to his native Greece. Almamor continued gigging\, writing new music and survived COVID with several lineup changes\, until eventually finding a new drummer late 2023. Now the band are looking forward to continue playing live\, write and record new material\, and perform to everyone willing to embrace the experimental sound of Almamor! \n  \nDOORS 5.45pm\nENTRY £8 advance/£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

SUMMARY:T'PAU + Grace Calver!  *** NEW DATE ***
DESCRIPTION:T’PAU + Grace Calver!\n7:30pm | Saturday 07/03/2026 | Club 85\, Hitchin. \nT’Pau burst onto the music scene in 1987 with the hit Heart & Soul reaching No. 4 in both the UK & US charts. Taken from the debut album Bridge of Spies. It’s innovative use of a rap verse by a white female vocalist introduced the world to the distinctive lead vocals of Carol Decker\, and the song writing talents of Carol & Ronnie Rogers. \nHeart & Soul led to a meteoric rise in T’Pau’s fortunes at home and in the USA\, where the track stayed on the US Billboard Chart for 6 months. \nAfter a European Arena Tour supporting Bryan Adams\, the band toured UK City Halls and Theatres as headliners to tie in with the next single\, the classic ballad China In Your Hand. Nobody could have predicted the impact of ‘China’ which stayed at No. 1 for 5 weeks – the longest serving No. 1 of the year.

SUMMARY:SLAPPSTIKK / THE LIME STONES / PIXIEBITE / PEARLESCENT
DESCRIPTION:Club 85 & Symmetrical Feelings Promotions present… SLAPPSTIKK + LIME STONES CO HEADLINERS / SUPPORTED BY PIXELBITE AND PEARLESCENT! \n~~~~SLAPPSTIKK~~~~\nA Leeds-born Clown-Rock band\, on a quest to erase coulrophobia. Nefarious energies emanate from this clown crew’s full-force foolery on the stage; join the circus\, be down to clown. \nExpect mosh-worthy riffs\, stupid lyrics\, and an opportunity to commit acts of violence against at least one (1) clown. SLAPPSTIKK loves you. \n~~~~THE LIME STONES~~~~\nStarting out from a poster at their local music shop\, The Lime Stones are a 4 piece independent alternative rock band from L&D who priotise creativity\, energy and fun in their music. Ranging from stoner rock\, psychedelic rock to even metal\, they take pride in being versatile and trying different styles in their own way. There is Jacob\, the jumping witty but introspective lyricist and frontman\, Josh\, the lost in the moment angular guitarist\, keen to experiment\, Ewan\, the driving dynamics\, feel and fill crazy drummer\, and Alger\, the grooving counterpart\, with incredibly personal lines dancing with the rest of them. They started out as band mates and have become best mates with the simple goal to make new exciting music and memorable live personal gigs \nThis is just the start… Stay if you like x \n~~~~PIXIEBITE~~~~\nFour manic pixie dream girls hashing together hard hitting riffs with cute looks. Pixiebite are a young female fronted four piece from Hemel looking to revive 2000s nu metal and rock whilst keeping their girly pop style. Pixiebite is guitarist Izzie\, bassist Milena\, drummer Ems and front woman Meg. What they might lack in height they make up for in attitude and volume. \n~~~~PEARLESCENT~~~~ \nKnown for their off-the-charts stage presence\, the lineup is just three best mates. Orryn ‘OJ’ Drackford on lead vocals and bass\, Indiana-Grace ‘Inds’ Adams on guitar\, and Liam Holland\, the backbone of the band\, on drums and backing vocals.

SUMMARY:***CANCELLED*** THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN : A HUMAN PERSPECTIVE

However\, his ‘God of Hellfire’ burned out fast and\, in 1970\, he returned with a new project: the prog-festival freak-show Kingdom Come followed by a varied solo career. Those initial four band albums\, by The Crazy World of Arthur Brown and by Kingdom Come are thrilling\, as tend to be Brown’s cameos on other peoples’ projects.  \nBest known for his flamboyant theatrical performances and his powerful\, wide- ranging operatic voice. He has been a major influence on a wide range of musicians due to his outstanding vocal ability and wild stage persona and concepts. He is considered a pioneer of shock rock and progressive rock and influential on heavy metal music. \nHe associated with Jimi Hendrix\, The Who\, Frank Zappa\, Hawkwind\, Klaus Schultze and Alice Cooper and made a cameo appearance in the cult film “The Committee” and also “Tommy”. His countless collaborations include The Alan Parsons Project\, The Stranglers and The Prodigy. \nHis best-known single “Fire” hit number 1 in the UK singles chart and Canada\, and a number 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100. The album “The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown” had top ten success on both sides of the Atlantic. Following “Fire”\, the press would often refer to Brown as “The God of Hellfire”\, in reference to the opening shouted line of the song. \nArthur shows no signs of stopping or slowing down and continues to record and release hugely inspiring music\, including his most recent release “Long\, Long Road” (2022) and the launch of his new multi-media show “A Human Perspective”. \nhttps://www.thegodofhellfire.com/ \nhttps://www.facebook.com/arthurbrownmusic/ \n  \nDOORS 7:30pm\nENTRY £22.50 advance (plus online booking fee) / £25 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

They toured extensively across Europe\, UK and the USA\, appeared on front covers of the music press and their debut album Chronic Generation charted.
