Saturday 7th September - Get Hip! with The Hurricanes + Get Hip DJ's

Making their Get Hip! debut I'm pleased to say that The Hurricanes will be playing our club on Saturday 7th September.

The Hurricanes are a loud Mod Garage band playing 60s Soul, R&B and Boss British Beat like it was 1966 all over again. Four chaps who had been around the musical block decided to get it together to be the kind of band they'd like to go and see themselves.

Hurricanes Clarke, Jones & Robinson spent many years from the mid nineties chasing the fetid corpse of the britpop infused music industry around in cult heroes Collide who put out 2 Eps before quitting. Hurricane Norton, having spent a couple of years being Collides brass section, would become the low slung bass playing lynchpin of punk/ska legends The Pressure Tones before they split. From playing covers in their first few gigs, the band inevitably started writing their own material. And even more inevitably felt that they wanted to record.

The bands debut single 'Cool Jerk' came out in 2016 on Let Go! Records with their debut album 'Let's Go!' following two years later. Since then the band have signed with the ultra hip Spinout Nuggets label and put out another 2 albums - 'Look Out! It's The Hurricanes' (2020) and last years album 'Here Comes The Storm'. This is a night not to be missed! Advance tickets are £5 + booking fee (£8 on the door).

As well as the band you'll have the Get Hip DJ crew of mark, Tony & Graham spinning the vinyl with a mix of sounds, everything from 60s Soul, Latin, R&B, Hammond Grooves, Garage & Psych, Funk, Ska and other cool sounds. Doors open at 8pm (band on around 9pm) and the music goes on till midnight.
