Fists
By the time they play for us dahn at Tempreh, Fists will have completed a tour of the East Coast of America taking in 5 cities in 5 days, including dates in DC, Boston and New York. After all that globetrotting we are pleased to bring them back for a celebratory homecoming gig. By now you should know the rest - 6Music faves, various festival appearances including Glastonbury and Summer Sundae, a couple of 7”s, an EP, with an album just around the corner. To put it simply: One of the best bands to come out of Nottingham, ever.

Cantaloupe
The latest signings to one of our favourite record labels, Hello Thor, Cantaloupe feature ex members of the recently defunct Souvaris. Like their previous outfit they are strictly instrumental, but this time they are mixing together elements of krautrock, afrobeat and squelch synth sounds to make insanely catchy and infectious pop music.

Kagoule
In their short time together, Kagoule have already graced the Main Stage at Rock City when they supported Kappa Gamma and Dog Is Dead back in December. Whilst LeftLion recently described their Son EP as, “A mixture of blistering raw power with moments of subtle beauty”. They’re one of the most exciting new bands in the city and we are more than honoured to have them playing for us.
Selectadisc DJ's
Making our Record Store Day gig even more 'Record Store', DJ's from the legendary Nottingham record shop will be spinning a fine selection of tunes before, in-between and after the bands have played.
In addition to all of this, The Music Exchange will be continuing their Record Store Day celebrations and selling a whole bunch of records on the night including any left-over RSD stock.
Fists, Cantaloupe, Kagoule play for LeftLion as part of Record Store Day at Cafe Bar Contemporary on Saturday 21st April 2012. Free entry.
