AMITY LIVE AT CANDY BAR
This Monday hosted the second live performance of the year at the LGBT student night BOUNCE.I was really excited to book not only a friend of mine but an incredibly talented young lady.
AMITY has a beautiful folky, light indie/alternative feel to her her music and her use of various instruments makes her talent shine through.
She is a one women band using a loop pedal, harmonica plus other contraptions that give her that eclectic sound that it so important nowadays with the high competition in the music industry.
The venue Candy Bar is a lovely intimate venue and the audience buzzed of her performance which sounded fantastic with the acoustics of the area. People had travelled far and wide to see her and the loyalty that was so clearly there was really exciting for not only her but for the general atmosphere.
AMITY is gigging around the country from Brighton to Birmingham so you have no excuse to catch one of her shows. Check her out... you will not regret it.

Love abit of live music!
So tomorrow is the weekly night at Candy Bar, 'Bounce'.
It is a LGBT indie/alternative night- its fantastic to be able to play a variety of music on the scene and because I started in the indie scene its even more exciting.
Like any night it takes time to get your name known and for people to come and check it out, from the start of Bounce it has always been a strong opinion by myself and the other DJ and promoters that live acts would bring a extra special individuality to the night but also really serve the purpose of a indie/alternative night.
Our first live music night is coming to Candy Bar tomorrow which I'm SO excited about.
We have the fantastic B.O.Y. These guys have been gigging all over the place and I saw them briefly at GO.GO festival, I was working during their set so I didn't really get a chance to hear them but I've heard some really good things so I'm really looking forward to seeing them do their thing tomorrow.
I will post up a review with my verdict on Tuesday.

BOUNCE!
We had the last Bounce of 2012 the Monday just gone and I just wanted to thank everyone that has supported it.Its taken a while to get off the ground but we are definitely on the way for it being a well known night. Last weeks night was amazing and the comments we got were very flattering and it was great to see the night getting such great feedback.
The press have also been really supportive and we got a great page spread in G3 magazine last month as well as a large advert on one of the pages.
Roll on 2012!
Heres what they had to say :)

BOUNCE
A lot of new things have been happening. One being the new night 'Bounce' at London's Candy Bar. It is the first night they have done that is indie and alternative and I'm very flattered to be part of it.
Indie music has always been the music I have played so was nice to bring something new to the bar. It is a LGBT student night so there are great drink deals.
Monday nights are always quite difficult due to the timing but we are currently spreading the word and in the new years hope to get some live acts it.

BOUNCE
Two weeks ago Candy Bar launched their first LGBT student night 'Bounce'.
I was so excited and flattered to be asked to be part of this because not only have I been a student for three years I also know my indie and alternative music pretty well and was so excited to be given the opportunity to bring a new and exciting sound to The Candy Bar.
The launch went wonderfully and people said such kind and positive things. Equipped not only with great music but the lovely Sandra Davenport had gathered a fantastic bunch of goody bags for everyone and the place was covered in lots of sweeties and goodies.
Tomorrow brings the third night which I am really excited for... the second event still had a fantastic group of people who are all really positive and supportive but after the launch night the second one is always going to be a slight anti climax.
The word about Bounce is spreading... its not going to happen over night but once people see what the night is about and see that we are here to stay. We want to have a night that caters for a taste of music usually held in the East London 'scene' and bring this to Soho.
Candy Bar have specifically mentioned that this night is LGBT. Candy Bar is for lesbians but all the GBT are more then welcome and personally I really hope we can see a great mixture of people coming down and enjoying themselves :)
