Eye of Bon, Lavender Minds, Purseweb

Every now and then, fresh new bands find themselves rehearsing in the rehearsal rooms across the way at Aatma. A promoter or music biz body or other similar mysterious type happens to walk past their door and says:  “Who are these guys? I’ve gotta put them on”.  Such was the case a few weeks ago with 70’s trip rockers Eye of Bon and indie strummers Lavender Minds (now configured with a full band line-up), both of whom will be taking the Aatma stage on Saturday the 29th of June.

Joining them will be lofi indie pop band Purseweb. They have recently put together an EP, which will be launched this night.

Catch them before anyone else does!

Tickets £5 adv, £6 on the door.
