amy Love and Georgia south of Nova Twins,recently recognized as champions of National album Day and ambassadors for Music Minds Matter,released their third album,’Parasites & Butterflies,’ last year. They shared their excitement, stating: “we’re SO excited to be playing Amersham Arms on Jan 27th for Independent venue Week! this is such a special space for us, we cut our teeth on that stage many times in our teen years and have so many fond memories there.”
From our very first bands to forming Nova Twins, it’s been a staple for us, shaping our growth and helping build our community. We can’t wait to put on an intimate show to celebrate independent venues, we must keep protecting them!
Brògeal will represent Scotland, performing at MacArts in Galashiels on January 30 and The Venue in Dumfries on January 31, with support from The Rooks. Eve Goodman is the Welsh ambassador, scheduled to play at Caffi Isa in Mold on January 26, TÅ· Tawe in Swansea on January 30, and Cwtch Coffee in Pembroke on February 1.
Sybil Bell, founder and CEO of Independent venue Week, emphasized the importance of the event: “I’m so honoured that IVW continues to attract such brilliant artist ambassadors, and these shows really encapsulate what this celebration is all about – whether it’s Nova Twins going back to a formative venue that’s close to their hearts, or Brògeal and Eve veering away from the UK’s major cities to play in music-loving towns.”
