ABOUT THIS EVENT
FOCUS will blow the roof off Strings Bar & Venue with their mind-melting prog metal. This one's for the true believers.
If you're jonesing for some serious sonic mind-expansion, get yourself down to Strings Bar & Venue on the Isle of Wight for FOCUS. These veteran prog-metallers have been bending brains with their virtuosic, cerebral sound since the '70s, and they show no signs of slowing down. Prepare for a wall of riffs, dizzying time signatures, and soaring vocals that'll leave you feeling like you just dropped a tab. The intimate, industrial-chic Strings Bar & Venue is the perfect crucible for FOCUS's mind-warping sonics - no pretension, just pure aural alchemy. Doors open at 6:30pm, and tickets are a very reasonable £24, so there's no excuse not to be there. The venue's right by Ryde Esplanade station, so getting there's a doddle. All aboard the prog-metal express!
