ABOUT THIS EVENT
Melys are bringing their ferocious Welsh indie-rock to The Gate in Cardiff — the perfect place to blow out the cobwebs on a Friday night.
Melys are the kind of band that make you wish you were born in Wales. Their ferocious, feedback-fuelled indie-rock is the sonic equivalent of a shot of espresso, with guitarist Alun's snarling vocals cutting through the din like a chainsaw. The Gate in Cardiff is the perfect gig for this kind of no-frills, fist-pumping mayhem — a historic venue with the atmosphere of a rugby scrum and acoustics that'll rattle your fillings. Grab a pint at one of the nearby pubs around Queen Street station and get ready to sweat. This one's for the true believers.
GOOD TO KNOW
?How do I get to The Gate?
The Gate is just a short walk from Queen Street station in the heart of Cardiff. If you're driving, there's parking available nearby, but you'll probably want to leave the car at home and have a few pints instead.
?What's the crowd like at a Melys gig?
Expect a lively, all-ages crowd ready to get stuck in. This is the kind of show where the barrier might as well not exist — the audience will be up close and personal, singing every word back at the band.
?Is The Gate indoor or outdoor?
The Gate is an indoor venue, so you can count on being in a sweaty, claustrophobic cauldron of live music mayhem. Perfect for working up a proper punk-rock thirst.
