ABOUT THIS EVENT
Derby's indie darlings The Darling Buds bring their shimmering retro-pop to the sweaty back rooms of The Hairy Dog.
If you're craving a heavy dose of 90s alt-rock nostalgia, head to The Hairy Dog in Derby on April 12th to catch hometown heroes The Darling Buds. This scuzzy, low-ceilinged venue may not look like much from the outside, but it's the perfect intimate setting for the band's shimmering, hook-filled tunes. Prepare to be transported back to the halcyon days of NME covers and clunky CD players as singer Paula Rix and her bandmates unleash their polished but passionately played indie-pop. While the 16+ age limit means you might be the oldest swinger in town, the ticket price of just £18 means you can afford to get the beers in all night. Arriving at Derby station, it's a short stumble to the venue — no need to worry about parking or public transport hassles. Just get ready to dance like it's 1995 all over again.
