Live and Local is a monthly gig night showcasing and celebrating North East artists and bands of all ages. 

Friday In California: 4 piece heavy rock band from the North East, creating original music with gritty guitar riffs, powerful drumming and commanding vocals.

Rivet: 4 piece alternative/hard rock band based in the north east. Bringing loud riffs, powerful melodies and big energy. Formed in 2025 and gigging since early 2026 we’re looking to gain some momentum going into the 2nd half of the year and beyond.

STROP: Brand new Indie-Rock, but this isn’t their first rodeo, between them they’ve spent years playing, writing, and performing in different bands before coming together. Making Northern Indie-Rock, packed with riffs and hooks, from the first riff to the final chorus, it’s not one to miss.
