Natural Jackrz
2026-02-27 23:59
Imagine Queer Acid House for the Hot, the Bold, and the Jackin’
Natural Jackrz is a new club night rooted in queer energy and acid house ecstasy. We’re bringing back the raw, sweat-drenched spirit of the underground — pulsing 303s, stripped-back grooves, and that unmistakable jackin’ rhythm that moves you. This night is for the beautifully unfiltered: bodies in motion, eyes closed, sweat glistening under lights. Think sexy, inclusive, and unashamedly euphoric. A space to lose yourself, find your people, and ride the acid groove ‘til sunrise. Give the dancefloor back to the queers who jack.

Tulpa, Live in Leeds (Album Launch)
2025-11-29 19:30 - 23:00
ulpa are an indie rock band from Leeds. Their sound contrasts detuned and lo-fi guitar textures with hyper-melodic vocals, creating songs with emotional warmth and sonic intrigue. The group consists of Josie Kirk, Daniel Hyndman, Myles Kirks and Mike Ainsley. The band have recently supported Throwing Muses, Pale Blue Eyes and Bug Club and have recently done a live session for Marc Riley and Gideon Coe on BBC6 Music.
Not much is known about Tulpa, they don’t have any songs online yet (Just a live video of the band playing in a chapel in Wakefield) but in the quieter corners of the UK’s DIY festivals and indie venues they amass a following of lovers of noise, melody and good rock music. Live their songs lean into texture and tone creating a dreamy atmosphere and distortion that feels like a big hug. The songs meander from catchy hooks into tangents of musical experimentation and guitar wizardry.
Their debut album ‘Monster of the Week’ is out on Skepwax records this November. It was recorded by Jamie Lockhart ( The Cribs, Mush, Drahla). The record is the first ever album to be produced at Jamie’s new studio at Lamigo Bay, a picturesque and remote region of the Highlands.
A Tulpa is a mythical being manifested into existence through the act of concentrated thought, like an imaginary friend brought to life but (sometimes) scarier. The lyrics on ‘Monster of the Week’ sometimes riff on the esoteric, strange and cultish. More often than not though, the songs are about the simple stuff – universal emotions expressed sometimes directly and sometimes more abstractly through playful imagery.
FFO: Breeders, Pavement, Yo La Tengo etc.

La Bise: Bunney & Oliver Kristian

A passionately-led party taking place in Leeds, spotlighting local tastemakers and deep diggers from further afield.
The night will be soundtracked by Bunney and Oliver Kristian, two selectors whose talent far exceeds their years. Taking dancers through all things deep, dubby, and euphoric, and moving seamlessly between house, techno and electro, the pair promise to keep you glued to the dancefloor.

H.S.Heron Presents Martin Manning, TBC , Gladboy with Art + Lightshow
2025-12-13 19:00 - 23:00
Avant-Pop, Hypnagogia, Queer Punk, Rock and/ or Roll
Art and Light show
Gladboy
Gladboy have one of the underground’s most unique and frenetic live shows. Teetering on the edge of collapse, they are confounding – occasionally ear-piercing – but always melodic.
The band formed in 2017, starting their garage rock racket in a now-demolished eyesore in Norwich. In that time, they’ve cultivated a prolific live profile, supporting the likes of Westside Cowboy, Willie J Healey, English Teacher, The Orielles, Brix Smith Start (The Fall), Laundromat, The Cool Greenhouse and Jeffrey Lewis.
Press highlights include The Guardian, Far Out, DIY Magazine, as well as BBC Introducing and BBC Radio 6 Music.
Following a sold-out run supporting English Teacher’s sold out album tour for their Mercury Prize-winning debut This Must be Texas, Gladboy are back with a full length album on the horizon.

Martin Manning
Conjured from a dream, the multi-faceted Martin Manning emerges from our subconscious.
Haunting the waterways of Yorkshire with harps and broken drum machines, they recite poetry of the mother hill. These Avant Pop Megastars forge fractured dance music with pop at its hearth, evoking shades of Cabaret Volatire, Dean Blunt & Arthur Russell.
“What a year to be alive, as Martin Manning turns 45!”
Draags
Hyper-disassembled queer punk wonkcore is a direct sucker punch to capitalism and the oppressive state. They want everyone involved in a frenzied ecstasy of queer rage and to share a radical message of love and connection.
Confrontational and deranged but also inclusive and fun fun fun!

Seven by Seven
2025-12-14 15:00 - 21:00
Seven by Seven is a friendly open decks vinyl playing session. You can bring along and play us seven of your 7” 45rpm vinyl singles – hence Seven by Seven – or just come and listen to others play. The 7” 45rpm format is the only limitation. We don’t dictate the type of music – you can play whatever you want to, and we relish that variety!

No DJ skills are needed, and our ethos is – no pressure, no competition, no egos.

Please get there early to put your name down. We draw names out for the running order and later arrivals may be too late to be drawn. We also sometimes reduce the number of records that some people can play if we have high numbers attending – but we do try to fit in as many seven record sets as possible.

Seven by Seven is a non-commercial operation. We run our sessions purely for the joy of playing and listening to records as a shared experience.

Vipertime
Born in the snake pit of Leeds house parties, aggro-jazz four-piece Vipertime have earned a ferocious reputation making a series of incendiary appearances at venues and festivals across the UK, honing their craft while pushing their line up of saxophone, bass and twin drum sets to its sonic limits. Music of joy and rebellion.
“I wouldn’t mind hanging out somewhere that was going on” – Iggy Pop
Marco Woolf
Marco Woolf’s music can prove complex to categorise, known for his introspective lyrics, dreamlike storytelling, and carefully crafted instrumentation—each element given equal emotional weight. His critically acclaimed EP ‘Francine, i’ was hailed as “light, complex, rich and immediate” by Pan African Music Magazine, with its limited 12” vinyl selling out in just 24 hours. The project gained widespread support from BBC 6Music, Jazz FM, and international radio.
