I’m Not From London presents... * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Tuesday 2nd July at Billy Bootleggers THE YONS * * * * * * * * 9.30 pm Nottingham band The Yons found themselves back in a rehearsal room in Spring 2017 after a 25 year hiatus. Old friendships were re-kindled and old grudges were nicely forgotten, or at least forgiven. However, although time might have mellowed the band as people, the blistering sound of The Yons in full sonic flight convinced them that they still wanted to make music and that they still wanted other people to hear it and join in the fun. Using the magic of Facebook The Yons were able to add to the mix Chris Morgan, knockabout friend from their Beeston College days (circa 1987) and considerable singer-songwriter talent (Reporters, Saltbox and others). The band have drawn on their deep back-catalogue whilst constantly adding new material to produce a sound that fuses their 80s indie/punk roots with alt pop/alt country/alt rock/alt everything else. After receiving an overwhelmingly positive response at their reunion gig at the Gavaround Festival in the summer The Yons decided to rebuild and reform coming back bigger, better and “wiser” than ever before. /TheYons1/ UGLY MAYFLY * * * * * * * * * * * 8.30 Discover the unique rock vibes of Ugly Mayfly, a rock band based in the East Midlands.

Tonight @billybootleggersnottingham !

@kooey_band 9.30 In 2023 a brotherhood was formed between two musicians, one Myles Knight & one Harvey Duddles, to form a duo set to obliterate the UK musician scene with big beats and bigger riffs … they are known as KOOEY. Myles, with years of experience performing as a solo musician, and Harvey, with years of experience drumming for bands such as Raging Clue, Good Hustles and more, have decided their combined talent in song writing and performance could create something special … something with a bit of power, a bit of grit, whilst keeping the catchiness their music has always had. Only one year in and they’ve already made their mark across the county and their local scene, performing at festivals such as D.H. Lawrence Music Festival and performing at venues such as JT Soar and The Navigation. The lads are raring to go, with some huge new songs, exciting upcoming performances and a rapidly growing fanbase @dronequeenband 8.30 Their first gig for us! ‘Drone Queen are a Nottingham based Alt rock duo inspired by bands such as Cleopatrick, Dead Poet Society, Tigercub and Royal Blood. Beginning as a solo project for singer/songwriter Lewis, Drone Queen was born as a cathartic outlet for themes of toxic relationships, masculinity and anxiety. Soon joined by Elliot on drums, Drone Queen saw quick national success with their debut single CARNIVORE in November 2023 played on BBC RADIO1 by rock show host Daniel.P.Carter. Drone Queen entered 2024 continuing to release powerful, riff driven rock music.’ @phlinch_band 7.30 Nottingham-based 4 piece PHLINCH have put a modern twist on the conventional rock formula to create their unique sound. With an eclectic mix of genres and an energetic live set, they’re definitely one you won’t want to miss!” This gig is free and starts at 7.30, bands finish at 10 pm and @adamjay6712 will be mixing pop,rock, hip hop, surf and post punk til 2.30 am! ##thisgigisfreeyouareaslave #rubytuesday #imnotfromlondon #billbootleggers #gigs #nottingham #bands #diy #kooey #phlinch #dronequeen #nottinghammusicscene
