Sometimes you have to move forward in order to see where you started out—and the hardscrabble wisdom that one gains from that type of journey forms the backbone of Dave Hause’s third full-length, Bury Me In Philly. “Punk rock guilt is a real thing,” the lifelong Philadelphian says from his new home in California. “I like to make rock n’ roll music because that’s what I love and I don’t care if Zeppelin or the Stones aren’t cool to the punks… it’s cool to me and that’s what ma...

Space vibes, nihilistic party anthems, immersive experiences and “future punk with a FUCK for good measure”: welcome, dear reader, to the weird and wonderful world of London “industrial noise-punk” duo Black Futures.
Their buoyant take on traditional industrial rock sits somewhere between Nine Inch Nails, Beastie Boys and Death From Above 1979, and is, they say, meant to “feel like all of existence is smacking you in the face and making you just stare in awe at its absurd diversity and scale”. Really, you just have to listen to it yourself to work out what they mean.

A powerhouse performer with a giant, soul-filled voice and commanding stage presence, award winning vocalist Matt Andersen will celebrate the release of his tenth studio album with a trip to The Bodega on 25th March. Tickets are on sale from http://alt.tkts.me/tl/6vv2...

Having just released their epic 10-minute new single 'Simpatico People' , Manchester trio W. H. Lung will bring their hypnotic rhythms to The Bodega on 14th May.
W. H. Lung is a recording project founded in Manchester in mid-2016. Its first single to yield is the dream-like and shifting ‘Inspiration!’, recorded at The Nave in Leeds and produced by Matt Peel (Eagulls). A song that speaks to the ideas of eternity, belonging and meaninglessness, it takes the shape of a kraut/psy...ch peregrination; persevering but never dull, and bringing it home before the break. The motorik nature of the track stems from W. H. Lung’s writing ethic which, with an Alesis drum machine at its core, aims to create a surrounding maelstrom of ethereal circuits and hypnotic rhythms. ‘Inspiration!’ will be released via the project’s own label Hed Glo Inc. on 25/11. W. H. Lung continue to write and record.

Went to see Laurence Jones last night and the sound was excellent.nice venue and friendly staff...lovely punters too

Top drawer attitude from the people in here. I didn’t like the pint I ordered. Nothing wrong with it according the guy in here. Fair enough but he just asked me what drink I wanted and gave it me FOC. Great attitude. Well done Bodega.

This place is where dreams are made, prices are wicked, the Bodega Lager is basically holy water and the staff are pure class, I'd recommend this place to anyone who enjoys music and a friendly atmosphere!

This is the perfect place to see a band. Intimate, great sound and always a good atmosphere. We've seen some cracking gigs here. Drink prices are very reasonable for city centre bar too.

One of the staff had stinky fly breath, however could carry 8 pints at once (which made up for the breath)

One of my favourite venues, helpful and friendly staff, good sounds, lights that switch on and off and top crowds.



Would recommend everything about the venue apart from the stairs, but they are good for cardio.

Intimate venue, book some amazing acts and tickets are cheap. Always have a good night on here. Some cracking craft beers on too.

I've lost count of the amount of the gigs I've been to in this great venue. I don't I've ever seen a 'shite' one but some stick in the memory, more than others. I quite enjoyed The Hijinks and it was obvious that there were a lot of 'locals' present to see and enjoy them, so much so, that it was noticeable how much the crowd thinned out for Francobollo, which pi**ed me off a bit, because they were superb and deserved a bigger audience. For The Hijinks, think Deep Purple crossed with early Horrors. Francobollo have a lot of quirky time signature changes but great songs. Great gig.

Honestly one of the best venues I've ever been to. As someone who loves live music, The Bodega do a great job of showcasing some very talented people.

Great venue! Great night ���. Atmosphere was great and bar staff very friendly and efficient. Jesse Malin was better than ever. Looking forward to my next visit to The Bodega �

Great bar, great atmosphere, great music - only downside is the barman told me that the single measure is pretty much a double size and then proceeded to pour a double even though I wanted a single. I'm may be wrong but I thought a double measure has to be 50ml and a single 25ml? Not going to put the rating down however as I'm guessing they may have been new!

First time in Nottingham came to see Howie Payne the bodega is awesome, brilliant tunes and an awesome selection of beers and craft ales, will be returning soon as I had to drive this time

Came to watch the brilliant Carl North and the Lonely hearts who We're amazing and we loved the place. The atmosphere was amazing. The cocktails were superb as we're the bar staff.. Can't wait to come again. Love Notts and The Bodega

Awesome venue :) I've been around 4-5 times now and the atmosphere is always great friendly staff love the whole feel of the place

Always loved the bodega, I should visit more often. Seen some great bands here, fab small venue. The beer's often good and staff friendly.

This would have been a 5 star review as I thought the venue was great, however we had an issue with one of the bouncers who was unnecessarily rude, intimidating and unprofessional, this made us feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome, we tried not to let this ruin our night but it certainly affected us.

Excellent music venue, small but that makes the experience better. One gripe, real ale on at downstairs bar only but don’t let that put you off.

Had a good night watching local bands, i did have to wait over half an hour to get my first drink at 7pm when it was far from busy �

First time here and steep stairs to get in and first impression was small square space with a stage. Nowhere to sit and have a drink or to even put down your drink...the bar sells no bitter, just a few lagers and one cider (on draught)...sound was poor but luckily Bad Touch made the best of it. £15 to get in so i expected a bit more..won't be rushing back anytime soon.
