Billy Nomates

A slickly delivered show, and a long-overdue return to Norwich for Billy Nomates

Skids

It’s been absolutely brilliant to hear these classic tracks from a golden era of British music this evening.

Georgie Hume & The Pity Party

A great set from a talented trio, and great fun to boot, Georgie Hume and The Pity Party are a band that will be welcome back in Norwich any time.

Cardinals (The 'So Young' Tour)

Cardinals are a band that will lift you one minute, release you the next, but will leave you feeling alive.


Josie Long - Now Is The Time Of Monsters

Josie Long - Now Is The Time Of Monsters

Yes, there was prepared stuff about grinding her teeth, a throwaway reference to Charlie Kirk, and a criticism of the status quo (situation, not band) but nothing compared to the comedy gold of the UPS distribution centre in Tamworth.

Ideal

It was all a bit bonkers, the surreal queasiness of the TV show trumped by the need to make an audience laugh out loud. And in fairness, laugh they did.

Hamilton

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Broadway blockbuster Hamilton brings the founding fathers to Norwich in a revolutionary performance.

Anglia Comedy Allstars

Plaudits are due to Epic for hosting an evening that was never boring and, for the most part, hugely entertaining. I look forward to the next time the Anglia Comedy Allstars come out to play

Esther Manito - Slagbomb

Frankly, I was not the target audience for this show, but I still laughed so hard my chest hurt

Alogte Oho & His Sounds of Joy

From the rainforests of Ghana, Alogte Oho brightens the rainy skies of Norwich with his enthusiastic Sounds of Joy.

Corto.alto

This electric jazz performance had me shocked with how good it was.

BBC Singers

Stunning semi-improvised sections made for a compelling listening experience, enhanced by some stunning solo singing.

Toast + Songs of the Bulbul

However many N&N shows you see, at least one Toast session should be part of the mix, especially if you can top it off with a Song of the Bulbul.


Malevolence

Brix and Bones

I usually try to surmise at the end of a review, but let’s put our cards on the table: what is to follow is an attempt to do justice to one of the most exciting, most exceptional meals I’ve had in a long time.

Danomey Kitchen @ The Stanley

A month in but Danomey kitchen are serving beautiful plates with a whole heap of great tastes.

Blue's kitchen made their name with their impressive lockdown takeaways, now this was my chance to go out, into the real world, and try it ........

Feast - Eliza Delf and the Wilderness

Here is a collection of songs to feast on, a taster menu of all that Eliza and her pals offer, one artfully window dressed in poignant lyricism, of love and longing and loss.

COMPULSION - COMFORTER & THE FUTURE IS MEDIUM

Two arguably unrecognised classics get the rerelease treatment and are well worth checking out.

Kitewing

Support local talent. Buy this album. And watch Kitewing soar.

Baque Luar - NNF 2024

Baque Luar is all about the beat, and that is what their first visit to Norwich will be remembered for, long after this year's Norfolk & Norwich Festival has ended.

Apartment House NNF 2024

The musicians’ performance was very respectful of the original album and largely managed to recreate its dark, chilling, chaotic quality while being able to add subtle touches of their personality

An Accident/ A life

Viewed as pure spectacle, this was the kind of grandstanding show not seen at the festival for years, thankfully forestalling what had been a shrinking theatrical component. The bigger question, however, is whether that spectacle served the show's strong autobiographical content.

Laura Misch - NNF 2024

Another wonderfully atmospheric music evening within the Adnams Spiegeltent.
