Danny and The Champions of the World

Trespass

Trespass only existed for a couple of years in the early eighties. They recorded a handful of songs, released a series of EPs, appeared both on the BBC and the Metal for Muthas compilation series before morphing into a Blue Blud cul de sac. And yet, listening to those songs now - over forty years later - it's remarkable how well they stand up to scrutiny.

The Wonder Stuff

After almost forty years the Eight-Legged Groove Machine is still cruising along very nicely indeed and long may that continue to be the case. Giddy up Poppies. Hup, Hup, Hup, Hup and away!

Badly Drawn Boy

It’s been an absolute pleasure to be in the room tonight to have witnessed a classic album being played out in the flesh

T.Rextasy

T.Rex were the giants of glam, and the princes of pop. Songs such as 'Hot Love' and 'Get It On' became instant pop classics.


Lay Down Your Burdens

Lay Down Your Burdens

Mahan Esfahani - Whispered Spells and Bach NNF 2024

Esfahani was our notional headliner, but one that seemed at his most content when playing with like-minded musicians, all of whom were playing at the top of their game.

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.
