Friendly Fires

Wednesday, May 17th 2023

The gig solidified them as underrated British musical icons that deserve to be upheld for years to come.

Rhiannon Giddens -Francesco Turrisi - NNF 2023

Sunday, May 14th 2023

...the concert commences, immediately filling tha vast hall space with the spine-tinglingly soulful vocals that have come to define Giddens' live performances.

Girl Scout - Gabby Rivers

Dead Kennedys & Piss Bath

Wednesday, May 10th 2023

Maybe a bit punk-rock cabaret for the purists but damned good fun nevertheless.

Beach Riot - Suds- Collars

Hockey Dad – Dust

Thursday, April 27th 2023

If the Aussies ( Hockey Dad) do decide to return to Norwich in the future, I couldn’t recommend them highly enough for a hugely enjoyable night.

Razorlight - Affleck Palace

Wednesday, April 26th 2023

...the band were really polished, they gelled together very well to create a tight performance-proving their professionalism and obvious experience

Maisie Peters - Cate

Monday, April 24th 2023

I left the LCR feeling lifted and so empowered. I am so glad that Maisie Peters exists for those of us navigating life and love in our twenties, but also anyone else that could be impacted by her artistry.

The Zombies - Bruce Sudano

Wednesday, April 19th 2023

It's an astonishing sixty years since vocalist Colin Blunstone and keyboardist Rod Argent first set up shop, and on the evidence of their performance at Epic they are still fighting fit. Rod Argent's keyboard skills were as nimble as ever, while Blunstone's fine voice was impeccable all night. For men in their late seventies, the combination was little short of astonishing.

"London Calling" Clash Tribute

Monday, April 17th 2023

All in all, London Calling proved to be an excellent tribute to a totally legendary band, doing a great job at keeping The Clash’s music alive and kicking.

The Damned

Sunday, April 16th 2023

Devoting a great chunk of your set, especially for a band that has such a powerful back catalogue, to so many songs off of the new album, as yet unreleased, might be thought brave to the point of foolhardiness, but hats off to them for having the confidence and commitment do to so.

His Lordship

Saturday, April 15th 2023

His Lordship commanding the stage from the outset and didn't let go, barely stopping for breath in between songs. Their set was over and done with in less than an hour, but was packed so full that I don’t think anyone felt short changed. They may have felt like a lie down and a rest, perhaps, not short changed.

Lottery Winners

Another great night at Epic – once again the sound and lights were spot on, and the staff are always so friendly. Let's hope that Rick Lennox and the team can continue to attract further contemporary and trending music acts like these.

Tom Meighan

Saturday, April 15th 2023

Everyone is going home with big wide smiles on their faces. It’s been great to have him back here on what has been a very magical evening.

Mimi Webb - Henry Moodie - Blake Rose

Tuesday, April 11th 2023

Mimi performed an amazing show, hearing her vocals live did not disappoint and confirmed how genuinely talented she is as a singer and performer.

EELS & THE INSPECTOR CLUZO

Thursday, April 6th 2023

Well worth venturing out to Anglia Square on a wet and uninviting night.

Dune Rats - The Miffs - Beddy Rays

Friday, March 31st 2023

OTHER HALF, SHORT FICTIONS, SPIRIT FOUNTAIN & FEASTS

Monday, March 27th 2023

Other Half, Short Fictions and Feasts take things to another level. Pavlis is blown away.

Undercover Hippy

Sunday, March 26th 2023

What a great night- a refreshing rendition of reggae music, self-described as ‘music with a message'..

Badly Drawn Boy

Sunday, March 26th 2023

THE STEVE HILLAGE BAND & THE UTOPIA STRONG

Epic psych-prog from one of the originators.

This came to a wondrous climax with an ensemble rendition of hit “Believe” bringing the theatre to its’ feet.

APHRA, SASHATHEBAND, DH TEMPLE & CHLO ATLANTA

Friday, March 10th 2023

A great intro to a new night of up-and-coming musical artists.

Suede

Thursday, March 9th 2023

The show was utterly amazing from the moment that they entered the stage to the second that they departed. Wow! That was one hell of a gig boys.

James Heather

Thursday, March 9th 2023

I would certainly recommend seeing Heather live in concert- even if classical piano isn’t necessarily your jam

Synth East - NIK COLK VOID, FINLAY SHAKESPEARE and ROBIN “MOLTEN MODULOR” VINCENT & STEVE DAVIS

Monday, March 6th 2023

A great night of challenging, inventive electronic music. Here’s hoping Synth East 2023 wasn’t a one-off and it will be back next year. 

Loyle Carner

Casey Lowry

Sunday, March 5th 2023

On the whole a great night, I would definitely recommend. Even if you don’t know his music I can guarantee you will be laughing by the end of the first song!
