Another Bank Holiday? Already? There’s loads of stuff happening at the Hare & Hounds this weekend so lets get into it…

Friday 22 May

BROKEN NOTE bring some filthy dubsteb to room 1, supported by the dirtiest drum and bass and mischievous electronic antics. Promoted by [sic] & Resistor. Tickets and info here.

Substance – The Reunion. Chris Read, Roc 1 and Mad Flow are back in the city and are bringing their bags of hip hop, funk and beats. Substance nights have been running for 12 years now and these guys have played with the best. Check Music of Substance for info about them and if you haven’t grabbed Chris Read’s incredible mixtape ‘The Diary’ then get it from the downloads page.

Saturday 23 May

One big event today because it’s Mr Elephant’s 2nd birthday! It’ll be a 12 hour celebration over 4 rooms and 3 stages –  live, dance and acoustic – as well as a programme of workshops and local stalls wih lots of interactivity for all ages throughout the day.

Sunday 24 May

Leftfoot and Funkbox present two party-starting talents – the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and Ben Westbeech. If you’ve not heard of the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble before then here’s a hint of what they’re about. Also not to be missed is Ben Westbeech – he tore up the Bulls Head last year so it’s great to have him back for another vocal/DJ set.

The other room hosts the launch of Percy Filth’s EP ‘Elbow Grease’, super-sized to 9 tracks of beats with some top names guesting. SonnyJim, Kosyne, Redbeard and Taharka will be your hosts, with Stig Of The Dump, Dr Syntax, English, EdoubleD, DJ Cro and Weetamix vs Loopskywalker (DJ battle) lining up to please your ears.

Monday 25 May
