05 - Contrail - Pillows - 00:23:06
- Monday 16 December 2024
- Doors Open: 19:30 - Starts: 20:00 - Tickets £5 (£5.50 with booking fee on seetickets.com)
- With: Contrail / Welfare State / Dan Gifford
- Leeds-based contrail are your dad’s new favorite band—delivering a dynamic mix of melancholic introspection and chaotic energy. The five-piece alt-rock outfit will sweep you away with their wispy vocals, blazing saxophones, and crushing guitars. Contrail’s deeply personal lyrics explore relationships, mental health, and grief, touching on the existential dread of modern life. Drawing inspiration from 90s legends like Radiohead, Elliott Smith, and American Football, as well as modern alt-heroes Title Fight and Alex G, Contrail’s sound is as thought-provoking as it is emotionally charged.

11 - Brand New Bag - Beeston Boogaloo (live at Domino) - 01:01:24
- Hair Of The Dog - Brudenell Social Club - Saturday 4th January 2025 - 6PM - £7.50
- the city's funkiest faces. BNB formed in 2023 for an on-going residency at Leeds' hottest late night spot for all things jazz, funk & soul, The Domino Club. Born from a collective of musicians and rappers that coalesced around the Funk'd Up Jazz-Hop live jam sessions that popped up around the city since 2015, BNB bring funky and soulful dancefloor flavours to jazz clubs, warehouse raves & festivals, and parties of all kinds, all pumped with a beating heart of UK Hip-Hop.
Melding flavours from jazz-funk, funky & neo soul, disco and all things groove with the attitude of conscious hip-hop, BNB bring the party at any occasion. Already headlining Unity Day 2023 & taking bookings at some of the finest funk events and festivals including Beat-Herder Festival 2024 and regularly taking the roof off The Domino late night shows, BNB have been described as "Fabulously Funky", "The ultimate party dance band" and “funky hip-hop heroes”.
A truly professional act, Brand New Bag are equally able to get on the good foot and get those tailfeathers shakin’ in the cool sophistication of the finest jazz clubs, or to bring the party at some of the U.K’s biggest dance music events, festivals, or any other place to party. Brand New Bag are the perfect polished high energy act for any dancefloor.
12 - Hinata - Break - 01:10:21
- Hair Of The Dog - Brudenell Social Club - Saturday 4th January 2025 - 6PM - £7.50
- We're so pleased to have Hinata on the bill for this year’s Hair Of The Dog. Having caught them at 2023's Hyde Park Unity Day, we subsequently booked them as headliners for our open mic at The Pack Horse and then 2024’s Northern Green Gathering. They probably get labelled mostly as dream pop with the obvious comparisons to My Bloody Valentine, Lush and The Cocteau Twins, but this is no ordinary shoegaze band, as they add shades of Siouxie, The Jesus & Mary Chain as well as other goth influences. With creativity at their heart, they’re something pretty unique and need to be seen and heard. An incredibly prolific band, there’s loads of material on their Bandcamp page so give them a listen:

“a punk reggae ska band from Wakefield who played some very danceable music with just the right balance of each of their genres” Louder Than War
“The band hails from Wakefield, West Yorkshire and has been a staple on the summer circuit for 15 years or more. Their experience shows as they flow their way through a set that is slick, joyful and over way too soon.” Equinox Festival 2022
14 - Drop Leg Steppers - Refugee Of Babylon - 01:23:39
- Hair Of The Dog - Brudenell Social Club - Saturday 4th January 2025 - 6PM - £7.50
- Meet Drop Leg Steppers, your Yorkshire Reggae/Ska/Dub band, blending beats, rhythms, and soul-stirring melodies. Their line up has evolved and grown over their 10 years, and their sound is designed to make you move – hips swaying, feet tapping, and heart pulsing to the rhythm of their performance, bringing joy, energy, and the best of vibes to every soul in the audience.
Their musical palette is as diverse as our members, drawing inspiration from a spectrum of genres that span the decades. From the roots of Reggae and Dub, tracing back to the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s, to the modern rhythms of today’s Dub Reggae. But their influences don’t stop there, being also deeply inspired by Soul, R&B, Indie Rock, Post-Punk, Dance music, and Hip Hop.
Drop Leg Steppers aim to spread positivity, unity, and the irresistible urge to dance which certainly resonates with us at Cloth Cat and they continue to spread their message and music at festivals and venues across the north of England.
