Gilla Band, The Bodega, Nottingham - 28th February 2024
I was really looking forward to this gig and it exceeded my expectations. Watched in amazement. Words slightly failed me for how cool this was. Incredible sound.

Gilla Band, Fabric Night Club, London - 4th December 2023
Girl Band defy categorisation; described by some as 'post punk' are neither post nor pre anything I've every heard before; four most seemingly unassuming guys sort of wander between their own left and right brain synapses yet manage to come together to pump something out from the middle, neither here nor there but right through you. Vocals distil Joycean lyrics through a Pollock paintwork as affecting as the sadly shortlived Joy Division sets I was blessed to have beheld in my lifetime. Stunning and stunning.
