The Prince and the Moths

Posted 2nd April 2025

Some bands get about, don’t they? Originating in Vancouver, Yeti Valhalla are now based out of Tokyo. What will they make of the ’fampton when they roll into The Black Prince (April 17)?

Music-wise, think classic hard rock meets modern metal sensibilities, with ‘much guitar shredding and double bass blast beats.’
You know you want some, and this Thursday night will lead onto a Good Friday. Literally. Which means no work. Go let your hair down and get a portion of the Yeti.

Support comes from heavy grungers from this Shire, LOKI, and Silence Mutant.
Marisa and the Moths are currently on the road in support of last year’s second album release, and the What Doesn’t Kill You tour visits The Black Prince (April 19).

The album did great shakes in the rock and metal album charts upon release last May – you don’t get any better than the top spot, do you?

MatM have been winning friends and wowing with their modern, accessibly rock-outs topped by Marisa’s next level vocals for a few years now, during which time they have played with artists including Kris Barras Band, Those Damn Crows and Pulse raves, Von Hertzen Brothers, and they are more than capable of holding their own.

As for topics covered? Marisa digs deep into mental health, toxic relationships, trauma and sexuality, so no shortage of lyrics to be had from that lot.

Strayers and Bright Black will support.

Eden Lole

Danish-Brazilian duo The Courettes (April 25) issued their fourth elpee last autumn, and The Soul Of pulled in some nice reviews for its content, and with the band hitting the sweet spot that straddles ‘garage rock, girl groups, doowop harmonies, heartache and all points in between’ there is a lot to like.

SBD wraps up its month at the haunt with Northampton girl on the rise, Eden Lole (April 26).

She will be familiar to many of you, with her ability to turn life’s most complex emotions into universal moments of shared experience making for a burgeoning fan base. Tickets aren’t expected to sit around for this one – which is part of her debut headlining tour.
If you want in, get busy with the plastic pal now and make sure to avoid disappointment. Tequisha will support.
