Exchange

What an amazing live band! ❤️‍🔥 An absolute gem of a discovery supporting The Amazons on their 2025 tour. Now very much on their way in their own right! 👌🏼

Sandhouse what a find and then Bleach Lab with cardigans cover. Great night and start of the tour

The band were great, the venue was very accommodating which made the show all the better.

Calum is an excellent show man. All of his songs are superb. And he has a fantastic voice.

Oh Wow, Oh Wow, Oh Wow! The High Llamas in Bristol on Friday was perfection itself - I absolutely loved it! Saw stellar sets by support acts Harrison Rimmer & George Gadd, two very accomplished British troubadours who play ‘solo with acoustic guitar’, punching out some clever and substantial tunes. Shortly after, onto stage strolled Sean O’Hagan and his merry band, including daughter Livvy on co-vocals, all very intimate in this small but bijou venue, which takes one back to great gigs and venues of yore. And the price (£20!) made me feel like it wasn’t 2025 and inflation madness! A lovely, melodic, chord-changing, sweeping & landscaping set of masterpieces followed, most of which I have heard from their albums, but each with their trademark orchestral/glissando/space-age pop timbre. Sean started with newer stuff, then halfway went back through the catalogue, like a lovely well-thumbed tome of treasure. A few sound issues didn’t spoil the evening’s vibe, abd the crowd were gentle, receptive and enthusiastic - I loved them all! Finishing up before curfew at 10pm was the Gideon Gaye gem Checking In Checking Out, played with aplomb and equal exuberance. Then, after ‘heaven’ for one night, off we trotted into the warm, dry Bristol night air onto home.

Awesome show! Opening band True Strays played a great set, blues-inspired rock with a chilled out vibe, went down well with the crowd. Heading were The Gulls, absolutely brilliant. Some very interesting new material and some fan favourites, had the crowd dancing - and even a (friendly) mosh pit near the end! The community-run Exchange venue has friendly staff and reasonable bar prices, all-in-all a super night out.

Incredible night!! Once again the Bracknall smashed it live. Loud, proud and awesome. Jack is a roll back to the 90s frontman. An amazing version of paperback writer. Anyone who’s not seen these guys get to one of their gigs as a priority. 10/10 live band.

Not only are their shows are amazing as they are, you sing, laught, cry, but they are the sweetest people you could ever meet and make sure they interact with everyone🫶🏻

Great gig, went because I love The Dollyrots and they were awesome. Don’t Panic were an unexpected treat. I’ve taken off half a star for putting the children in the show.

Amazing! From the great support acts through to RRC themselves! Venue was perfect, love seeing bands before they sell out much larger arenas. Great work Mr. Doran, you & the boys played a blinder!

Great show. Such an atmospheric voice. Band were really tight. Amazing to see such quality in a small intimate venue for such a price. Would listen to them every night for that

The most fun gig I had in a while, Millie as well as the band were engaging, getting us all going. Lots of dancing and happy faces ....

Second time seen them. My mate bought the *** it scarf. Superb night 3 great bands. Panic Shack excellent as ever. Don't shush me classic. Seeing the Lovely Eggs again at Swn . F*** it is the music that gets me through the working day

Insane performance from Obscura as always. Everyone was super, best show I've ever seen.

Amazing night. Supporting artists where also amazing. Made an entertaining night and one to remember

Amazing gig. Great support. Finally got to see King Buffalo after hearing them years ago. Totally worth the wait. The sound was fantastic. So many venues struggle with the sound of the vocals but Sean was crystal clear h hats off to the Exchange. First time I've been there great venue I will be back!

If I could give this more stars then I would.!! Barns was absolutely outstanding.. that man has so much energy!! Support act was good to. This gig was definitely one of the best gigs I have ever been too and will be first in line for his next tour...

Amazing gig, The Slackers have to be one of the most hard working, passionate bands around. Great rapport with the crowd, non stop ska, reggae, rock steady...the whole Slackers experience is a real heart warming experience!

A great show from a fantastic band - great on stage chemistry and excellent musicianship too.
