The Amateurs set to headline Impact
Prize-winning indie-pop group The Amateurs will headline Impact on Friday 15 October at O’Neills, Broad Street.
The Birmingham-based band have played support slots for UK chart-toppers Athlete and in June this year won a competition to have their song featured on an advert for electronics giant Wacom.
Kerrang! Radio describe the four-piece as, ‘easily one of the most talented bands that we’ve supported,’ predicting: ‘The Amateurs are surely now set to move it on to the next level’.
The band will be supported by The Broken, a simmering, energetic rock outfit fronted by local legend Andrew Gordon, who make their full live debut at the event.
Organiser Mike Blaber enthuses, ‘Impact is back with a huge set that promises to be the best so far.
‘The Amateurs’ indie-rock headline set will blow you away. And with Andrew Gordon’s The Broken supporting, this night is truly not to be missed!’
Impact’s reputation as one of the premier nights for promoting local music talent has been gathering pace since it started in 2009. Previous headline acts have included This Beautiful Thief and The Black & Reds.
Entry is free. Doors open at 8pm. For further details and information log on to www.theoasischurch.com/impact.
