Bido Lito!

VASCO DA GAMA live @ Elevator Bar

Following on from June’s highly successful Deer Social, Elevator Bar hosts the similarly animal-themed BEAR SOCIAL on Saturday, at the recession-busting price of four hundred pence. And with a line-up as dizzying and well thought out as this one we really can't see why you'd not want to be there. Math-rock godfathers VASCO DA GAMA headline the night, which sees fellow angular post-rock tykes MUTO LEO share a stage with them. Vasco's Mars Volta-indebted eclecticism and groove-laden hooks have set them on a pedestal as one of the city's most forward thinking acts; Muto Leo’s particular brand of mathletics has seen them elicit comparisons to Foals after some rather dizzying recent live shows, and their inticate layers of ambient axemanship are something that has to be seen to be believed. BEACH SKULLS will be opening proceedings on the night with some chilled out, lo-fi surfy vibes, followed by the bittersweet rowdy pop of MARRIED TO THE SEA. With recent EP Pack Xerxes and a Line Of Best Fit tour under their belts this indie four-piece have been making strides of late, and their dancefloor-friendly tunes will be the perfect accompaniment to this evening of ursine socializing.

With a 2am curfew there will still be time for the BOMBARDA COLLECTIVE and MILK: DJs to spin some winning discs to dance along to. Milk: Presents will also be on hand to provide stunning visuals, while Elevator Bar’s interior will be given a bear-themed makeover by MR WOLF COLLECTIVE. If you’re of a nervous disposition we recommend you opt for the Quiz over the Bear Tournament: you have been warned.

You can get advance tickets for this event exclusively on bidolito.co.uk. After all, you wouldn't want to wander down dressed as a ruddy great bear only for it to be sold out now would you? - BUY TICKETS.
