    On Saturday Feb 8th Jungle Lion return to the Notty House for an evening of packed sweaty skanking, with more than a hint of righteous Reggae in honour of Bob Marley's birthday (his birthday's actually on the 6th, but as his legacy RESONATES THROUGH HISTORY it's ok to have a party on the 8th) - we'll be playing a few of the great man's tunes mixed in with our usual belting SKA intensity.

     

    The gig is FREE, but we will be encouraging everyone to chuck in a voluntary donation of £2 on the door that will be given to help fund Peace in the Park and Sharrow Festival.

     

    Get your most absorbent dancing pants on, we'll see you on the 8th!

    The plan for the fundraiser so far is to have live music from 7pm - midnight followed by DJ s. The acoustic acts and bands will cover a wide range of musical styles and be playing 30 or 45 min sets. It will be free entry but we are asking for donations on the door to raise money for peace in the park. 100% of all the money raised goes towards the cost of putting on the festival. The festival its self is an annual free festival celebrating creativity, unity and understanding within the Sheffield community. The aim is to work towards peace and solidarity by bringing communities together through artistic, musical and vocal expression. Peace in the Park has been running since 2003 and each year collects money for nominated charities. This years festival will be at Ponderosa Park on 8th June from midday till 9pm. More information about the festival including how to get involved can be found at our website - http://www.peaceinthepark.org.uk/

    Hey there,

     

    I came on here before taking on the Notty in Febuary, to try and see what peoples thoughts on the place were, and got some interesting feedback.

     

    Just thought I would see if anyone had any thoughts on it at the moment, and if they've tried it out again?

     

    Things definately going the right way, and it seems that most people are happy to use it as a pub again.

     

    The pies are back in full force, and if you haven't tried one def worth doing so.

     

    Live music is on every saturday, unless bands let me down, which has happened a little to often for my liking,

     

    Dj's on most fridays, and quiz on a monday.

     

    I think broomhill in general is a lot quieter than say 5 years ago, and this does have a lot to do with less students using it.

     

    Any thoughts appreciated.

    Buried in the roots of rock n roll, blues and whatever came before is Soldier Blue.

     

     

    Sheffield’s steel walls have been taking a hammering since the formation of this rock n roll outfit in early 2010, leaving a blaze of riffage, irreverence and revelry in their wake.

     

     

    Between winning the Exposed Magazine sponsored Battle of the Bands to land a spot on Sheffield’s hugely acclaimed Tramlines festival and a television appearance on Mind The Gap, Soldier Blue have been turning heads from all sides of their home town with their live ferocity that burns with all of the rhythm and blues sensibilities of days gone by and their own modern edge.

     

     

    “One of the best live bands in the country without a shadow of a doubt!”

     

     

    Joe Amphlett – LBC Radio

     

     

    “Fusing the traditional sounds of on the genre [rock n roll] with a modern approach leaves them riding high in the slipstream left behind by bands such as the White Stripes and the Black Keys.”

    Hey everyone.

     

    Thought it would be interesting to hear people's opinion on the change of pubs in Broomhill recently?

     

    Within the last 12 months or so, the york, south seas and Notty have changed hands, the fox and duck has changed hands this week and word is that the Place will be changing to a scream bar before the end of summer.

     

    With so many changes most of the drinkers of Broomhill will have been affected in some way.

     

    Broomhill in general seems to be suffering right now, with less students congressing in the area generally, and stories of rent price hikes forcing businesses out.

     

    Any thoughts would be interesting?

    Bootscraper are making the trip down from Leeds this weekend, and they are bringing their energetic live show with them!!!

     

    A mix of county, balkan, punk, sea shanty, rockabilly, bluegrass, folk, gypsy and blues music means that there is no audience regardless of age, background or taste that can resist the musical charms of their wild and truly original sound.

     

    As always entry is free!!

    Dexter dextrous and the fingermiths @ The Notty House, Sat 2nd June

     

    Dexter Dextrous & The Fingersmiths are a six-piece funk & ska band from

    Leeds who have been causing musical havoc together for four years.

     

    We aim to bring a fierce and funkified intermingling of musical styles, served

    with a healthy dose of enigmatic theatricality, that’s so far left people up

    and down the country wiggling their hips and moving their lips in praise.

     

    Funk forms the core of our collective creative spirit and, as the band has

    progressed, it’s become our bread and butter; laced with a sonic weave of

    reggae & ska, old-school r’n’b and dance hall swing. Certainly, there’s a

    handle for anyone, and if our crowds over the years have shown us anything,

    it’s that they love to dance.

     

    We’ve played at numerous festivals, including Kendal Calling, Solfest and

    Landed, so the summer circuit is always a highlight of our year, and 2012

    promises to be no different. We also put on an extremely successful tendate,

    thousand mile tour of the UK in July 2011, to promote our first, selftitled,

    EP and a second tour in February this year to promote our new EP,

    “All Talk”, which is included here for your listening pleasure. You can also

    follow this link (

    ) to

    watch our brand-spanking-new music video and see the band in action.

    “Dexter Dextrous and the Fingersmiths are a band who fully embrace both

    mischief and melodrama... and have built a formidable reputation thanks to

    a good debut EP and infamously chaotic live shows.”

     

    - No-Title Magazine, Leeds, Feb 2012

    “A downright funky outfit, full of true entertainers with great songs to boot.

    Anyone with an ounce of rhythm in their bones will dance to every beat… So

    check them out now!”

     

    - Kendal Calling, July 2011
