The Utopia Strong - The Black Prince, Northampton

9 May 2026

Psychedelic, ambient trio The Utopia Strong headlined The Black Prince as part of their UK tour. The band features legendary former snooker player Steve Davis alongside Kavus Torabi and Michael J. York. They were joined by Northants electronic duo Tval. Great turn out for this one, with a lot of people keen to meet Davis who was happy to pose for photos and sign things for people. Not my cup of tea musically, but still the first time the venue has probably had a world champion of Davis' magnitude in the...

The Boo Radleys - The Black Prince, Northampton

3 May 2026

Indie rockers The Boo Radleys were in Northampton to headline The Black Prince as part of their UK tour to support their new album In Spite Of Everything. The band are best known for their 1995 Wake Up Boo which was a huge hit in the UK and reached number nine in the UK singles chart. There was a great turn out for this one with the venue packed for The Boo Radleys. Enjoyed it, but I can't claim to be a huge fan as they're from an indie scene which pre-dates me getting into the genre. Probably a generation or so too...

Weirdoe - The Black Prince, Northampton

10 April 2026

Melanie Baker - The Black Prince, Northampton

6 February 2026

Melanie Baker headlined The Black Prince as part of a short run of gigs by the Newcastle singer-songwriter. Melanie was previewing tracks from her forthcoming debut album 'Somebody Help Me, I’m Being Spontaneous!'. To be honest, her popping up on the venue's gig listings was the first time I'd heard of her, but absolutely loved her take on indie rock. Lots of 'slacker indie / Weezer / college rock' vibes. Also, amusing stories about slug infestations too. What more do you want! More photos from gigs at The...

Return Of The Mac - The Black Prince, Northampton

28 December 2025

There's always 'one' gig over the Christmas and New Year period which everyone is out for - and this year it was Return Of The Mac. I don't usually go in for cover bands, but this collective of hugely talented Northants musicians do a fantastic set of Fleetwood Mac songs. It was probably the busiest I've ever seen the venue, which crowed packed all the way to doors at the back. More photos of gigs from The Black Prince are available on this site here.

Opus Kink - The Black Prince, Northampton

28 August 2025

Opus Kink were back at The Black Prince as part of the band's latest UK tour for another night of jazz infused post-punk. It's at least the third time I've seen the band and while I'm still not sold - the rate at which this band are picking up fans across the country puts me firmly in the minority. (I generally joke to the same few people that I like simple music - of which Opus Kink aren't!) Joining them at The Black Prince were Daffodils and Slag, the former who incorporated live pottery into their performance....

11 July 2025

Hull shoegaze quartet bdrmm returned to the region to headline The Black Prince as part of promoter Picky New's second anniversary celebrations. bdrmm released their ace third album Microtonic this year, a record which saw the band meld their shoegaze roots further with electronic elements.

Day four of Independent Venue Week saw Heavy Lungs headline The Black Prince.

A retrospective upload this one - and not a gig I remember much about - other than it being a headline gig by PleasureInc. with support from Thistle!
