Sarpa Salpa return to Northampton for hometown show

Sarpa Salpa return to the Roadmender on Easter Sunday, (April 21) for a special hometown show.

2019 is already proving to be a very fruitful period for the band, kicking off the year playing a very special show for Steve Lamacq as part of Independent Venue Week at Esquires in Bedford, with Steve playing the new single Casanova on his daytime show on BBC 6 Music.

The single  then caught the attention of Radio 1 who made Casanova BBC Introducing Single of the Week, which saw the band picking up national daytime play across the radio station on every show.

The accompanying video for the single sees the four piece each play very different characters and was shot and directed by legendary NME photographer Andy Willsher which has gained a whole lot of love over all the social media platforms.

Sarpa have handpicked the supports for the evening.

Special guest for the evening comes from Bedford lad Alfie Templeman who put his debut single out late last year with the uber-kool Chess Club Records (Wolf Alice, Mumford & Sons, Swim Deep, Jungle)

Every instrument you can hear on Alfie Templeman's Like An Animal EP is played by him. What makes this even more impressive is the fact that he's only 16 years old. Already causing a lot of buzz in the music world, Alfie's sound draws a direct line from bonafide bedroom indie heroes across the pond, like Homeshake, Steve Lacy and lo-fi godfather Mac DeMarco.


Indie alternative quartet Among The Citizens have collaboratively created their own distinct sound from a blend of influences such as The Cure and Echo and The Bunnymen with their dreamy, infectious chorus guitar, as well as contemporary artists such as JAWS with their lush and memorable synthesiser/guitar melodies. 


They have supported Eliza and The Bear, The Scruff and received decent radio support to boot

Opening up proceedings is the new kid on the block solo artist Jeana. Jeana has spent the last few months working with shoe towns finest producer Gingersnaps and put out a banger of a single last month 'The Feelin'. 

Tickets for the show are on sale now priced £6 advance here
