We're over the MOON to announce that our favourite local psych-rockers and legends of the Norwich music scene FLORAL IMAGE will be headlining a day of incredible acoustic-ish music here at the taproom on Easter Sunday. And bank holiday means we'll be open til 9pm! https://www.instagram.com/floralimageband/
Joining them on the line-up will be:
Aphra - indie-folk-rock song crafter. Performing with a stripped back band. Sax, guitars and harmonies. FFO Big Thief & Angel Olsen

Robin Evans - malevolent psychobilly blues from beloved local promoter and member of much loved supergroup Snakemilk. FFO Nick Cave & Tom Waits

Jim Holland - Americana, fingerstyle blues guitar and folk singer-songwriter FFO Bob Dylan & Paul Simon

Nancy Dunnell - newcomer to the scene and member of Aphra's band. We're super excited to see Nancy for the first time.
We're continuing the theme of asking amazing local acts to pivot and try performing a stripped back version of their usual live sound here. As you may or may not know, we don't have permission to do big loud amplified gigs, but we can do acoustic (ish) stuff.
Think Unplugged / Tiny Desk type vibes.
BONUS it's the week before Floral release their brand new debut album...so come and get a sneak peak of their new material live and unplugged.
'Gone Down Meadowland' is the much-anticipated debut album release from Norwich, UK psych outfit Floral Image, releasing 25th April 2025 on the renowned Fuzz Club. More than ever, the band wanted to produce a brand of East-Coast psychedelia that reflected the natural lusciousness and glorious solitude of the immediate world around them. Over 30 songs were conjured, considered and arranged before being whittled down to a final 10 that epitomise what they do best - ten tracks of vivid hue, harnessed live power, all laced together in fluid lyrical harmonies. Taking inspiration from band favourites Woods, KGLW, Stereolab, among many others, a string of at-home recording sessions commenced over a 6-week period across the summer of 2024.
"A lot of themes are anti-establishment commentaries on the state of the modern world. It can feel isolating being bystanders of global concern in sleepy Norfolk, even though it’s easy to slip into a false comfort when you’re surrounded by vast space, natural beauty and friendly folks down the market. Gone Down Meadowland is that egoless escapist fantasy that still can't escape the world caving in on itself; Norfolk isolationism."
Produced by the band themselves, mixed by Hugh Fothergill of Volleyball, and mastered by Joseph Carra at Crystal Mastering of KGLW fame, Gone Down Meadowland is Floral Image’s first full flourish. They take the record on the road across Europe and the UK throughout April & May 2025.
