Saturday - 15th June 2024
Leith Depot - Leith Walk, Edinburgh
This will be a particularly special affair as the gig Fuzz Bat will double up as a party for Pat John's (of PAL and Riarki + Hersel) 50th and thus we've decided to name this show "Fuzz Pat."
Pat and Stu (of Fuzz Bat) have picked a fantastic triple threat of acts for you. Said acts are Fuzzy psychedelic garage rock quintet Dragged Up from Glasgow, the energetic and reverb loving trio PAL and epic atmospheric gothstress Llennett
In reverse running order...
Dragged Up: Fuzzy and scuzzy psychedelic garage rock quintet with a triple harmonious hydra vocal threat weaving and cutting through the grit.
"collapsing the distinction between high and low art like a toddler-Tchaikovsky twatting a xylophone”
Listen here & watch here.
PAL: Energetic Fun Delightful Trio formed by a lobster-clawed pop Svengali. PAL’s live shows have been described as "riot girl stand-up" and "speed dating for losers."
Listen here &
watch here.
We're on first, doors are at 7:30, so make sure to be early!
U18s welcome till 9pm
Fuzz Bat Gigs are safe, inclusive spaces.
Be excellent to each other

Leith Depot - Leith Walk, Edinburgh
What better way to celebrate Sha Rivari's 40th birthday than to have a right good shindig at the best venue in Edinburgh, Leith Depot, with support from yours truly (Llennett) and Cod O'Donnell and the Cryptids. And we had a super secret special guest appearance from the amazing Penny Black - what a treat!

Saturday - 29th July 2023
Legends - Edinburgh
It’s been 10 years since Llennett’s debut album, “Battery Powered” hit the shelves, so we put on a party to celebrate it, and boy, you came out and partied hard! We had a night of incredible music – stunning singers, brilliant bassists, sensual synth, glorious guitars & dynamic drums – put it together, and it was I night that I did not want to end!
​
PAL - An all-girl 3-piece band from Edinburgh with a boy drummer! Energetic Fun Delightful Trio formed by a lobster-clawed pop Svengali. PAL’s live shows have been described as "riot girl stand-up" and "speed dating for losers."
​
Thundermoon - Cosmic queer sounds from the moon bringing you electro-Synth-Wave-Dance-Punk! They make the thunder, you bring the snacks. Their DIY electronic drum beats are carefully crafted into the wee hours, with retro Korg arpeggiator riffs with punchy lyrics and amazing 3-part harmonies, with the help of many cats. Songs to drown out capitalism and dance in the forest with your pals to.
Thurs - 22nd June 2023
Sketchy Beats Café - Great Junction Street, Edinburgh
Newcomer old school gothy rock band Dark Hearts gave a gig, supported by rocky singer-songwriter talent Llennett.

Sat - 27th May 2023
Wee Red Bar - Lauriston Place, Edinburgh
A very last minute change to this gig meant that instead of Auntie Vicious playing, Llennett stepped in to support Suffrajitsu & Bufundas.
​
Suffrajitsu are an amazing punky feminist band with great songs to march and mosh to, and the Bufundas mesh different genres together to make kick-ass tunes to make you wanna dance!
There was an amazing performance from drag artist Butch Ca$hidy!
Sat - 18th March 2023
St Vincents Chapel - St Vincent's Street, Edinburgh
Fuzz Bat Gigs presents the Spring Equinox All-Dayer. A fantastic line-up at a cracking venue.
​
The Sound Priestess: "Multi instrumentalist, gong master, sound witch and one half of Chanting Temples." Organic ambient ritual drones.
Ali Sha Sha: Psychedelic dream pop "born from the memories of mountains, exploring the ephemeral nature of love and life."
Burnt Paw: Captivating alternative psychedelic dreamy electric folk about quests and adventures from a Wizard. May contain references to Dragons, Cats and Mountains.
Unwavering: Purveyor of subterranean stark, minimal and cavernous drone folk guiding you through that trip over the mountains or through the woods.
Bell Lungs: Psychedelic dream-pop drone ambience songstress. "Her music takes a freewheeling, magpie attitude to ambient, noise, free improvisation, psychedelia, jazz, post-rock, minimalism and folk, creating subtly shifting sound worlds"
Puppet Midnight: Alternative frantic angular indie punk solo bass with vocals telling tales of burning mattresses, puppets, animals and Greek mythology amongst other things. "Possibly the oddest thing I've ever posted" - TheFudlip
Maud The Moth: An Insect creating haunting, beautiful and hypnotic soundscapes. She "draws on a wide-ranging musical background, including traditional folk, jazz, classical, avant-garde and rock."
Gaze Is Ghost: Alternative, ethereal, spacious and bewitching baroque pop. "Spectral vocals and impressionist piano playing"

Leith Settlements - Leith Walk, Edinburgh
Back in Spring 2020, Puppet Midnight started writing material for his 2nd album, a Greek Mythology concept album following the journey of a human to the realm of Hades (The Underworld). It is set to feature collaborations from a bunch of lovely, talented folks. For this gig, he played it all the way through in its current shape.
The delightful pair of Zed Paysanne and Llennett will play beforehand as support to help enhance the magicalness of the evening.
So in reverse order of appearance...
Puppet Midnight: Alternative frantic angular indie punk solo bass with vocals telling tales of burning mattresses, puppets, animals and Greek mythology amongst other things.
"Possibly the oddest thing I've ever posted"-TheFudlip
Zed Paysanne: Matt of Zed Penguin doing solo instrumental minimal guitar pieces. Dramatic twists and turns with some vaguely country leanings and just the right amount of skronky sounds.

Sneaky Pete's (Opium) - Cowgate, Edinburgh
Krow is a band of 7 fierce women playing metal - what an incredible show they put on! You can't help but dance to their incredible riffs and feminist anthems!
​
EBB - "Prog... but with songs." What fantastic songs and an amazing guitarist and vocals.
​
This gig was super eventful, starting at Sneaky's until it was deemed unfit to open, so we had to move to Opium! Thankfully, they could accommodate us last minute.

Many thanks to Anderson Fry, Mike McKenzie, Daniel Middleton & Sam Maya who worked so hard to help me put this show together!

To kick off the night, we had quirky, upbeat happy vibes from Little Love and the Friendly Vibes, the deep, dark and mysterious tunes from Sacre Noir, the brilliant indie tunes you can bop to from Glasgow - Hot Jupiter and finally the brilliant blues rock with the most amazing vocals - Black Jack.
We were supposed to have a compère for the evening, but they cancelled, so Steve & Sophie from Little Love stepped in and did an amazing job!
I could not have asked for a better launch night for our first album!
