Barfly offers a chance to catch new acts for nothing

Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.At London's Barfly, the indie-folk duo Slow Club played an intimate show to a crowd of ticket-winning fans. Next month, Kate Nash will take to the same stage for a similar free show. This is Beck's Live, a new monthly series of intimate gigs aiming to give a platform to up-and-coming UK acts to perform alongside more established names – and the tickets are free through the Facebook page.
The support acts are not to be missed. Rising indie-psych shoegaze duo Coves supported indie-rock band Tribes at Liverpool's Evac on Wednesday. James Endeacott, who signed The Libertines and The View, took the Leamington Spa duo under his management, and they have rightly been championed by Radio 1's Zane Lowe and Huw Stephens.
When Kate Nash plays the Barfly next month, she will be supported by the Newcastle alt-rock band Let's Buy Happiness, whose haunting indie melodies have already been heard on BBC 6Music and at Glastonbury festival .
