SUMMARY:LIVE MUSIC: Delivery - Dead Wax Digbeth\, Sunday 8th Nov
DESCRIPTION:DELIVERY hit the UK for a tour of intimate venues with swagger in their soul and energy to burn\, having just announced their third album\, ‘Zone 3’ – due out Feb 26 on Heavenly. \nThe sensational lead single ‘Measuring Cup’ is out now! \nThe band have made a huge name for themselves with their brand of caustic\, mutant garage-punk. An explosive live band\, their sound captures the sun-baked desert vistas of a Mad Max movie (according to Brooklyn Vegan\, at least). They earned rave reviews for their 2025 album ‘Force Majeure’\, also on Heavenly\, which plays like its title suggests – an unstoppable force of an album that hits like a battering ram and doubles as a calling card from your new favourite rock’n’roll band. \n“Delivery make the kind of primal garage-punk designed to peel the paint off the walls of small\, sweat-soaked clubs.” – Rolling Stone \nThis event is co-promoted by 2nd City Promotions and Dirty Sunbeams. \nPlease share and help support grassroots gigs. \nNote: This venue is for ages 18+ only.
