From it's innocent inception all the way through to 3 riotously packed parties in 2011, Pug Party gleefully moves into the new year (swoon). And it's from this we couldn't be any more excited about returning in 2012! The January detox will be over and most of you will have just been paid by the man, so what are you waiting for? Let's get on it - the drinks are ridiculously cheap! Even if you are still detoxing you can enjoy four fresh and fantastical eclectic live bands and DJs for free - what are you waiting for? Get involved and get pugged up, you could even be in our posh film taking place on the night :)

Once again we'll be at our usual quirky haunt The Victoria - "Hipper than hip Dalston venue" - NME
Full details below. Love, The Pug x

LIVE MUSIC...
L!GHTS
Move out of the way Art Brut we have confirmed one of Berkshire's best kept secret's - L!ghts. L!ghts fuse electro-synth, punk and hilariously profound social commentary. There is no better (or worse) political and economic climate than now for this band to be heard. Any song about Stacey Slater deserves to go to number 1 in our books - FACT. The BBC describe their shows as 'riotous shouty indie synth rock, akin to someone punching a glitterball' - what's not to love about that! Check out the tracks 'Stacey Slater' and 'Perfectly Normal' right here...

THE CRACKED
Phenomenal and infectious afro - beat, tango popster's - The Cracked? They are simply the best and are a Pug Party favourite. Who said pensioner's don't have fun? Check out their crazy video 'Hear Me Know' below...something is starting to happen...

TALULAH KILLS
This melodic four piece fuse the naughties guitar rock revolution (Dogs, The Strokes, The Cribs etc) with the moody seminal shoegaze and ephemeral music of 90's guitar laden pop. With choruses to die for, newcomers Talulah Kills are an addictive and wholly uplifting affair that will keep your feet tapping for days to come...
EUDORA FLETCHER
North London four piece, Eudora Fletcher are explosive to say the least. These guys play a speed induced, adrenaline charged, schizoid type of alternative indie punk that blends unusual cheeky pop numbers with angry dirge akin to The Horrors. Now trust me, these guys are 'proper mental' but in a good way - a little bit like your forgetful Grandad as opposed to Frank Bruno with a gun. Check out their track 'Talkartoons' ...
