Mayday bank holiday special with guest DJ Pat Nevin!
The New Year has passed by slowly, and not without its fair share of sunny days, grey days and outbreaks of random snowing or sleet. Fortunately, spring time can be trusted to be here in our temperate climate by about the end of April, which, luckily, is the time the next Unpop is on.
Unpop 7 will bring you all the things you've learned to love about the night - the free mixtapes, cakes, badges, the awesome tunes, the friendly atmosphere - and even more, in the form of special guest DJ PAT NEVIN!!
The capital letters indicate how really excited we are to have Pat spinning indie pop on the night, and this Radio 5 commentator/former footballer/general legend comes with an impressive dj-ing pedigree - he has played at pop discos to great success throughout the land for years, and his dj-ing was considered one of the highlights of ATP's (Belle and Sebastian curated) Bowlie II weekender before Christmas.
Expect to hear the likes of Belle and Sebastian, The Smiths, Pavement, Hefner, The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, The Royal We, Of Montreal, The New Pornographers, The Field Mice, Jens Lekman, Betty and the Werewolves, Orange Juice, 'Allo Darlin, The Wave Pictures and other pop classic.
