Hi! What would you guys say are the best bands in UK at the mo? I'm finding some gigs for Qa'a during November in the UK and I'm looking for some local recomendations. Best, Lucy

If it is live bands your after (and I assume it is), you could have a look at the HH gig planner and see what everyone is going to see:

Hey thanks, appreciated! When we played alone in Switzerland/Germany this summer, a lot of people showed up, but it may not be the case of UK, playing with local bands is a way of securing a show. We want to play in Birmingham, is one of our preferences, the thing is finding bands in Birmingham (or in the UK for that matter) which are kindred spirts, even if they are not the exactly same style.

We'll use the planner for sure, thanks a lot. The question intention was to know the opinion of british "conneiseurs".

I see there are a few question marks in your UK tour dates so are you asking about bands Qa'a might be able to play with in the UK?
November might be a possibility in London for Lunar Dunes if that would fit the bill. We last played in London a year ago and were not planning on playing until the new album comes out in February but a one-off might not be impossible. Or for SOLUS3 for that matter.

Come to Bristol please! I'll be there for sure. The Croft would be a brilliant venue for Qa'a.
I'm sure Fat Paul of Invada or any of the other Croft lot would be able to sort you out with other good like-minded local acts.
Best Bristol-related psych band would be The Heads without a doubt.

Then we'll see you there, in that club actually. We have been contacted to play in Bristol and the promoter it's really cool. If things work out we'll keep you guys updated. And thanks for the tips, I'm going to hear the Heads now, I remember their amazing artwork, though.

Hey thanks! the TBC shows that are shows that are in the talks to be closed, and the question marks are either that we don't know if we'll play in that city or we don't have a local band, or both.
So now is mostly orientative, there's a lot of stuff going on at the same time (we're booking a 2 or 3 weeks US West Coast tour with Les Aus too), and have news and changes everyday so we'll do big updates rather than update everytime there is a change.

Brilliant! Be sure to post the dates on here when you get them. I don't always check the local listings, but usually keep a check on here for what's going on.
