SUMMARY:Dacia Album Launch Party
DESCRIPTION:Tickets £10 in advance\, £12 on the door.Doors open 6.30pm. First band on 6.45pm.This gig is for a standing audience. \nAll tickets cover admission and a free copy of the Dismanibus Dacia album to be collected on the door. \nDismanibus\, local melodic death band and titans of the Essex metal scene\, are launching their magnum opus concept album ‘Dacia’ at the Colchester Arts Centre\, in what promises to be a night of truly epic aural brutality. “Dismanibus\, for those who have never seen them live\, are simply one of the most enjoyable bands you will see in the Essex area.” – Jack Fryer\, Metal Recusants. \nThe album follows the life story of a Dacian aristocrat\, later to be remembered as an infamous traitor\, Bikilis. From assisting his life-long friend and mentor\, Decebal\, in claiming the throne\, following the unexpected death of their king Duras\, we see them consolidate power among the Dacian tribes\, outmaneuver the Roman emperor Domitian\, to pressure Rome into signing a treaty on terms extremely favourable to the ascendant Dacian kingdom and begin to build Dacian fortifications across the lands north of the Danube. The story follows their early victories and subsequent changes in fortune with the rise of a new Roman emperor and seasoned general\, Trajan\, as he sets his sights on Dacian conquest. It closes on Bikilis’ descent into despair\, disillusionment\, betrayal and sorrow\, as the Dacian people find themselves on the receiving end of one of the only documented Roman wars of extermination… a harrowing reminder of what the civilised world is capable of in its quest for control of wealth and coveted natural resources. \nSupport will be provided by four of the best local metal acts in the scene today… \nOlympus – Melodic death metal forged in Essex fire. Old-school roots\, modern aggression. They tear through the boundaries like blast beats through bone! \nBy Virtue Fall – Progressive metalcore brimming with soaring melodies and brutal breakdowns for thinking headbangers! \nKillerkorp – Military-grade extreme metal: Slipknot meets Gojira with a dystopian message in every artillery-hit ri􏰀! \nDraugrheim – Nordic melodic metal: from mead-soaked feasting hall tunes to blood-drenched and vicious neck-snappers\, Draugrheim come to claim victory on the stages of all lands!

SUMMARY:Saturday Soul: Noel McCalla
DESCRIPTION:Backed by a top-drawer band with impressive CVs to match\, prepare to embark on a soulful journey with outstanding vocalist Noel McCalla\, who will perform his own authentic and diverse original compositions as well as songs by soul superstars such as Al Green\, Bill Withers\, Marvin Gaye\, and Curtis Mayfield\, plus performers like Sting. \nDescribed by Blues & Soul magazine as “one of Britain’s best soul singers”\, Noel is a world-class vocalist and frontman; his captivating control over the band and his audience interaction and involvement make for an exhilarating musical experience. \nPerforming a combination of amazing ‘groove’-based originals and some timeless soul standards in his own fiery\, high-energy style\, if you love imaginative composition mixed with an exciting vocal performance by an enormously gifted songwriter\, be there!  \n​NOEL McCALLANoel’s career started in the 70s with the band Moon\, who recorded two albums for Epic Records. When Moon disbanded in 1976\, Noel released a solo album\, Night Time Emotion\, produced by Trevor Rabin. He also worked and toured America with Sniff ‘n’ the Tears\, where his voice was integral on the hit single Driver’s Seat. \nIn the early 80s\, Noel formed Contact (subsequently renamed McCalla) and released the critically acclaimed Push and Pull\, followed by the equally well-received Hot from the Smoke. \n​As well as previous collaborations with master bassist Alfonso Johnson\, singer/songwriter Paul Weller\, and Dave Lewis 1 Up\, Noel really began garnering more public attention and acclaim in the mid-80s with the seminal jazz-funk band Morrissey Mullen\, providing vocals on their 1985 release\, This Must Be The Place.  \nHe did likewise on the legendary Icelandic jazz-rock band Mezzoforte’s No Limits\, while also providing vocals on Mike Rutherford’s highly acclaimed album\, Smallcreep’s Day. \n​From the early 90s\, Noel’s searing\, soulful vocals were featured with the iconic Manfred Mann’s Earth Band for more than 19 years and\, more recently\, with the Derek Nash Funk Experience\, and City Funk Orchestra. \n​Currently\, Noel is arguably best known as co-leader with Jools Holland’s lead saxophonist Derek Nash of the enormously popular The Wonder of Stevie show. \n​​Noel McCalla (Vocals\, Tim Cansfield (Guitar)\, Henry Thomas (Bass Guitar)\, Nic France (Drums)
