Emily's Army, Lacey and Fierce Morgan

Emily's Army, Lacey and Fierce Morgan

Rock City, Nottingham

July 20th, 213

On Saturday night I found myself at the doors of the famous Rock City music venue in Nottingham waiting to check out tonight's show.

First up were a band called Fierce Morgan, a quartet currently located in Sheffield. 

Fierce Morgan had a pop punk vibe with very subtle ska undertones.  These guys (and girl) had loads of energy and certainly got the crowd warmed up and the night off to a good start. Check them out at https://www.facebook.com/FierceMorgan?fref=ts

Next up were Lacey, a quartet from Nottingham.  Anyone who has read any of my blog before will already know about these guys as this is the sixth time that I have seen them this year. 

From their opening track of 'Hometown' to the closing notes of 'Let It Go', Lacey never fail to deliver.  These guys put their heart and soul into every performance and are going from strength to strength.  Lacey always look as though they thoroughly enjoy every minute that they are on the stage.

It is safe to say that Lacey are building a following as I saw members of the audience singing along.  These guys never fail to impress me and tonight was no exception as the songs were performed flawlessly. Check out Lacey at http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqB3xu65NzdZMcwuXbVaaWA

Headlining the night were Emily's Army, from Oakland California. These guys are true unadulterated pop punk.  They sound very early Greenday (which I guess isn't really surprising considering the father of drummer Joey is none other than Billie Joe Armstrong of Greenday).

Emily's Army have a great stage presence and an abundance of energy and I think we will be seeing much more of these guys in years to come.  Check them out here http://www.youtube.com/user/emilysarmymusic
