Calling all Rebel Scum, Scoundrels, Scruffy Looking Nerf Herders and yes, even Imperials… This is the gig you’ve been looking for… as Dev Bros Promotions proudly presents the ultimate Sci Fi & Movie Cantina Band from a Galaxy Far Far Away… Blues Harvest at The Brickyard on Saturday 31st August! Epic Hits, Iconic Themes – One Galactic Experience!

Blues Harvest are a pop culture party band who have been delighting audiences at comic-cons, space centres and cantinas across the galaxy for over a decade.

We want to turn this gig into the ultimate geek night out, Cosplay is encouraged, and we will also be hosting a Cosplay Competition on the night, with the winners as chosen by Blues Harvest themselves receiving an out of this world cash prize of £100!

Adapting their name from ‘Blue Harvest’ (the fake working title used to hide the 1982 production of Return of the Jedi) the band first performed their blend of geek culture with movie themes and popular hits to an audience of Star Wars fans and celebrities at a convention in 2013, and since then have built up a most impressive reputation as the go-to party band for geek events.

The UK based six-piece consists of Darth Paul (vocals & percussion), Lapti Nik (guitar & vocals), Ad Bane (guitar & backing vocals), Androo-Detoo (keyboards & backing vocals), Bass Windu (bass guitar) and Andylorian (drums & backing vocals).

This talented sextet effortlessly fuse geek culture, nostalgia and energetic performances at their memorable live shows, blending their musical influences with fandom culture to result in an uplifting set of timeless movie bangers (Power of Love, Ghostbusters, Flash, Footloose), movie and TV soundtracks (Star Wars, The Mandalorian, Doctor Who, Red Dwarf), 70s awesome mixtape highlights (Hooked on a Feeling, Mr Blue Sky) and plenty of surprises along the way!

Their live shows are a multimedia feast, with movie and TV footage being projected along with the music, evoking a nostalgic and crowd-pleasing experience.

Since forming, Blues Harvest have had the opportunity of playing at various comic-cons, space centres and cantinas across the galaxy. Notable highlights include Disneyland Paris, Star Wars Celebration Chicago, Star Wars Celebration Europe After Party CANTINA at the O2 Arena Indigo (Twice), The National Space Centre, The Forge, Bluedot Festival and many more!

Along the way the band have collaborated with notable celebrities, such as Ray Parker Jr (Ghostbusters), David W Collins (Star Wars), David Bradley (Game of Thrones / Harry Potter), Taylor Gray & Vanessa Marshall (Star Wars Rebels), Jett Lucas (Star Wars) and Mike Quinn (Star Wars / Labyrinth).
