The Loveless at Brudenell Social Club, Leeds LS6 1NY
The Brudenell is one of the foremost and most popular Live Music Venues in the City of Leeds and is described by the Venue themselves as : ‘A lively and fun loving Venue that embraces Music and Art under a wide and diverse umbrella that has no boundaries.’
The Brudenell has been in the past most famous for hosting secret gigs for bands such as Franz Ferdinand and the Kaiser Chiefs. However, it has been a centrepiece of the Leeds music scene for a number of years, and hosts events most nights of the week, by local promoters, covering a wide spectrum of genres. It’s location, near to The University of Leeds means it has a large student following, which results in high attendance for most shows.
The name is said to come from the family of James Thomas Brudenell, who owned nearby Kirkstall Abbey after it ceased to be a monastery in 1539. He was also Earl of Cardigan, which would explain why so many roads in the Hyde Park area of Leeds are named Cardigan and Brudenell.
The Brudenell Social and Recreational Club has a long and varied history and was originally formed in December 1913, in the location where it is still stands today. However the Brudenell is not just about music, and other facilities include a Lounge, Games Room with Snooker Table, 5 Pool Tables, Darts, Table Football, two Concert Rooms, and Sky TV and BT Sport on large screen TV showing all major live sports events in HD.
Local Cask and other World Speciality Craft Ales sit alongside well known accessible brands, all at a fair price. Local groups also meeting there include Photography, Film and even Origami!
The Loveless (featuring Marc Almond) appear on Monday 15th December
