After months of writing, rehearsing and making glorious amounts of noise, Bruno and the Outrageous Methods of Presentation are ready to unleash their brand-new single with a one-night-only launch party at The Old England Pub, Bristol, on Friday 14th August.
Released the day before on Bruno’s own Bagful of Walnuts Records, the new double A-side showcases two very different sides of the band. One track is a full-throttle blast of chaotic garage rock energy, while the other proves there’s just as much heart as there is distortion. Together, they perfectly capture what Bruno and the Outrageous Methods of Presentation are all about – unpredictable, uncompromising and impossible to pigeonhole.
But this isn’t just another gig.
It’s a celebration of independent music, DIY culture and the wonderfully eccentric world that surrounds BOMP. Expect a packed room, loud guitars, sharp lyrics, plenty of surprises and the sort of atmosphere that only comes from seeing a band at the exact moment everything starts gathering momentum.
Joining Bruno on the night are two of Bristol’s finest live acts:
MASSIVE SMILE bring their infectious blend of angular punk, noisy guitars and tongue-in-cheek observations on modern life, while Barry Jitter & The Special Brew deliver their uniquely off-kilter mix of anti-folk, country, punk and glorious musical chaos. Together, the line-up promises an evening that’s as unpredictable as it is unforgettable.
As an added bonus, everyone through the door will receive a free copy of Issue One of Bruno Bof’s Bits & Bobs – a brand-new fanzine packed with photographs, ephemera and the wonderfully strange world surrounding the band. It’s exactly the sort of DIY keepsake that feels increasingly rare in the age of streaming.
Whether you’ve been following Bruno from the early days or are discovering the band for the first time, this is the perfect opportunity to experience one of Bristol’s most original live acts in their natural habitat.
