In recent months Esquires has hosted gigs by many of the hottest new bands, such as Crystal Castles, Les Savy Fav, Hadouken!, Los Campesinos, Holy F**k, Lightspeed Champion, Art Brut, Joe Lean and the Jing Jong Jang, Late of the Pier, Enter Shikari, Iglu and Hartley, F**ked Up, Au Revoir Simone, and Glasvegas.
Esquires is also host to regular club nights. On a Friday you can dance the night away at the Fuzzbox, playing the 'greatest hits of Esquires', and on a Saturday the place to be seen is the Kaleidoscope, playing all the latest alternative tunes from the hit parade. If that isn't enough for you, there are regular 'impromptu' nights catering to all tastes, metal, brit pop, motown & northern soul nights regularly featuring in the listings.
By signing up as one of our mates, we'll endeavour to keep you up to date with everything going on at the club, as well as giving you the opportunity to listen to some tracks by forthcoming artists.
