HOT PICKS   Ryan Leslie with full live band Saturday 9th February An exceptionally shrewd producer, songwriter, performer, businessman, and self-promoter, Ryan Leslie began making music as a teenager. He got a foothold in the music industry and by the end of 2005 had written and produced tracks for Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Carl Thomas, and New Edition. Scoring his own hit with "Diamond Girl" in 2006, Leslie is due to release "Les Is More" in 2013.   Stooshe Tuesday 26th February After supporting Jennifer Lopez and Nicki Minaj, as well as wowing crowds at a selection of major festivals in 2012, Brit nominees Stooshe hit the road with their own live show. Described by the Evening Standard as a "tsunami of attitude, sass and feistiness", they're live at The Institute this February!   UFO Sunday 3rd March Nothing would be easier for British rock legends UFO than to rest on their laurels. But idleness or a musical standstill have always been out of the question for Phil Mogg, Paul Raymond, Andy Parker, and Vinnie Moore. These guys are interested in the present, as proven by their latest release "Seven Deadly". Don't miss them live at The Institute!   Finch What It Is To Burn Thursday 21st March Post-hardcore band Finch has announced they will re-unite for the tenth anniversary of "What It Is To Burn", performing the album in full. The band are back together after an 11 year hiatus, splitting up in 2010. Do not miss your chance to see the boys back together and performing their debut album!   Tom Odell Friday 1st March Winner of the Brits Critics' Choice Award for 2013, Tom Odell takes to the stage at The Institute this March. A beguiling mixture of idealism (he wants the music to do the talking, preferably releasing one album a year) and self confidence (he seems to exist happily in his own musical world) becomes somewhat incendiary when coupled with music as magnificently formed as that on his forthcoming debut album. He's taken the nation by storm get your tickets NOW before it's too late! JUST ANNOUNCED Daughter Sunday 21st April London based trio Daughter take to the stage this April in support of their forthcoming debut album "If You Leave" due out in March.

The album promises to be a dark, brooding affair that showcases the ever evolving animal that is Breed 77. Theme Park Thursday 21st March Theme Park are live at The Institute this March following the release of their eponymous debut album, due out on 25 February. The Luke Smith produced album follows a series of single releases and extensive touring throughout 2012, which gained the London 3 piece a wealth of fans and supporters in the lead up to the full album.   Rival Sons Thursday 11th April There's a lot missing from today's generation of rock & roll bands: groove, soul, and swagger; but most importantly honesty and danger. Without these elements, or "ways of life," music loses its edge and its ability to move people. Luckily for the music and personalities of California's Rival Sons, they have not abandoned this ethos. They're live in Birmingham this April! Lordi: Tour Beast or not Tour Beast 2013 Friday 10th May With their operatic heavy metal and monster-movie stage persona, Lordi seemed a most unlikely choice to represent their native Finland in the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest, and not only won but also earned the most points in the event's history! The cult shock-rockers are back with a new album "To Beast or Not To Beast", set for release in March and a UK tour in May!   Cancer Bats Sunday 10th March Canada's favourite good-time metallers Cancer Bats have announced their return to the UK for a mammoth headline tour in March 2013!

Their fan base is ever growing and playing live has become as natural as the skin they live in. To Kill A King Tuesday 9th April Described as "rousing orch-folk", To Kill A Kings sound begins with lead singer Ralph's acoustic songs, around which the band build on with drums, bass, electric guitar and keys, creating tender instrumentals and climatic orchestral passages.
