]]>PWEI were one of the first groups to blend heavy rock sounds with rap and electronica in the late '80s. The four-piece from Stourbridge made their name with tracks such as Bulletproof and Get The Girl! Kill The Baddies! and they became notorious for their incendiary live shows, sharing the stage with the likes of Primal Scream, Public Enemy and Run DMC.
For reviews of Public Enemy's gig at Trinity, or for features on Trinity's rich heritage of hosting alternative music, go to our Archive section or head to our Events page for details on how to buy tickets for what promises to be an unmissable gig.
]]>The hoop has come a long way since the 1950s, when it was predominantly marketed as a toy for children. Over the past few years, hooping has become a true art and dance form, sparking trends including fitness regimes, an International Holiday and even fire hooping!
SWhoop 2011 will see two weekends of workshop events, led by the best and most renowned hoopers and teachers from across the UK and the US. International teachers will be the same for both weekend and include Anah "Hoopalicious" Reichenbach, Malcolm Stuart, Emma Kerr and Loz Becausebut. We will also see sessions delivered by UK teachers including Satya Bella (11th-13th) and Angie Mack (18th-20th).
There will be additional optional dance and circus workshops from complimentary disciplines as well as ample social and playing time. Each weekend will feature a Saturday night showcase and LED Ball. This is truly a unique opportunity for those with a passion for hooping and one not to be missed.

The Maccabees announce low key dates at intimate venues to perform tracks from eagerly awaited third studio album.
‘The Maccabees are entering the prime of their musical lives’ - NME
The Maccabees have today announced a run of low key dates to perform tracks from their eagerly anticipated, as yet unnamed, third studio album.
The five-piece from London, Orlando Weeks, Hugo White, Felix White, Rupert Jarvis and Sam Doyle, are putting the finishing touches to the follow up to their critically acclaimed 2009 album Wall Of Arms at their Elephant and Castle studio space.
The bands decision to play smaller intimate shows to road test new tracks comes in the wake of electrifying performances at Portsmouth Wedgwood Rooms and the Phoenix in Exeter. As with both of these recent shows and the forthcoming dates the performances will also include songs from the bands much loved first two records.
The run of shows begin on 21st October in Gloucester, ending in Bristol on 2nd November and includes one off small, capacity London show at the Village Underground on November 1st.
Tickets will go on sale this Saturday 24th September. The band have decided to keep booking fees on tickets low by making them available through local records shops wherever possible.

100 Acres of Sycamore 2011: “Regan's guitar a moonlit stream weaving through a forest of glimmering piano and velvety strings. It's not just the music that reflects the natural world: Regan plucks elegant lyrical metaphors from it” The Guardian
Shadow of an Empire 2010: “As far as second albums go, it is a brilliantly bold, robust work, showcasing real development and the kind of graceful erudition that places Regan squarely ahead of the curve.” BBC 6 Music
End of History 2006: “One of the finest singer-songwriters to emerge in recent years, splicing dextrously plucked acoustic guitars with literary allusions to captivating ends. A frank, genuinely heart-warming listen ” BBC 6 Music
