About this event

The Widows is on Friday 13 November 2026 at The Fiddlers Elbow, London, with doors at 19:30. Tickets start at £11, including the booking fee.

The Widows - with a brand new album just about to appear it's an exciting time for prospective suiters everywhere...these Widows are hot! With ramalama and gnarly blues tinged post punk on show, this is some fiery and ferocious music that has a foot in Dead Kennedys like pure punk and two or possible three (?) feet in a kind of Fall/Cramps/Gun club garage-abilly tradition. Great musicians and a fantastic frontman in Mr Kim Le Tan. Superb. Colour Me Blood Red - not to be confused with the Gordon Herschell Lewis splatter core movie- but then again why not? Confuse them, conflate them, and enjoy the interface! This razor shop surf noir would be a fab accompaniment to any decent horror flick. Putting the Mental into Instrumental with gothic and post punk tropes that hint at the Banshees, Killing Joke, Joy Division et al- an enigmatic, wordless spaghetti cold wave triumph...stunning stuff. Escapist - post punk psychedelic duo sounding very groovy indeed atop their drum machine. With enigmatic covers and interesting original this is an escape route you should really get on.

Osibisa

Boisdale of Canary Wharf · London

Table reservations from 6 pm | Live Music: 9 pm “Jimi Hendrix watched them rehearse, Stevie Wonder joined them on drums, and Fela Kuti partied with them in Lagos…” The Guardian Formed in London in 1969 by four African and three Caribbean musicians, Osibisa stand as the founding architects of Afro-rock. They were the first Black band to break The Marquee Club in 1971, earned two UK chart hits in 1976, and became one of the most influential African-heritage groups to emerge from Britain’s music scene. Their fusion of African rhythms, Caribbean grooves, funk, jazz, rock, Latin and highlife shaped the early language of what later became known as world music. Their catalogue continues to resonate across generations, with Sunshine Day, Welcome Home and Music for Gong Gong remaining staples on global stages. Osibisa’s legacy runs deep, cited by artists from Santana and Stevie Wonder to Al Green, Johnny Nash and Bob Marley. At Boisdale of Canary Wharf, the band bring their signature blend of driving percussion, soaring horns and richly textured arrangements - the sound that made them internationally recognised as the godfathers of Afro-rock.
