**Tickets** 👉👉👉 https://dice.fm/event/537r5d-closeup-festival-2026-w-home-counties-22nd-may-colours-hoxton-london-tickets **The Lineup** The opening party of CloseUp Festival 2026 is headlined by the brilliant indie-dance-punk sextet **Home Counties**. Having recently collaborated with Al Doyle (LCD Soundsystem, Hot Chip) on their acclaimed second album, *Humdrum*, the band is renowned for trading traditional guitars for restless synth-pop grooves and sardonic, hook-laden social commentary. Their electrifying live sets combine post-punk energy with an irresistible, synth-driven bounce that feels reminiscent of CHVRCHES with a splash of art rock and danceable electronics! The night also features incredible support from rising alt-pop band **Girl Group** and the infectious, club-soaked energy of **This Is A Fever**. **Why You Should Go** This is your chance to catch the opening night of the 11th edition of the beloved, independent CloseUp Festival in an intimate setting before these bands blow up on the main stage. With its highly danceable, electroclash-meets-pop sound, this lineup guarantees an electric atmosphere from the very first track. **Watch & Listen** * **Home Counties** – YouTube: [Watch "New Best Thing" on YouTube](https://www.google.com/search?q=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DF3z3z8WwZ4w) \| Instagram: [@homecountiesband](https://www.instagram.com/homecountiesband/) * **Girl Group** – YouTube: [Watch "She Goes (Live)" on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Wh99dV90b0) \| Instagram: [@girlgroupband](https://www.google.com/search?q=https://www.instagram.com/girlgroupband/) * **This Is A Fever** – Instagram: [@thisisafever](https://www.instagram.com/thisisafever/) **Tickets** 👉👉👉 https://dice.fm/event/537r5d-closeup-festival-2026-w-home-counties-22nd-may-colours-hoxton-london-tickets

London collective Y bring their chaotic, genre-blending sound to The Lexington, mixing post-punk, new wave, alt-rock, electronica and a healthy dose of sax for good measure. "One of the strongest bands to come out of the Windmill scene in recent memory. " Still Listening They delivered a lively set at the 100 Club last December supporting Warmduscher, and their new single *May* has recently been getting some airtime on 6 Music.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8! Ranked the #1 Ice Cream Shop in Columbus in 2024, this is the perfect place to kick off our Summer of Ice Cream and grab a sweet treat after the show! Their menu features an array of traditional, specialty and vegan shakes, hot cocoa, and more! You can check out their full menu here: [https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php](https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php) PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 20 minutes before the show. Once showtime is announced, advance ticket purchase is advised! Once you have yours, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event. We'll head to nearby Shake No. 8 immediately following the show! Should be a fun one, Dan

On a list of "My Favorite Things", few people would put a "break up" in their top ten. More often, these words evoke feelings of shame, embarrassment, poor choices, and bad or sad endings. Before the new and beautiful can be built, the old, broken, and unnecessary must be cleared away. This process can be painful, but it is good, needful, and can produce wonderful results when done wisely and well. How does one break free from anxiety, comparison, or shame? Christian Bevere points people to the freedom God desires for His children, as well as giving practical ideas on how to shed both unhealthy baggage and the lies that seek to leave us anchored to past failure. Drawing from the Bible, ***Break Up With What Broke You*** clearly shows that what Satan would seek to use for evil, God uses for good and to accomplish His purposes. Join us **Tuesday, June 2, 2026, at 6:30 pm**, when we gather at **True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center, Columbus**. We'd love to see you there!
