The line-up’s on More Canals Than Venice too, with links to each band’s MySpace profile. Tickets are available here.

But there’s more. As the ladies say:

Not only will we be hosting a series of live shows… we’re also producing an exhibition which delves deep into our archive. This will feature 10 years worth of flyers, photos and related ephemera

If you’ve got anything that can be added to that archive then get in touch with them at info@capsule.org.uk.

Finally, we’re lining up a joint Capsule/Created in Birmingham event for 17 December which will be an excuse to celebrate some of Birmingham’s rising independent talent. More details on this to come…
