Blue Orbits play Sounds + Grounds in Cowes on Tuesday 13 October, a full evening set in an independent record and coffee shop. They used to be Triangulum, in case that’s the name you remember. Doors open at 6.30pm and the performance runs from 7pm to 9pm. Sounds + Grounds opened in 2022 and combines pre-loved vinyl, CDs and coffee in the same Birmingham Road room used for the gig.
Tickets are £16, booked through Sounds + Grounds. The ticket page publishes no genre or set list, so the draw is the band and the room, not a promised list of songs. With vinyl racks and a smaller space, you’ll be nearer the players than at a theatre show. It is the sort of venue where arriving before the music helps you get your bearings. Use the half-hour doors window rather than walking in on the first note.
The shop is at 12 Birmingham Road in Cowes. A 9pm finish suits a weeknight. Seating isn’t stated, so contact the venue before booking if you need a chair or a step-free route. Blue Orbits join the Island’s live music calendar for one date only, and with limited capacity, advance tickets are the sensible choice.
