About the event

THEY’RE BACK! St Albans very own Zipheads return for their NINTH (we think) annual hometown Xmas show on 23rd December!
Since 2015 the Zipheads have put on their annual hometown Xmas extravaganza (missing the years 2019-21) in the very venue they started out in, before taking their brand of punky-rock’n’roll on a 16+ year career that has taken them all over the UK, Europe and the U.S. 
Zmas #9 sees the band in fine form, wedged between their highly successful recent album anniversary show at the legendary 100 Club at the start of November, and their upcoming tour of Germany this January.
This year the Zipheads bring you an extra special Xmas present in the form of EFFLUX- local contemporaries from the early Zipheads days, this St Albans based psychedelic-acid jazz-fusion outfit will be performing for the very FIRST TIME IN 15 YEARS!Anyone who saw an Efflux set back in the day has surely never forgotten it and we are very pleased to be resurrecting this fine piece of St Albans musical history for you this December!
