Summer Sessions with Tina Edwards, Bigger Boat, Jake Worm

We’ve teamed up with Bristol legends Worm Disco Club to bring you Summer Sessions—a three-month run of free Friday parties in our sunny Old Market beer garden, powered by the Minirig Doppler Soundsystem.

- Tina Edwards -

Tina Edwards wants you to forget she’s there. Known for encouraging dancers to ignore the booth and lose themselves in the music, Tina’s sets are a masterclass in "unpredictable arc" storytelling. Armed with her signature red box of 45s, her sound is grounded in the language of jazz but spans a global spectrum—from Latin jazz and cumbia to off-beat disco and Afro-diasporic grooves. Fresh from headline sets at the 2026 BAFTAs and her own internationally-revered Love Is Everywhere nights, Tina brings an intoxicating, vinyl-led energy that prioritizes the dancers over the DJ.

- Bigger Boat -

With years of DJ'ing experience between them, in and around Bristol's venues and airwaves, Noods residents Tim and Olly set out to change and blend the music they love and share on the dance floor - not sticking to tried and tested old sources, formulas and methods but re-shaping the mix to serve up some love and fight against the tide of singularity.

- Jake Worm -

One third of the brains behind Worm Disco Club, Jackson Worm's extensive record collection spans countless genres, continents and decades. Expect high-energy grooves as he digs deep into his eclectic mix of records.
