About Me

BUMPER is Liverpool's coolest FREE CLUB, offering LIVE MUSIC & DJ'S every night. Its a VENUE, CLUB & BAR in one, located within the heart of Liverpool's Student quarter.
BUMPER is also a popular hangout for the thriving Liverpool Music Scene every night.
The music is exciting, cutting edge ranging from fresh local bands about to get signed with A&R sniffing round the place, to well known anthems like "standing in the way of control" Mainly BUMPER prides itself on being a platform to champion EXCITING, NEW, CUTTING EDGE, UNDERGROUND music.
The decor is that of a chic 70's drinks party. Authentic leather furniture to lounge on below a gallery of the coolest art from the last 40 years. The back room is perfect for rocking the night away to some top bands or getting down on it till the early hours.
The bar is stocked with premium spirits, Havanah Club Rums and a plethora of Vodkas. In the fridges we have speciality beers such as Bellevue Cherry and Raspberry flavours and Dos Equis, a fine, smooth beer from Mexico for those hot Summer months.
All in all, BUMPER has something for everyone, all night, every night.

Band Members: BUMPER attracts a mixed clientele and being in the heart of Liverpool's heaving student quarter an abundance of them are usually to be found lounging around on the comfy sofas, or tearing up the dancefloor! Meanwhile Liverpool's 'nocturnal' community known as 'the workers', -(from other venues and bars in the area) often clock off and head straight to BUMPER for a well earned pint. The community vibe also attracts 'the performers' -the DJ's, artists and gigging musicians from the Liverpool scene. BUMPER has a cool, underground crowd with a common belief that 'its all about the music'.

Mixed in with the regular weekly nights are some very special events. the LAKE OF STARS nights are legendary, the BUMPER BATTLE OF THE BANDS, held every year, is known as the best in Liverpool and many touring bands from around the country choose BUMPER to show off their talents to the Northwest.
Influences: ITS ALL ABOUT THE NEW UNDERGROUND MUSIC THAT KEEPS BURSTING INTO OUR EARS, RANGING FROM ELECTRO/POST PUNK-ERA TO JUST GOOD OLD VANILLA INDIE. WHATEVER IT IS, YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH COUNT THE FACT THAT YOU WILL HAVE HEARD IT IN BUMPER FIRST...!
