About Me

TO ALL BANDS WISHING TO PLAY ESQUIRES: IF YOU MESSAGE THIS ACCOUNT YOU WILL BE IGNORED. For gig enquiries, please email us . We cannot forward your messages from MySpace onto the relevant promoters.
Welcome to the BedfordEsquires MySpace page. Since Esquires opened it's doors over a decade ago, the dressing rooms have been graced by the likes of Coldplay (twice!), Muse, Franz Ferdinand, The Libertines, Lost Prophets, Travis, Supergrass, The Beautiful South, Graham Coxon, Elbow, Super Furry Animals, Bloc Party, Editors and many more. In recent months Esquires has hosted gigs by many of the hottest new bands, such as The Automatic, The View, Klaxons, Art Brut, The Feeling, Enter Shikari and The Rakes.
Esquires is also host to regular club nights. On a Friday you can dance the night away at the Fuzzbox, playing the 'greatest hits of Esquires', and on a Saturday the place to be seen is the Kaleidoscope, playing all the latest alternative tunes from the hit parade. If that isn't enough for you, there are regular 'impromptu' nights catering to all tastes, metal, brit pop, motown & northern soul nights regularly featuring in the listings.
By signing up as one of our mates, we'll endeavour to keep you up to date with everything going on at the club, as well as giving you the opportunity to listen to some tracks by forthcoming artists.
Don't forget to check BedfordEsquires.co.uk for news and reviews from Bedford's Premier Live Music Venue.
