After On The Green Festival being cancelled, The Hoosiers 'thought it would be only right and a bit fun to do a pop-up gig at the nearest record shop for fans who were planning to come to our festival show. It'll be intimate and a squeeze, however, we are delighted to say that the amazing people at Rock-a-Buy Records will be hosting our free gig on Saturday 24th May.'
They will be performing at this FREE concert from 9pm with backing from a Vinyl DJ.
