Republica

Republica is a British band that blends techno with alternative rock, performing in Birmingham at the Hare & Hounds. The concert falls in the pop, rock and indie strand of the programme.

Republica formed in Windsor in 1994 and combines the rhythms of techno with the guitar-led songwriting of alternative rock. Their first album, also titled Republica, was released in 1996 and contains "Ready to Go", the track most associated with the band. Their work sits where dance-driven electronic music meets the rock and indie tradition of the 1990s.

The Hare & Hounds is a Birmingham venue that hosts concerts and shows, so this date belongs to its regular live music calendar. The night suits listeners interested in the band's mix of electronic beats and guitar music, and anyone who followed British alternative rock and dance-leaning pop in the late 1990s.
