Brudenell Social Club is sold out. It’s the turn of Birmingham indie up-and-comers overpass to headline the iconic venue, and there’s a lot of excitement down at the front.  I first saw overpass 12 months ago, as they played to a packed out room at Oporto during Independent Venue Week2, supporting Tom A Smith.
