COVID 19 UPDATE: We will be opening as a cafe bar on Friday 10/07/20. Unfortunately we can not operate as a music venue for the time being. Check out our socials for regular updates.
Paradiddles is focused on inclusion, sharing music and contributing to Worcester’s ever growing creative community. We love music and we want to celebrate it. Nothing sounds better to us than getting some coffee and cake in the day with our favourite tunes in the background or sharing pizza and beer in the evening with a live band.
We have a fully soundproofed rehearsal room on site which can be booked out for solo artists, bands or lessons. Users will have a 10% discount to use in the café. Check out our rehearsal room section for more information. Paradiddles also has a stage in the café bar for performances…. a nice easy step up from the rehearsal room.

Three Words: Three words consists of a local musician known as “Alex” merging live instrumentation with new backing elements. The creations are not just interesting and unique but they are gritty and dark with upbeat tones. Three words reminds me of NIN’s ‘Pretty Hate Machine” with the raw broken drum elements but this time mixed with some really crazily good vocal and guitar takes.

Info: | Echo Gecco: They have created a sound all of their very own that has the ability to mix and blend different genres that normally should not mix. Heavy riffs in a smooth Jazz song? Who knew that would work?! The band believes that this type of versatility will make sure that any and every person that listens or watches Echo Gecco will find something they will enjoy. The band believe that their sound was made for a festival setting and the energy involved in each and every show will leave the crowds wanting more!- Hotvox
Day Job: Swaggering, attitude-filled rock, littered with meaty riffs, fuzzed up force, big hooks, all locked inside a danceable groove. Eva and the Blue Dive: This project, led by singer/songwriter Eva Trim takes acoustic indie folk and blends multiple genres together to create an evocative mix with originality and quality song-writing at it’s heart. They draw comparisons from Jeff Buckley, Lucy Rose and Marika Hackman but BBC Introducing described them as psychedelic folk, likening Trim’s vocals to Nico and Bjork.- Artist Facebook Page |

Solo gigs mix fast-paced, wordy acoustic folk with acerbic poems and endearingly irreverent chat.
Full band shows are an exhilarating blend of indie clatter, Oxfam mod and joyful, sardonic cheer.- Band Website

Info: | Paradiddles is very excited to annouce a very special iapperance from Gypsy Pistoleros.
Heading out on tour the day after this gig, catch them here first for an intimate warm up show! with suport from Everyone lies and Shotgun Marmalade. Tickets will dissapear very quickly so grab them whilst you can! Band bios below: GYPSY PISTOLEROS: “The World’s Greatest Flamenco Sleaze Glam Rock ‘N’ Roll band Ever!” ! Combining their truly unique mix of flamenco rumba which gleefully collides with old school punk and rock ‘n’ roll riffs!! A sound and style that mixed sleazy glam rock with flamenco influences and a shout out to Mexican folklore and Spanish tendencies. This mongrel offspring of fiery flamenco passion and gritty gutter glam, the Gypsy Pistoleros’ were born roamin’ somewhere between Barcelona and Birmingham, brought into the world to a soundtrack stack-heeled anthems of sleazy ‘70s America. Standing alone in musical ancestry and sum sound, they were one one of those most rare acts who can honestly claim the tag ‘unique’. The insane inspiration came from frontman and songwriter Gypsy Lee Pistolero who began wielding this unique sound whilst living in Zaragoza (Spain) whilst supporting The Ramones in 1993. The Gypsy Pistoleros have always had a reputation for danger and played five Rocklahoma festivals 2007-11, in Oklahoma, USA , where they appeared alongside Motley Crue, Guns n Roses, Poison, ZZ top, Twisted sister, Faster Pussycat, Vain, Papa Roach, Whitesnake, Skid Row, Black Label Society. Normally closing each night! They have toured extensively, playing with the likes of L.A. Guns, Faster Pussycat, Adler’s Appetite, UFO, Motorhead, Ratt, Dogs D’amour, Dirty Penny, Bang tango, Wrathchild, Vains Of Jenna, Twisted Sister, Poison, Vince Neil, Bang Tango, Skid Row, Slaughter, Faster Pussycat, Dokken and ZZ Top.
