The Everly Pregnant Brothers are a powerhouse of parody fuelled on best bitter, pork pies and raucous gigs. They regularly play to sell-out crowds in their native South Yorkshire and are rapidly growing a cult following far and wide.
They’re also playing the main stage at this year’s sold-out Tramlines Festival but will first perform at The New Adelphi Club on Friday 25 April.
Backed by drummer Nick Banks (of Pulp fame) and acclaimed illustrator Pete McKee (on ukulele) amongst others, you’d have to have a heart of stone not to enjoy their joyous pater and quirky take on a hoard of classics.
As partisan lyrics go, “they tried to make me go to Derby – I said, no, no, no!” is quite the match-winner. Lifted from their take on Amy Winehouse’s classic anti-therapy anthem Rehab, in which Barnsley, Rotherham, Donnie and Leeds are also given short shrift, the veteran Sheffield septet more than do it justice.

Bowie, The Cure, ABBA, Coldplay, Kings of Leon and Bob Marley are just a selection of the artists given mirthful re-workings, the pick of which – Chip Pan (refrain – “yeah, my chip pan’s on fire!”) – turns an already well-oiled crowd into a communal karaoke room.
While Stuck in the Lidl with You (Stealers Wheel re-imagined) is almost as enjoyable. By the time Coldplay’s Yellow is sent up with an ode to the Steel City’s precious Hendo’s Relish, hands are in the air and all cares of the world are slung to the wind.
What’s quite brilliant though, is how, because you are concentrating on taking in the new lyrics, you are also reminded of how brilliant the music is in the first place – clever that. By the time No Oven No Pie, to the tune of Jamaica’s unofficial national anthem, is aired, everyone on and off stage is having an absolute ball.
Supported by local poet, painter and pebbler, Dean Wilson, the night is set to be an unforgettable event.
Pulp, one of the most influential British bands of all time, played at The Adelphi many times between 1984 and 1993 on their rise to greatness, and the club is pleased to welcome back Pulp and Everley’s, Nick Banks.
“You can also meet Nick as he will be signing his new autobiography ‘So It Started There – From Punk to Pulp” during the evening, with a chance for fans to discover how he came to be in one of the UK’s most iconic and beloved bands.
