FOSSIL return to The Point Sunderland on Friday 18 September with a set built around the sort of classic rock that works best in a room where people know the choruses before the first verse is finished. The North East band lean on big guitar songs and close vocal harmonies, so this one should suit anyone who prefers a full-band sound over a background playlist.

The evening starts at 7pm, with Happy Hour running from 7pm to 8pm before FOSSIL go live at 8:45pm. Entry is free, which makes it an easy one to drop into if you are already heading into Sunderland city centre for the evening.
FOSSIL at The Point Sunderland
FOSSIL sit firmly in classic-rock territory, with guitar-led songs and harmony-heavy favourites at the heart of the set. That gives this date a clear identity: a proper Friday-night rock show rather than a mixed-format club event or tribute package. The timing helps too, because there is enough space between the event opening and stage time to get settled before the band starts.
The Live Lounge has a regular rhythm for these free shows, but the bands shape each night. In FOSSIL’s case, the pull is recognisable rock songs, weighty guitars and vocals that are meant to be heard together rather than buried under a backing track.
Friday night details
The Point is in Sunderland city centre, close to Sunderland Station and Park Lane, so public transport is straightforward. The event starts at 7pm, Happy Hour runs until 8pm and FOSSIL are on stage at 8:45pm. Entry is free.
