Nightingale plays host to a celebration of underground tech house, the first event of its kind to be held in Birmingham’s gay quarter. Headlining is second city DJ, producer and Global Gathering resident Marc Spence, who released his ‘Nasty/Stop Interrupting’ single to acclaim last year. Inspired by an eclectic range of artists from DJ Shadow to the Beatles, Spence has been perfecting his craft in the studio for over eight years and has supported such high profile names as Annie Mac, Zinc and Duke Dumont. This Friday, Spence is joined by the Sherrington Brothers, Ana Cole, Wayne H and more for what promises to be a memorable night.

Fri 6 May, Nightingale Top Floor, 18 Kent Street, B5 6RD, 0121 622 1718, 10pm, From £5 OTD, www.facebook.com/Nightingale-TopFloor
