Painless Parties

Painless Parties Painless Parties was founded in 2002 by Nick Painless to host and participate in events throughout the UK and beyond

Painless Parties was founded in 2002 by Nick Painless to host events in England, Scotland, Wales and the rest of the known universe

These events come in two main forms, the first of which is the Boiler Room which consist of live bands with a heavy metal soundtrack played by Nick himself. The second is The Black Cat and Top Hat which are burlesque and cabaret shows which have a dark twist to thei

r nature

Over the years Painless Parties has had great levels of success from playing DJ slots at various venues such as The Purple Turtle and Club Anti-Christ both in London, Whitby Gothic Festival and the now sadly departed TJ’s which was in Newport, Wales

DJ work isn’t the only thing that Painless Parties has tapped into over the years as Nick has appeared on BBC 3’s Snog, Marry, Avoid where he taught P.O.D a lesson or two. He was also requested to appear on ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent where he performed several demonstrations from his circus side show Organ Grinder

If you are feeling brave enough you can even hire Painless Parties to perform at your wedding, funeral or other private function of your choosing
