Dancey, dark, angry.’ https://floralis.bandcamp.com/ Strange New Places ‘Strange New Places are a Belfast-based band of right-on radicals with low self-esteem.

You can expect punchy basslines and journal-style lyrics that balance weighty melancholy with hopefulness.’ https://sunnysidedown.bandcamp… THWACK! ‘Formed in the ashes of late capitalist hell (London, 2022), orchestral punk band THWACK! Are a high-octane cocktail of camp with a political edge and an undeniable groove, bringing unabashed queer theatricality and raw grit to every performance’ https://thwackband.bandcamp.co… Tickets ONLY guarantee entry BEFORE 7pm.
