RPS Presents:ROCK PAPER SCISSORSRock Paper Scissors are a four-piece alternative rock band from Brighton. Formed in first year of sixth-form in April 2025, the group was united by a shared love of 90s post-punk, shoegaze and second wave emo, along with a shared sense of art pop-sensibility. Besides heavy gigging in venues such as Daltons, The Dome, The Brunswick and Lewes Depot, the band has had a radio set and interview on Slack City Radio promoting the release of their debut single “Kaleidoscope” which is out on Spotify and all streaming platforms. The Pepperheads are a rock band based in Brighton, East Sussex. Their members include Arthur on drums, Otto & Jude on guitar, Hunter on bass and Max on vocals. They have been playing together for 8 years now, having played in Germany, France, multiple UK cities and their hometown, Brighton. Fusing pop inflected melodies with shoegaze and post-punk, Portslade-based Table Football craft wonderfully ramshackle pop songs. Underneath layers of scratchy guitars, catchy melodies rear their heads, creating songs that echo with simplicity and immediacy. The five-piece have gigged prolifically in the last year, including two nights supporting The Blockheads. The band have also already been championed by BBC Introducing and other local radio stations. 18+
