Oxford band who played radio 1 sound city in 1997 and put out singles on shifty disco and fierce panda before splitting in 1999. The surviving members regrouped after the death of their original bassist in 2023, and in 2026 released '50 men', their first new single in 27 years. Melodic, noisy guitar songs with something to say.

Oxford-based indie goth rock band whose sound weaves wistful dream pop melodies into anthemic, stomping alternative rock. Their 2026 album 'everything' was picked as bandcamp new & notable and earned them a full feature and interview in nightshift magazine's february 2026 issue. Latest single 'gasoline' dropped in may 2026.
“this is music that looks inward but often billows outward, its delicate moving parts making for something wonderfully expansive.”
“a powerful and cohesive album.”
“what sets these recordings apart is the sheer attention to musical detail; carefully considered instrumental parts find their place within finely woven and wholly naturalistic arrangements.”

Oxford alt-rock duo channelling heavy riffs, stoner blues, and raw grunge energy into punchy, hook-driven songs. Their 2025 release 'superstition abolition' follows their second album 'azimuth' (2024) and debut 'dirty hymns and antonyms' (2023). bbc 6 music's tom robinson and nightshift magazine are among those who've championed them.
“powerful playing and proper songwriting.”
“fans of guitars dripping with scuzz can simply not ignore oxford's barrelhaus”
“every song here is great.”
“hard-rock carnage.”
“so rockin'!”

An oxford punk collective of women all aged 50-plus, formed in 2023 with zero prior performing experience between them, embracing punk's diy ethos to make noise, have fun, and be seen. Their raw, energetic sound draws on classic punk and riot grrrl, and they've already earned a bbc news oxfordshire feature and played a sold-out charity show raising funds for a young women's music project. They're on a mission to prove it's never too late to pick up an instrument and get on stage.
“older women tend to be unseen, unheard, a bit invisible — but ignore that, get on, enjoy yourselves, make music, and dance.”

An oxford duo making electronic music where acid house, post-punk and techno meet, with video as part of the act. Their 2025 album joy came out of a year spent listening to noise rock and acid house, and is split into a weird side and a side you might be able to dance to. A set of remixes of it followed in 2026.

Oxford-based alternative art rock project built around self-producing multi-instrumentalist aris sabetai, whose songs layer overdriven guitars and shoegaze textures into a cinematic, large-scale indie rock sound rooted in themes of nostalgia, faith, and identity. Featured by nightshift in their december 2025 issue, the band released their debut ep 'the stillness, the dancing' in june 2026, the culmination of a run of singles that drew coverage from international music press. Unsigned and self-managed, they bring a full live band and an ambitious, carefully orchestrated show to oxford's grassroots stages.

Semi-finalists in the 2025 musical comedy awards, no worries if not are an oxford electronica duo built to make people dance: sleek, wry, deadpan technopop with tongue-in-cheek lyrics, choreography and prop baguettes. Debut single 'big baguette' came out in august 2025 and their live set was reviewed in nightshift. Regulars on the oxford circuit, with recent shows at the jericho tavern, the bullingdon and the o2 academy.
“pitched somewhere between confidence man and the footlights revue, no worries if not will make you dance”
“electronic dance music duo with undeniably catchy tongue-in-cheek lyrics”

Gappy Tooth Industries is an Oxford promoter that has been putting on deliberately genre-mixed bills since May 2002. A typical night is three acts, usually two from Oxfordshire plus one visiting from further afield, and they try never to book the same act twice at a regular monthly show. It runs monthly, usually on the last Friday, and it moves around small Oxford rooms rather than sitting at one venue: the Wheatsheaf, Common Ground and the Jericho Tavern have all hosted it. The gigs are run non-profit, with the takings split between the performers once costs are covered, which is how the tickets stay cheap.
