LLLAMA LLAMA – Two-piece Psycadelic-Dance-Punk, bringing an equal amount of sock-knockoff-able heavy riffs, and knee high dance beats, all under a generous sprinkling of the fantastical. Don the googly eyes and prepare the primal screams.
SLACKRR – SLACKRR are easily one of the most talked-about bands to have emerged from the UK underground scene in recent years. The pop punk trio are armed with huge sing-along choruses combined with big danceable riffs and heartfelt, relatable lyrics covering day-to-day life, mental health awareness whilst echoing their message of hope for the future and an energetic, chaotic and fun live show. High profile festival appearances such as Isle of Wight Festival, The Fest (USA) Rebellion Punk Festival, SBAM Fest and Punk Rock Holiday has lead to high praise from the likes of BBC Radio One, Kerrang! Rock Sound and a feature on Sony Playstation video game VR Skater. This is a party you don’t want to miss.
FFO: Neck Deep, Taking Back Sunday, The Story So Far.
