These boys have been gigging constantly in various bands since it all began for them back back in the mid 1990’s.
The live show is a homage to the greatest of the great Indie, Britpop and dance hits of that era and has been honed with spot on attention to detail with songs that are performed with energy and professionalism.
As part of our 15th birthday celebrations over the next few months, we are honoured to have some very special guests joining us:
Bradford’s dub defenders INSPIRATIONAL SOUND; also celebrating an amazing 25 years in the scene will be bringing the crew, including singers and MC’s: Richie Ranks, Dan Man and D.Bo General – responsible for the vocals on one of the biggest jungle tunes ever released: Some Justice ’95 aka ‘The Arsonist’.
Support from the Irie Vibes DJs and MCs, playing all manner of roots, reggae and dub; with jungle to finish!
Dynamic synth and drum duo bring an energetic live-looping post-punk-disco show to The Crescent.
Although incredible purveyor of Afrofuturism, Kweku aka K.O.G , has been to the Crescent as part of other projects like KOG & The Zongo Brigade and Onipa, this will be his first time alongside his own extended band. Support from Afrodesia, who played alongside Alogte Oho earlier in the year as well as at the Bishy Road Street Party. Expect fierce raps with political messages alongside Afrobeat, Hi Life and jazzy licks.
Amy is a multi award-winning comedian, actor and writer, and is the only act ever to be nominated for the prestigious Edinburgh Comedy Award twice in the same year. Following her hugely successful debut show, The Girl Before The Girl You Marry, Amy Gledhill returns with another stand-up offering.
If you’re going to pay tribute to The Thin White Duke, you may as well get the best one around. ABSOLUTE BOWIE have been touring the UK & Europe for years, consistently selling out venues and we don’t expect this show to be any different.
Formed through a mutual love of 80’s goth and alternative rock music. Sanctum Santorium are a live 6-piece band that faithfully recreate classic hits by artists such as The Cult, Killing Joke, Sisters of Mercy, Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Cure, Bauhaus and more. Smoke machines at the ready with the clothes and the attitude.
A small fair with a great selection of vinyl records of many genres. 8 stallholders with lots of collectable and rare LPs and 45s and loads of bargains. Free admission. Bar open for refreshments.
Having toured with the likes of Richard Thompson, and with a supporting slot for Dinosaur Jr. forthcoming—as well as a tremendous Bert Jansch tribute show behind him, wherein his hero Anne Briggs called him the ‘c word’—Walker has rubbed shoulders with the very best.
After a hugely successful first leg, British Comedian of the Year Winner and social media sensation Jeff Innocent is back for the second half of his debut nationwide tour, Smart Casual.
