LIVE BANDS:

CROSS WIRES
Four boys from East London who certainly make a decent racket. Both songs on their latest double A side single 'I Want Radio' / 'Pink Dogs' produced by Rory Atwell (Vaccines / Bulletproof Bomb / Sisteray) are belters and already winning them friends left right and centre including, Gary Crowley on BBC Introducing, Art Rocker Radio, Virgin Music Discovery (Georgie Rogers), on Spotify and across the blogosphere. They are currently in the studio laying down tracks for their debut album.

"Music made for historic public houses and sweaty backroom bars, London based ‘Cross Wires’ balance a volatile brand of anarchic New Wave with trashy Indie-Punk and reverential arrogance" - Mojophenia

SKY VALLEY MISTRESS are a female fronted four piece from the North West who play with fuzz, feedback and rock and fucking roll. And they play hard - we know because we caught their storming performance as part of Camden Rocks this year @ The Hawley Arms.
With 2 fingers in the air and nothing to lose, the fearless gang of four are led by front woman Kayley 'Hell Kitten' Davies (vocals), with the six string sinner Squire 'The Duke' Williams (guitar), young blood Russell 'Russell' Russell (bass) and Maxwell Harvey William Newsome III (drums).
2016 is becoming a big year in their short career as the powerhouse prepare for their debut album to be recorded in Joshua Tree, LA later this year. Having been invited by Dave Catching from the Eagles Of Death Metal.

Filtered Magazine - "They show their generation the way that rock and roll should be done."

IDESTROY
Bec, Becky and Jenn, the three feisty girls from Bristol are Idestroy are quickly gaining a reputation for their energetic, sweaty, rock and roll shows. Since forming in 2015, the youthful trio are buildiing up a loyal live following across the UK. They have also already been invited to perform at European festivals such as Anfi Rock Sound in Spain performing on the main stage.

"If you like your rock'n'roll short, sharp and spiky, then Bristol grrrl rockers IDestroy might just be your favourite new band. They snap, they crackle, they pop, and they wear studded leather jackets with a feisty punk sneer." (Classic Rock Magazine)

“IDestroy produce raw, upbeat punk songs, reminiscent of ‘girl bands’ of the 70s, such as The Runaways, though they seem to do it with more zest and attitude.” (subba-cultcha)
