Sweet Return (with special guest Drew from
) / The Franks / Slab Daze

are a London based alternative rock band formed in 2024. Blending Jeff Buckley’s ache with the Smashing Pumpkins’ bite; melancholic and raw. Fronted by Jack Reynolds with Ben Cheetham, Nicko M, Angus Robertson, and Oscar Williams, they’ve built up a big live repertoire playing venues across London and festivals like Westival. After supporting The Hunger at the Sebright Arms, they’re set to open for Babyshambles on December 8th at Rock City, Nottingham.

are performing as a four-piece—guitar, drums, bass—and will take you on a journey through psych, folk-punk, indie, country, rock

: Unsettling and life affirming in equal measure, something indefinable thrums at the heart of Slab Daze, a new four-piece from London. Post p***y, grungey, dreamy, uplifting but a bit off kilter, Slab Daze deliver a wave of sensations that you won’t want to miss.

present: Sister Ghost / Dogviolet / Harry's Daughter

is the haunting, self-made world of Irish musician Shannon Delores O’Neill—a rare artist redefining what DIY means in rock today.O’Neill launched Sister Ghost, writing and recording everything herself on an old 8-track recorder. The result: a spectral fusion of art-rock and dark power-pop. Does this sound good

channel Mother Nature to tell stories spanning social injustice, familial challenges, sapphic desire and the power of community. Blending grunge, goth and 90s rock sounds, Dogviolet deliver chorus-drenched dissonant guitars and weaving rhythms offset by strong resonant vocals, delicate harmonies and sharp spoken word.

presents:

started with raucous speed garage and quickly made a name for themselves with feral crowds and wild minimal earworms, captured in their 2020 self-titled 10”. Now, with line-up changes and a new direction, they explore minimalism and atonality, embracing darker, weirder, and heavier sounds. Fans of Shellac, Osees, and The Jesus Lizard won’t want to miss this.

delivers a relentless mix of post-spunk and sh*t-rock, packed with tech metal riffs and high-pitched screams. They’re loud, intense, and you definitely won’t want to hear them coming — but you won’t be able to look away.

keeps it short and sweet with lean, mean songs. Their sound is punchy and direct — the answer is in the cookie.
