Event information

The Fallen Leaves– with a heritage going back to the 1976 dawn of UK Punk Rock (the original Subway Sect, natch, who played the 1976 100 Club Punk Rock Festival alongside Sex Pistols, The Damned, Siouxsie, Buzzcocks etc) and a sincerity of sound dedicated to the essentials of punk, garage and freakbeat (Minimum RnB natch), it’s always a great treat to welcome this band to the stage. They really tore up the place last time around.

“This valve amp, treble-to-the-max rave-up would have had the mid-’60s Who or Pretty Things bricking it backstage at the
Embassy Club” Mark Paytress (Mojo)
“This sharp, angular, melodic garage-pop will doubtless appeal to
the same authenticity-starved youngsters who have made Billy Childish their king” Stewart Lee…

Neovenator- with a new E.P produced by JC Carroll of The Members, these chaps may not be quite so very ‘nouveau’ but they certainly know how to place a power chord and a raffish melodic hook or ten. Bits of The Who, The Stranglers, Pil, you know…groovy gear. Aforementioned EP features 'Launch Day', a song about Elon Musk and 'We've Got Killers' a corking number about...your caring sharing Saturday Night Dublin Castle DJs! See below...anyways... Back Room Bangin' DJs and billionaire rocketeers- all life is here.

Queenie and the Peanuts – old school ramalama punk rock fronted by the sassy titular Queenie and rendering echoes of Penetration, Helen Love and Honey Bane. Great effortless punkology from these seasoned Peanuts too.

DJs We Got Killers – punk rock, ska and soul, 6Ts 7Ts 8Ts, whatever Ts, rest assured an eclectic mix of dancefloor pimping goodness assured. til 2am.
