Hailing from Colchester, the trailblazing six-piece behind ‘Borstal’, ‘Deck Of Cards’ & ‘26 Ghosts’ have spent the last decade defying genres with their distinctive blend of rap, grime, punk, indie, psychedelic rock and more.
After touring with award - winning star Professor Green in 2023, the group are back in Bristol for their very own headline show.

ThisisDA is a Bristol based experimental rapper and record producer, recognised for his stylistic and prolific output. His extensive catalogue includes multiple releases (Before God, The Threat of Everything) and even boasts a number of collaborations with the viral lo-fi sensation that is Eyedress.
In the flesh, the self-proclaimed punk rapper is a seasoned and charismatic performer who has opened for the likes of Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth, Grandmaster Flash, Wiki, and Kojey Radical.
