It's time to get on down with Wakey Wakey Rise & Shine and celebrate the release of their Sophomore E.P 'Rear Meat' with Velvet Echoes. The mundane getting you down...? Then look no further for a New-wave battering ram that will make your friday night that little bit better, if not, go to prysm or something i guess.
Joined by MLY and Barbican this celebration of national vitamin C day, will be a day dedicated to our favourite vitamin you won't forget
Wakey Wakey Rise & Shine
Influenced by the likes of Snapped Ankles, DEVO and B-52s, Wakey Wakey Rise & Shine came to define their Post-Dance-Punk sound; frilly melodies fused with the fuzzed-up fury of high-octane rhythm. Powered by an embrace of all things silly and irreverent, the band have been generating new fans through their unpredictable live shows
MLY
Hey! Here's my bio:
Bristol-based artist MLY blends indie-pop and folk to create ‘sad-gal-campfire-bangers’. Her self-produced sound merges live instrumentation with airy synths and intricate samples, creating a distinctive blend that’s both introspective and expansive. Her latest single, "Madonna," captures this evolution, showcasing her growth in production and lyricism since her debut single “Lovers”. Her releases have seen support from BBC Bristol, BBC Introducing, Ujima Radio, Bristol 247, and Clunk Magazine. Recent performances include iconic Bristol venues Rough Trade, Thekla, and Crofters Rights, intimate sets for Sofar Sounds, as well as festivals including Dot to Dot and Harbourfest.
Barbican
Barbican, a Bristol based post-punk quintet, channels the influence of CAN, Leonard Cohen and The Fall into a powerful sonic experience characterised by hypnotic riffs and Motorik drumbeats. Their angry, poetic vocals and dynamic soundscapes create a transportive and theatrical live show, often compared to the high energy performances of Fugazi and Rage
Against the Machine. With a compelling mix of audio spectacle and social commentary, Barbican delivers memorable hooks and an unforgettable presence that captivates and engages audiences.
