Line Up
Tom Rasmussen | Headline
Tom Rasmussen is a London-based artist and prominent figure in the LGBTQIA+ community. Known for their dark dance music that blends pop, queer club culture, and their experiences as a former drag performer, their debut album, Body Building (Globe Town Records 2023), received critical acclaim.
Maz and the Phatasms
Maz and the Phantasms are a high-energy psychedelic surf-punk band from Glasgow. Born out of dive bars, DIY tours and late-night jams, the band mixes beach-goth guitars, funky basslines, and spooky synths with a touch of spaghetti-western swagger. Equal parts punk and charity shop glam, their shows are chaotic, sweaty and full of drama, where rock’n’roll collides queer theatrics and the party always gets a little unhinged.
Sheila in the Poundshop
Sheila in the Poundshop are an all-gal post-punk band specialising in silly songs that tackles big issues – like the horrors of carpets in the bathroom and dodgy farmers! DIY, high-energy with an unhinged twist.
PONY/ PONIES/ PONY'S
The No. 2 wonky grungegayz band in the UK with light horse/ Pony theming. Featuring members of Petroleum Genderloss and Dear Srrrz.
