Blowout Presents
- SLEEMO -
Norwich power trio Sleemo made their debut in mid-2019, they quickly gained a large fanbase for their sonically loud live shows, heavy-set riffs, ripping leads and left-field songwriting, going from strength to strength starting in small grassroots venues to touring larger venues nationally with upcoming heavy hitters Enola Gay, Torus and Perfactparachutepicture in a short space of time, going as far as to even support one of their musical idols, Jamie Lenman of Reuben fame.
So far 2022 has seen the band win "Best Alternative Act" at the New Music Generator Awards, sign with Beth Shalom Records and rapidly garner a fierce reputation as one of the UK's most relentless, raucous and upcoming live acts that you do not want to miss.
"The band have easily cut across heavy-set riffs, warped, tearing, ripping leads and spasmodic time changes...Sleemo are not a three-piece to sleep on" - Ear Nutrition
"If you've not seen or heard Sleemo then you're missing out, because they're bloody good" - Outline Magazine
