Sell out warning! Darlings of chaos boogie Getdown Services are back on home soil for their first full band show on the road to almost certain infamy. If you know them, they need no introduction. If you don’t: picture two drunk dads spitting razor-sharp semi-nude social commentary to a screaming crowd.

Sell out warning! Raw emotion made manifest by any means necessary. Histrionic synth-pop, searing folk noise, soaring baroque soundscapes - alienation’s never had sonic champions like Angela & Jamie.

Sell out warning! Two of planet Earth’s heaviest in an unholy alliance of Schwet wet dreams: the occult bass / evil rave renegades Demdike meets Dame Area’s incendiary tribal punkwave body music. Leave your best band tee at home, this will be feral.
