Martha
Cheekface
Saturday 12th July / 7pm - 10:30pm

Martha are a rock band from Pity Me, a village in County Durham in the North East of England. After singles on their own Discount Horse label and Odd Box Records, their debut album Courting Strong, was released on Fortuna Pop! and Salinas Records in 2014. As of 2025 they have released four full-length albums and 14 EPs/singles on cult UK and US based independent record labels.

The queer-anarchist group have developed a core following over the years and played 2 packed-out shows back in 2022 at The Exchange, and a sellout at Strange Brew in 2024.

Cheekface is an American indie rock band based in Los Angeles, California. Formed in 2017, the group consists of guitarist and lead vocalist Greg Katz, bassist and backup vocalist Amanda Tannen, and drummer Mark Edwards. Cheekface has released four studio albums, four EPs, and one live album, all on Katz's own label, New Professor Music. The group's songs, characterized by Katz's talk-singing, are typically short and lyrics-driven with a dry sense of humor and tend to share a thematic interest in anxiety and sociopolitical unease. Some of Cheekface's fans refer to themselves as Cheek Freaks. This will also be their second outing at brew after their set at Ritual Union in 2024, which by many people's reckoning was the best set of the festival...

Expecting a bumper one with both bands on the bill this time round!
