The Effectives with support from Traitors, Moxie Dolls and Distress Call at The Croft

A gig held at The Croft on Wednesday 2nd September. The event starts at 19:30.


“Sideshow Bob, The Tasmanian Devil, The Thinker and Animal from The Muppets walk into a bar…”

We won’t finish that joke but seriously, The Effectives will knock your head off your shoulders and leave you feeling like your pay cheque came early. 

“Join the ride to experience the destination.”

Traitors are a duo blending Garage Rock, Blues and Psychedelia to create riff and rhythm driven sounds. Alex Stone and Gabe Davy, an explosive frontman and a powerhouse drummer can produce such a full sound that they are often mistaken for a larger group. Electric on stage performance that will make you thrust yourself in all directions.

Moxie Dolls are an all-girl, punk-rock band based in Bristol, UK - “if The Runaways and Hole had a baby!” Formed around the need to advocate for feminist change within the music industry, they’re confronting it head on and not afraid to take up space. Known for their heavy riffs, hook-driven songs and explosive live energy, they’re unapologetically loud and leave a lasting impression. The band are bold and direct, fusing their love for raw punk energy with cutting synth lines. For fans of HotWax, Amyl and the Sniffers, and Hole - they’re a rising force you won’t want to ignore!

Distress Call are the latest up-and-coming Midwest Grunge band from the south coast of the UK. Fusing inspiration from math rock, emocore, grunge, shoegaze, and prog metal, they create a sonic cocktail of doomy-and-gloom emboldened by waves of high intensity guitar riffs and haunting vocals. Taking their inspiration from music and cinema alike, Distress Call sounds like the music equivalent of a found footage horror film of the 90s, aiming to bring their sound barraging to the top of the scene with a nostalgic, unsettling intensity.
