BIKINI BODY

Bikini Body are your favourite DJ’s favourite punk band. They’ve released two records with Optimo Music, whose support helped shape their current trajectory and a sound that’s dancier than punk and punkier than dance.

Drawing on ESG, Liquid Liquid, Warmduscher and Squid, their sound pairs percussive grooves with a confrontational vocal style rooted in The Slits, Bush Tetras and X-Ray Spex.

Recent activity includes a 13-date UK co-headline tour with a sold-out London show, a packed-out headline set at The Windmill, Brixton, and festival appearances at Manchester Psych Fest, Hidden Door and Watching Trees. Airplay has followed across BBC Radio 6 Music, Radio 1, KEXP and NTS.

The band have just completed 10 new tracks at PRAH Studios in Margate. The new material leans even deeper into the sound they’ve been honing live; rhythmic, confrontational and built for both the dance floor and the DIY basement.

BEN KATZMAN

Ben Katzman is a solo artist blending metal, punk, rock and pop into hook-filled, high-energy songs packed with virtuosic guitar work. A fan-favourite finalist on Survivor, Katzman uses music as a vehicle for catharsis, empowerment and fearless self-expression, turning vulnerability into explosive live performances.

Alongside touring with artists including Guerilla Toss, Mannequin Pussy and Colleen Green, he runs the independent BUFU Records label, championing underground artists. Whether on stage or in the studio, Ben Katzman brings humour, heart and relentless shredding to everything he does.

SUNKEN SMILE

After years of touring the UK and Europe, releasing records and earning international acclaim, Spender returns with a distinctly different project, quieter, soulful and more intimate. Drawing from jazz and alternative rock, Sunken Smile make emotionally charged music with is tender and visceral.
