Grey Muzzle is proud to welcome Jemma Freeman & The Cosmic Something back to Bristol!

JEMMA FREEMAN & THE COSMIC SOMETHING
Jemma Freeman &TCS bring their intense, expansive live sound on tour! Jemma is without doubt one of the UK's most dazzling guitarists, chopping speedy punk riffs, with perfect pop song melodies backed up by virtuoso musician Sam Nicholson on bass and Jason Ribero on drums... all topped off with Jemma's soaring vocal that has been likened to classic pop stars like Madonna and Cindy Lauper. The vibes transmitted live from The Cosmic Something are nothing short of a spiritual experience. Do not miss this band.

TV DEATH
Combining punk with psychedelic ideals, Newcastle's TV Death have emerged onto the UK scene, transmitting a potent brand of garage rock, with dark lyrics delivered with a distinctly sharp abrasiveness.

2021 proved to be an auspicious start for the group, as they played a host of dates across the UK, including gigs in London, Glasgow, Manchester and their native norh-east, where they promoted their EP Isolation with a sold-out debut.

Key single Crank Bugs was named one of Louder Than War’s top 100 tracks of the year, while the title track received airplay from BBC 6Music:

"Well, TV Death, you’ve got three new fans here… it’s brilliant!" - Craig Charles BBC 6 Music

OH, THE GUILT
Oh, The Guilt are family. Oh, The Guilt are siblings. Oh, The Guilt are learning and growing together. We are proudly trans, proudly queer and proud of what we’re building. We are Elijah, Jules and Kit.

We make music to dance to, music to cry to, to hold each other to. A soundtrack to living and loving authentically and fearlessly. We love haunting melodies, propulsive rhythms and our community.

DJ Heidi Heelz
Post punk, glam and much more. Bring your dancing shoes!
"The best DJ in the Multiverse" - Emily Breeze
