About the event
Headlining tonight’s Kongo are Palooka 5 who play 60s surf/garage on vintage equipments.
Their brand of ‘Sci Fi Surf’ on the SPINOUT NUGGETS record label has had regular spins on BBC 6 Music’s Gideon Coe & Tom Robinson, plus SIRUS XM in USA on Drew Carey and Little Steven’s (yes im’ from The Sopranos) Underground Garage. Add in a Four Star review of their last LP in Shindig Magazine makes their ‘bad vibrations’ stage show unmissable !
Second of two supports tonight comes The Sleazoids – blistering garage punk 3-piece from Sheffield. A whole heap terror-ific rockin’ sound…provocatively cool…and a wicked sense of fun.
For first support we welcome back The SinicTones! Bristol-based power trio with fuzz-riffed guitars, driving ear-candy bass lines, catchy choruses and a seductive live performance. Combining frantic surf drums with classic spy beat guitar riffs and Film Noir, B-Movie, Femme Fatale and Kink vocal themes.
Back by popular demand are 1960s go go dancers, the fabulous ‘Go Gets’! . Expect finger poppin, jaw droppin moves from one of the countries top go go dance troupes.
Double barrelled top quality 45 rpm vinyl all night with DJ Stan from Brighton legendary ‘Hoedown from the Crypt’ plus DJ Birdman – south London’s top dog of ska, beat, soul and surf.
