Why: Driven by 80’s synth, the band has seen themselves headline shows in their hometown and across the UK and support the likes of Drenge and Hinds. They have taken a niche era of music as inspiration and twisted it into something fresh and exciting.
FUN FACT: “At a gig in Liverpool, Ciara’s drum stick broke and she couldn’t reach for another in time so hit the snare with her fist.”
