JESS SILK
https://jesssilk.co.uk/home
Jess Silk is a guitarist, singer and songwriter from the Black Country. Her shouty but melodic brand of folk/punk music often has her being likened to a female Frank Turner or Billy Bragg, and it gets people sitting up and listening. Armed only with an increasingly sticker-covered acoustic guitar and a distinctive, gravelly voice that many don’t expect, Jess plays to audiences up and down the UK and has shared stages with many well known names among the folk/punk scene.
MATT JOHNSON
https://mattjohnsonmusic.co.uk/
Matt Johnson is a Midlands based Singer / songwriter who really wears his heart on his sleeve at the same times as completely captivating his audience. His subjects range from his family and the love of his life through to his view of the world now and his opinion on the plight of the oceans and our wildlife. He has a fantastic ear for melody and bulids a hook into every song that has his audience singing back at him by the second chorus. Equally at home alone on stage with his acoustic guitar and trusty onion or supported by his super tight band, The Reprobates.
Matt's debut album 'Life Won't Wait' will be released on Saturday 2nd November 2024.
FMI CLATTERS
https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61550830724120
FMI Clatters is a singer/songwriter based in Plymouth. Covering subjects from lost love to the best type of pasty, he writes songs from the heartfelt to the comedic, and generally with a big smile on his face. Clatters has appeared on many a festival lineup and you can often find him wandering around the festival field with tankard in one hand and standard lamp in the other.
SHOTGUN MARMALADE
https://shotgunmarmalade.com
SHOTGUN MARMALADE are a hi-energy, original pop-punk-ska live band playing music in a style reminiscent of late 70' early 80's guitar bands such as The Clash, The Members and the Buzzcocks, and including more contemporary elements akin to Rancid, Reel Big Fish, Operation Ivy and The Rumjacks. They are a power trio (Sid - guitar/vocal, Ryan - Bass/Howling, Rob - Drum/vocals) who guarantee to skank, pogo and sweat blood in each and every performance. Shotgun Marmalade can also sometimes be just Sid solo on Acoustic, adding the occasional mandolin pluck for good measure to the same songs with the same energy.
THE SMOKIN' PILCHARDS
https://smokinpilchards.weebly.com/
The Smokin’ Pilchards are an alternative folk-stomping shanty machine based in the UK playing sea-shanty inspired folk and blues about murder, mischief and mis-adventure.
The Band is made up of brothers John (Vocals and guitar) and Ed Cartwright (Sax), Blues legend Roberto Carlucci (Lead Guitar), Ryan Peters (U Bass) Chrissy Velveteen (Backing vocals) and Tracy Hickinbottom (Cajon and occasionally Kit).
