The Curfew:
Three-piece rock band from Nottinghamshire, blending spiky indie riffs with a healthy disregard for subtlety. The Curfew play both originals and covers with a sound that nods to early 2000s guitar bands and the unrulier end of British rock. Raised on hand-me-down records and northern sarcasm, their music is sharp, scruffy, and just the right amount of loud. Expect tight hooks, rough edges, and a set that’s more fun than it has any right to be.

Gordon Pocket:
Gordon Pocket is an amusing musical folky wordsmith from the seven hills of Sheffield. He has a long history of tickling Sheffield's cultural extremities as DJ, impresario and double bassist. In June 2024 he released his debut album, Happy Anniversary, to worldwide acclaim. It is 12 songs of innuendo, folk, sex addicts, Scunthorpe and Monty Don.
Saliva Birds:
Saliva Birds were formed in the medieval backstreets of York in 2022. They are a raw, high energy fusion of garage rock grit and post-grunge angst. Born out of middle aged boredom and a shared love of distortion-drenched riffs, the band channels the spirit of their generation into a cathartic, unapologetic sound.
Their music fuses the pulse of 90s grunge and and the edge of 70s punk that creates moody introspection and garage rock’s snarly intensity, blending crashing drums and roaring guitars and vocals that swing from gutteral shouts to aching melodies.
They have released four tracks on Spotify and have videos on Youtube. Their last single ‘Time is Out’ was chosen for a BBC Introducing playlist in 2024. They’ve played a handful of live shows across York and Hull and are keen to play many more gigs in 2025.
