GUITAR GANGSTERS
Guitar Gangsters rose to the surface of the tidal wave of post punk guitar bands of the late 1980’s appearing on the seminal “Underground Rockers” compilation alongside similar revolutionaries, The Senseless Things, The Crack & Manic Street Preachers.
Recording their first album in 1988, the band found its voice through the influence of the first wave of punk with a salute to the impact of bands like The Boys, Generation X, The Pistols, Ramones, The Saints and The Clash.
With infectious melodies and irresistible anthems, the band toured with Stiff Little Fingers in the UK and cemented their place as a formidable live act in the early 1990’s while still only a three
piece.
In 2019 this London three piece became a four piece with the addition of Ed Sonsino on guitar – the big sound got even bigger! In a post pandemic 2022, Guitar Gangsters made a return with the release of their 11th studio album, “Fortune Favours The Brave” and gigged throughout 2022 in UK and Europe. 2024 sees the release of the vinyl EP “The Faithful”, the title track for which is a salute to all those that have found punk to be the place where they belong. To mark the 35th anniversary of the release of the band’s first album “Prohibition”, a new vinyl live studio session performance will be released in May.
Guitar Gangsters will always stick proudly to their inspirational punk rock guns with more than just a hint of rock’n’roll attitude. With a formidable back catalogue and a swagger that is only achieved through years of experience, there’s never been a better time to see this band live and to be part of the next chapter.

EASTFIELD
Back and rightly so as this is a cracking band who are always welcome back to us at Undercover, pretty much plying for us at least once a year, twice this time for Eastfield as they are also playing Undercover Festival (South Essex) in Sept.

A COUPLE OF CHANGES TO THE ORIGINAL LINE UP
SPIZZENERGI were booked for this gig but have without prior discussion or regard for those who have purchased tickets / hotels etc bailed. Kenneth Spiers (aka "Spizz") pulled the gig despite being booked for several months. A pretty appalling state of affairs, but hey ho...
Pleased to announce that Guitar Gangsters have steped in to fill that slot.
RED Anger are no longer able to play this one but they will be back with us soon.
Pleased Geezapunx have steped in for that, good lads those guys.
THREE awsome bands and time to party!!!!!!!
See ya down the front or at the bar.
