It's a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll!

This is London’s greatest and most sensational Rhythm’n’Blues-Punk band. And this is a band that truly represents London, being a mongrel mix of Caribbean, France, Japan and Spain. With a repertoire influenced by many of the great songs of the ’50s and ’60s made to sound fresh and new to modern ears, you won’t be able to help but move your feet when the Cumberland Three are blasting out of your speakers. The King howls like Screaming Jay Hawkins with Bo Diddley chasing his coat-tail whilst Andre Williams tries to offer up some of his bacon fat, and the Trashmen do the Surfin’ Bird behind him. This is a man that never stops shakin’ and twistin’ and groovin’. The Cumberland Three rock up a storm with their own branded mix of vintage rockabilly, desperate rock’n’roll and stomping soul, with fire, energy, gusto and, above all, fun!
SNAKEMILK are the sloppiest bastards in the East. Playing Psychobilly Garage Rock, the trio of Boomslang, Mamba, and Rattlesnake are here to make everything filthy. Scuzzy slide guitar, rumbling synthesizer, and pounding jungle drums, all raw and crunchy. Their sound fuses the early 2000s garage rock revival with elements of psychobilly, traditional blues, and 90s alt-country. Formed in Norwich, but channelling somewhere unhinged, they’re ready to slop everywhere.
They’re always fuzzy, always thumping, and are on their way to burning down the house, the village, the country, and next, the world.
