MARKED MEN
"The Marked Men formed in 2002 in the ashes from The Reds in Denton, Texas.Though the band has been kicking around in some form since 2002, their entire output came in one prolific burst from 2003 to 2009, a six-year period in which they churned out four beloved LPs. They stay relevant, though, by coming out of semi-retirement to play the occasional show, and their members keep active in the scene through various projects like Mind Spiders, Radioactivity, and Low Culture, and fragments of The Marked Men’s sound can be heard across each of them"
If you're into catchy power pop'ish garage-punk, it doesn't get better than this
This is a show not to be missed.

BIG MESS
Copenhagen punk rock/power pop band BIG MESS is a pile of hooks and energy. Taking their cues from the timeless masters of melody, loud guitars and high BPMs, their music packs an infectious punch.
CLEANING UP WITH BIG MESS is the band's fourth full length and its first collaboration with UK-based label Specialist Subject. The album shows Big Mess at their most accomplished yet, and shows total dedication to reaching the ultimate in hit making. Imagine a singles compilation by your favourite band and you get the idea.
Songwriting is key for Big Mess - as much Brill Building sparkle as hardcore punk economy, with no room for duds. Lyrically, the songs are heartfelt and occasionally stupid, with the dangers and difficulties of existence and the joys of rocking holding equal importance.
Having been a band for nearly a decade, Big Mess’ playing is instinctive, effortless and relentless topped with vocals that combine a hooky sense of melody and rhythm with the right amount of desperation. This time the band adds a refreshingly shameless amount of backing vocals and harmonies that only add to the effective singalong quality.

KEVIN LEO
Kevin Leo's been active on the Danish punk, skal and reggae-scene since the late 90's. He's known as the front man in bands like Leo & The Lineup and current his in the Danish allstar ska band The Chains.
This is his first project in his own name. Genre-wise the best way to describe the music is somewhere between garage-punk and power pop. Soon you can hear why on the forthcoming KODA-supported EP "The Great Escape". It will be released on vinyl and streaming.
Kevin Leo's band consists well known musicians from the Danish punk scene: Tobias Munk Åkesson - Bass, Leo Wallin - Drums and Andrew Gabriel - Guitar and Synth
