Brudenell Social Club
To Kill A King - 16th January -The band have just released their newest single, Spiritual Dark Age, in the build up to their upcoming album to be released this year. To Kill A King started their career strongly with their two EPs, My Crooked Saint and Word of Mouth, and when their debut, Cannibals With Cutlery, was released in 2013 everyone knew that they weren't messing around and were here to stay. It's no surprise that they were picked to support Bastille after that. If a dyanmic production and thought-provoking lyrics are your thing you should listen to this band.

The Key Club
The Bronx - 16th January - Sold Out -A Los Angeles hardcore band who in their spare time also like to tie in Mariachi roots into their music. Ok that sounds a bit strange: in simple terms they have five albums under The Bronx which is your classic hardcore rock sound, and then there are three albums called Mariachi El Bronx which is their songs with a twist. So given all of that it's no surprise as to why this event is sold out.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9eQwWwCPaQ
