About this Event

They said it couldn't be done. And, well, this isn't the Alldayer so it hasn't. But despite various issues in putting our usual full day together which have meant the full thing has had to be put on ice for at least the time being we've still managed to put together a high quality selection of DIY pop fun in its place. Doors 6pm, venue 18+ (sorry)

PERSONAL BEST
South coast-based melodic power-pop project showcasing tales of queer romance, personal anxiety and optimism. Toured with Mitski in 2017, new album soon

WOLF GIRL
A return visit now they have a great second album out, matching personal songs about acceptance and outsider-ness to driving indie-punk

PET CROW
Noisy, surfy, garagey post-punk from Derby nodding to riot grrl and Sonic Youth. Recently played with Menace Beach, Dream Nails and Kermes

PANIC POCKET
DIY harmonic electropop BFFs who write "catchy songs about trash men, bad bosses and being creepy on the internet", played Indietracks and Cambridge Alldayer in 2018

BOARDER
New(ish) fuzzbomb DIY trio, already played with Estrons and Boy Azooga


SWEEPING THE NATION DJs
Indiepop, power-pop, DIY pop, punk, post-punk, odd pop and Lofty off Eastenders' cover of Subterranean Homesick Blues* for a while, free entry only after the live music.
