25/04/2024

1 day: 1 artist left to announce 🟡

Obviously it's our iconic HEADLINER performing TOMORROW! 🟨

When I first heard Khalid's music I really resonated with the self-reflective nature of his lyrics, especially in 'SCREW IT' (probs my fave song). I could tell he was not only a super talented musician, producer, creator, rapper, but also such a deep thinker and in turn, a brilliantly wise lyricist. ⭐ 'Happy To Be Here' as a project feels like needed spreading of gratitude and life reflection.

KINGKHAN also represents Middle Eastern Asian diaspora (like me) and with a mix of his Welsh identity, I love to see more brown artists in the spotlight 😍

I cannot wait to hear him perform live, and as should you! Come on down from 7pm for doors. 7:30pm for the first support acts and .crash.course ☺️

24/04/2024

2 days left, 2 artists left to announce 🔴

For Friday's headline ☕ we've got the talented 🟥

When I first heard Beyblis, I was impressed with his rap sound, it was reminiscent of Brockhampton. I really enjoy his dynamic production style and his memorable voice. I can't wait to see him bring his songs to life, live for the very first time!

You don't wanna miss music either! Check him out on SoundCloud 🎶

23/04/2024

3 days: 3 acts left to announce 🟠

Our next support act for Friday's headline at
is Crash Course ☕
crash.course / .y.c comes to us with his smooth raps, exploring life experience. For me, I enjoy Connor's sound as he blends his smooth vocals, seamlessly raps in a low-key way as though his flow is nothing but his natural mode of expression. Not only that, he writes meaningful and personal lyrics, which I think all can relate to. Be sure to check him out 🔶

Doors are at 7pm. Acts start at 7:30pm. Tickets link in bio ✨🔗

Come on down!
