Event Information
Willow the Wise is a bold, unpredictable performer with a big voice and an even bigger playlist. Refusing to stick to one genre (or even one octave), they bounce across the musical map with a set packed full of surprising covers, catchy favourites, and a few left-field gems you didn’t know you needed. Expect fun, chaos, and at least one song that’ll be stuck in your head all week.
Chaos Summit are tearing it up with pounding riffs inspired by Iron Maiden and Metallica, spiked with the funk and fire of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Hendrix. The result? A crushing, high energy sound that hits hard and doesn’t let up! Keep your eyes these teenagers aren’t just promising…they mean serious business.
Huge shout-out to Rob Lehane Rock School for their incredible work nurturing young musicians and building real confidence through music. Always inspiring to see the next generation of rockers coming through.
The Erins serve up original melodic indie rock with a light punk tarnish, delivering tight, memorable and high‑energy sets. Formed in 2025 at the legendary George and Dragon open‑mic, their edgy songwriting is a heartfelt examination of life and all it can throw at us.
Rachel Early is a singer /songwriter from Bedfordshire. She sings a mix of soul, folk, pop, country, funk & indie vibes.

Saxophonly Fans is an explosive saxophone trio that isn’t afraid to get sweaty and play a little dirty. Stripping down your favourite angst-filled rock, punk, and indie anthems like you've never heard before. Serving raw energy, tight musicianship, and brassy attitude on full display, it hits all the right spots. It’s loud, unexpected, and a little bit cheeky. With no guitars in sight, this band is here to prove that saxophones can scream - no strings attached! www.saxophonlyfans.com

The Black Zodiac lurk in the shadowlands between southern gothic blues, grunge rock, alt-country and folk. Their debut album The Tyrant is packed with dark tales of redemption and revenge — have-a-go heroes and drifters caught between light and shadow. Live, they bring a swampy, slow-burning intensity: gnarled guitars, bruised rhythms and preacher vocals delivering a back-road sermon that snarls, stretches and bleeds under the lights.
The Strand bring a jagged blast of punk energy smashed straight into fuzz-soaked indie noise, serving up riffs that hit like a cheap lager to the face (in a good way). Regulars on the London circuit, they’ve built a reputation for sweaty, no-nonsense live shows packed with hooks, attitude, and enough distortion to rattle the walls. Loud, sharp, and impossible to ignore.
Elastic Cats - All killer no filler. This Tring-based rock covers band brings the anthems that defined a generation — from 90s rock classics to 00s indie and pop-punk bangers! Expect the kind of tunes that still hit just as hard today!
