⭐️ 4.5/5 

The band delivered a relaxed indie set built around a mellow, atmospheric sound that called to mind King Krule and Pulp. What began as a subdued, hazy performance gradually opened into more upbeat and energetic moments, giving the set a strong sense of progression. The room remained packed throughout, with barely anyone leaving, a clear sign the crowd stayed fully engaged from start to finish. Between songs, the singer’s confident and easy-going chat helped create an intimate atmosphere, while the mix of Welsh and English vocals brought extra warmth and character to the performance.

MICAH SAGE – KOMEDIA 

⭐️ 4/5


The band leaned fully into a playful, offbeat aesthetic, with funky pink sunglasses, orange-pink lighting, and streams of bubbles helping to create a vibrant atmosphere throughout the set. Backed by a strong and confident stage presence, they kept the crowd engaged with constant interaction and infectious energy from start to finish.

JOAN AND THE GIANTS – KOMEDIA

⭐️ 4.5/5 

The band delivered an alt-pop and rock set driven by powerhouse vocals and an emotionally charged performance. Dressed in a whimsical white floaty dress, the frontwoman commanded the room with energetic movement and consistently strong crowd engagement throughout the band’s first UK show. Vulnerable lyricism and candid moments between songs helped build a genuine connection with the audience, while the packed-out room remained fully engaged from beginning to end.

LEMONSUCKR* – CONCORDE 2

⭐️ 5/5

The room was close to full before the band had even begun, with the audience immediately engaged from the opening track. Bright lighting, crowd dancing, clapping, and a later mosh pit combined to create a chaotic and blistering atmosphere that only intensified as the set progressed. The band’s explosive performance carried a relentless energy throughout, while the frontman’s commanding stage presence held the crowd’s attention from start to finish,
