OH! GUNQUIT
Oh! Gunquit are a London based 5-piece Rumble-Bop, Surf-Punk Band who concoct a brew of Raw R&R, Wild GarageRock, and Twisted Freak-a-Billy.
The nucleus of the band started in 2010 after Tina (Vocals/Trumpet) & Simon (Guitar/Vocals) became neighbours and frequenting the same sweaty cellar dance nights around town. They formed the band around the idea of creating a new and vibrant blend of Primitive Surf, Garage-Punk, Exotica & RocknRoll.
Oh! Gunquit are named in part to a town in Maine US which was an artists colony in the 1800\'s originally coined by the Abenaki Indians and also in part to the idea of all guns quitting.
The Soundtrack to B-Movies, Road Trips, & Adventuring….Live the band are a blur of Howling Vocals, Horns, Buzzsaw Guitars, Rumbling Toms, and Exotic R&R fun.

EMPTIFISH
Truly legendary Portsmouth Surf-Punk Rock’n’Roll.
“The best band I’ve ever seen were from Portsmouth. They had so much raw talent it hurt. When they stood together on stage, motionless in a cyclone of trebly noise, they emitted the kind of aura I imagine The Beatles had in the early 60s. They were young, handsome, aloof – the most exquisite-looking ’80s garage band you could ever dream up. The girls adored them, the boys wanted to be them. The Pompey football hooligans ‘adopted’ them and the local authorities eventually banned them from performing (due to the fact that nearly all their gigs ended in a full-scale riot). In fact, Emptifish – as they were called – electrified Portsmouth for two years with the most thrilling racket cooked up since the Kingsmen knocked out ‘Louie Louie’ in some dingy 50-dollar studio. Like I said, the best band I’ve ever seen.”
Pat Gilbert (author of Passion Is A Fashion: The Real Story of The Clash, editor of Mojo magazine ) in Record Collector magazine, 1996.
