Headsticks - Formed in 2012 Headsticks have built a substantial fanbase and earned a fine reputation for their very own brand of folk roots infused punk rock'n'roll. They have toured with the likes of New Model Army, Steve Ignorant’s Crass, and Ferocious Dog as well as supporting a wide range of artists transcending genres and receiving equally high praise from the pillars of punk, folk, roots, and rock. Four Studio albums, 2 Studio EP's, and a live Album have received stunning reviews, with Vive Le Rock magazine describing the band as 'A breath of fresh air', while Louder Than War encourage you to 'Get out there and see these guys; talk about them. Get the revolution started!'. The Ring Master Reviews regard the band as ‘One of the most irresistible and essential punk’n’roll adventure’ and whether it’s the full throttle, heart pounding stompers, the anthemic singalongs, or the haunting acoustic ballads, Headsticks deliver an experience like no other band, built on honesty, integrity, bloody hard work, and a passion for what they do and for what they believe.

Eastfield - Over 25 years of playing catching 3 chord catchy tunes containing contemporary comment, train references, 1970s TV and first-hand experiences. The band originally started in Birmingham by founder members Jessi and Bambi, named after a Glasgow train depot, to reflect a love of diesel trains! Eastfield have been shunting throughout the UK and Europe and have continued to maintain a DIY ethic throughout and long may this continue.

Surgery Without Research - Formed in 2000, Surgery Without Research have played many festivals including Rebellion, Morecombe Punkfest, Slugfest and Crashfest in the USA. They have supported the likes of GBH, Subhumans, Discharge, Anthrax, Peter and the Test Tube Babies and The UK Subs to name but a few. They've released multiple CD's and vinyl recording. Under the motto of "Punk'til Death Surgery have played all over the UK and Ireland are now making a much overdue return to Margate.
