Event information
Shenanigans Music are delighted to welcome back the fantastic Pete Bentham and The Dinner Ladies. They absolutely stormed it at Claptrap in December 2022 so we're really looking forward to this one.
For those of you unfamiliar with the band, we at Shenanigans Music hear hints of classic rock’n’roll, The Modern Lovers and X-Ray Spex combined with fabulous lyrics that put them in the top league alongside the likes of Half Man Half Biscuit.
What the band says –
“Kitchencore from Liverpool…Make Scouse, Not War!
We play primitive rock and roll and sing about things we believe in. We are part of the European DIY underground scene.
We started in 2008 and have released four full length albums and two vinyl EP’s. We have played hundreds of shows around the UK and Europe and festivals such as Rebellion, Fire in The Mountain and Sound City”
What Anitpop Records say –
“Their songs are witty and quirky tales featuring sensitive Lorry Drivers, Rude Statues, Goth Postmen and their heroes such as Yuri Gagarin and Marcel Duchamp. Always original, funny and poignant.”
Support on the night comes in the form of Billy Whizz. In a shameless steal from the blurb of their last Claptrap appearance, “Billy Whizz deliver fast, furious pop-punk with dry wit and a knowing wink. They’re thrashy but never trashy, relentlessly loud and exhilaratingly good”. Check them out at https://soundcloud.com/billywhizzband
