Event information
An afternoon of fantastic music from Beverage of the Wise, No Degrees, Everything In Mono and Space Case.
All ages welcome however under 18s must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and it must be 1 adult per 4 under 18s.
Beverage of the Wise is a dynamic 5-piece band who are making a name for themselves in the South West London and Surrey youth music scene after winning the Juniors Battle of the Bands 2025. They deliver high-energy polished performances of classic metal and rock covers along with their fresh and vibrant original songs.
These about 5ft (mentally 7 foot 10) guys are about to hijack the Punk scene. Like Alvin and The Chipmunks AND DAVE on steroids. Their image not only includes the raw punk ambience of the past, but also blends in the emotional intensity of emo introducing a new sound that ascends the modern alternative scene. Both Xanne and Marshall deliver fierce lyrics that tackle corruption within modern society, often punctuated by wild screams, making their sound intensely political, rebellious, and true to the uncompromising spirit of modern punk. Bassist Marshall channels unapologetic rage through punchy baselines. Guitarists Aaron and Xanne through their messy distorted guitars. And last but not least, Ivy with his piercing complex drums. Not being afraid to critique modern society & politics with a unique touch. Such as inviting “Rishi Sunak’’ on stage and labelling him as a ‘Wanker’, whilst covering ‘Anarchy in the UK’ by Sex Pistols.
- Ps we’re not 12 x
Since rocketing out of the womb Everything in Mono have been making a name for themselves with a chaotic larger than life stage presence which appeared on BBC 1, ITV, and packed out shows from the smallest venues all the way to the Royal Albert Hall. It’s no wonder NME 2026 has them pegged to be the musical torchbearers of their generation!
Space Case are a South-West London band, inspired by a wide array of musical genres, resulting in a fusion of shoegaze, indie, math rock etc... So far, they have played notable venues such as The Spice of Life, The Camden Club and The Hope and Anchor, and whilst they predominantly play originals, they are no strangers to taking a cover and completely shaking it up.
