Strummer Room Records Presents.... Aqualine + Big Trousers + Lake Acacia

Event information

Returning to The Apothecary Tap for INDEPENDENT VENUE WEEK, we are proud to announce AQUALINE.

Guildford-based alternative rock five-piece AQUALINE are recently back from their first UK tour in support of the release of their EP, Tripwire. Fusing post-punk aggression, grunge, and ethereal shoegaze with bold experimental flourishes, the band explores themes of mental stability, disassociation, and self-identity in young adulthood.
They played at the Tap in October and wowed the crowd with their intense, atmospheric sound and captivating stage presence. Expect soaring guitar riffs, hypnotic rhythms, and raw, emotional vocals that linger long after the final note.
Aqualine are a band whose energy and artistry demand to be experienced live—this is a show not to be missed.

They’re joined by postmodern power-duo BIG TROUSERS, known for their high-volume, eccentric spoken-word experimental rock. Their new EP, WHAT WE TALK ABOUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE INTERNET, dives into surreal online worlds with absurdist lyrics and razor-sharp riffs.

LAKE ACACIA are a high-energy alt-rock duo from Oxfordshire, known for their heavy bass-driven sound, powerful drums, and tight vocal harmonies. Blending rock, metal, and electronic elements, they deliver an unexpectedly big and dynamic live performance for a two-piece band.
