Unknown Pleasures- These guys and their primal, punky, poised and perky take on the incredible Joy Division canon have been doing the rounds as long as Buggerbear…we’re a match made in heaven, haha. Always an ace night out…yes ‘Ian Curtis’ has adapted the trademark moves a tad since he ahem died and maybe slightly more padded than you recall, and Peter Hook seems to have transmogrified into a goff Yul Bryner etc etc but don’t watch that….a brilliant and lovestruck tribute to adore. The Nevers- Formed in April 2024 by the unholy trinity of Joe Cusack (Lead Vocals), Stanley Nunes (Drums), and Lucas Brasenell (Lead Guitar), these guys locked themselves away, sacrificing sleep for sound. The result? A perfectly honed sonic weapon. The final, glorious piece of this rock and roll puzzle clicked into place in June 2024 with the arrival of George Rowe (Bass), proving that sometimes, the best things come to those who wait. “Turn it up, listen with us,” they command. And the collective response from their rapidly expanding legion of devotees? “How could we possibly not?!” The Nevers aren’t just gaining momentum; they’re a runaway train with a killer soundtrack. Mark our words: this isn’t just a band to watch; it’s a band you’ll be bragging about discovering before they inevitably take over the world. You’ve been warned!
