Punk Fest 2019 is a tripled distilled show with three mixed flavours from the punk rock era of the British music scene. After their successful Anarchy Show last year at King George’s Hall, they are back with a twist for March 2019. Blended with music from Small Weller, one of the UK’s best Jam tribute bands, playing all the sounds of The Jam, such as ‘Going Underground’ and ‘Down in the Tube Station at Midnight’.
Small Weller have been invited to play across the UK in pubs, clubs, festivals and private functions. They have shared the stage with many, including The Bootleg Beatles, T-Rextasy, The Real Thing and The Bay City Rollers. What sets the band apart is their delivery and passion, the precision in the musicianship, the authentic equipment and the styling, which all together provides a high energy live show.
Next, we have one of the UK’s best Clash tribute bands, The Complete Clash. Playing all the classic tunes as they should be played, these guys have played sold out shows at the 100 Club in London; headlined The Punk Weekender at The Grand in Clitheroe; supported The Sex Pistols Experience at the O2 Academy in Newcastle and Manchester and twice played at the Butlins Alternative Music Festival in front of 2000 people alongside Toyah, Boomtown Rats, The Vapours and Ten Pole Tudor.
Close your eyes and go back in time: you will think you’re listening to the real thing!
Finally, The Sex Pistols tribute band, The Sex Pistols Experience will take the audience back to 1978, not only in sound but with the true likeness in character. One of the world’s number one professional tributes to the most outrageous and controversial band of all time. From their early beginnings performing pubs and clubs around England, they have worldwide reputation built from over 1,000 performances. Having toured extensively across the USA, Europe, and Brazil, in cities such as New York, Los Angeles, El Paso, Rio De Janeiro, Berlin, Barcelona, Bradford and everywhere in between!
So convincing is their live show that the BBC, Sky TV, Channel4, Fox TV and lately the film, Who Killed Nancy? have all hired this band for re-enactments. ‘The Sex Pistols Experience are the only band to of had the approval of the original Sex Pistols. Whilst on tour in America, they were invited as special guests on Jonesy’s Jukebox, the acclaimed radio show of Pistols guitarist, Steve Jones.
Spending the afternoon being interviewed and playing a few Sex Pistols favourites live on air together to millions of listeners throughout Los Angeles and across the worldwide web! Not to be missed! Relive your youth with music you have never forgotten!
