SOME VELVET MORNING

NIYI
Too cool for school, genre-bending music – perfectly beat matching surf rock with hardcore-gabba and rap. Has to be seen to be believed!

WATERMELONS
"Infectiously hooky indie pop, decent sing-along choruses reminiscent of Kings Of Leon and spiky Artic Monkeys guitaring, good enough to eat…" - Hope and Anchor, London.Amazing audiences across the with their outstanding original material and catchy songs such as, “Dancing with the Wrong One” and “Wait”.
Their live performances are a contrast between professionalism and naivety that gives them a charm everyone will fall for. This is a band that loves to perform, loves their audiences - and knows how to have a good time!
MORE LIGHT, MORE POWER
“Fay [vocalist] is our totem animal, to describe her potty-mouthed massive-brained punk rock vibe we would have to go as far as to drop the word ‘fierce’ in there. Opps, we just did. – JUKE MAGAZINE.
“Fay [vocalist] is our totem animal, to describe her potty-mouthed massive-brained punk rock vibe we would have to go as far as to drop the word ‘fierce’ in there. Opps, we just did. – JUKE MAGAZINE.MORE LIGHT MORE POWER: Dystopian experimental rock inspired by the magickal glamour and filth of London. With heavy hearts and diamond eyes they watched the towers fall against ashen skies, the new Kingdom has come and we sit at the feet of a dark empire….
With songs about 9/11, the harrowing reality of class and exclusion in Britain and the hollow desperation of our slave society More Light More Power’s message is a brutal but honest one. This band don’t play at having a punk sensibility, they are a natural progression of the raw angst and frustration of the punk ethic. With a truly original sound and fronted by underground icon K-tron aka Fayann Smith their live show is an intriguing assault of idealism and earnest emotional potency. Drawing from occult imagery, personal mythos and the world of illicit and illegal subculture their twisted aesthetic is more than a posture; it is a lived and unsettling invocation to protect them from the numbness of the world around them.
