Litopia All Shows

They won our coveted track of the year award on our last show, and now the Bar Stool Preachers are playing live in the Hungry & Hunted studio. The hot young Brighton band are as bracing as a 6am plunge in the English Channel. Influenced by 2-Tone and streetpunk, the Preachers are in the vanguard of the new south coast sound that is as passionate as it is authentic and melodic. A proper alternative to mainstream pop pap. Other great bands this edition include Alan McGee’s new signing Alias Kid who are latest of Manchester’s swaggering terrace pop likely lads. Will they follow Oasis into the charts? McGee certainly thinks so. On Trial, Reading punks with brain and punch Christine ‘Sugary’ Staple, with her ‘Original Rude Girl Sound’ New Hampshire’s granite-hard Iron Chin, where streetpunk meets arena rock Punk veterans Sonny Vincent & Spite, including members of the Damned, the Sex Pistols and the Stooges Glasgow’s boisterous Amphetameanies who marry 2-Tone with 1977 energy and backstreet attitudes
