UK alt-pop-punkers Skinny Knowledge and Los Angeles USA indie rockers Bittersweethearts play The Thunderbolt Bristol in an exciting double-headline show, support TBA.

 

Skinny Knowledge

 

Skinny Knowledge are an exciting 4-piece alt-rock band bursting out from the south coast of England. The band's sound and high energy live performances capture the vibrancy of the raw and raucous, early 90's grunge and pop-punk sound reminiscent of the likes of Foo Fighters, Green Day, Nirvana and Sum 41. The brightly coloured band have earned praise and airplay from a plethora of high-profile platforms including Planet Rock, Kerrang!, Classic Rock Magazine ‘Tracks of The Week’ inclusions upon 7 occasions, BBC Introducing, HRH Radio, Amazing Radio and more. The cheeky-chappy lads have brought their effervescent live show to various venues and festivals including Teddy Rocks and the inaugural Maid of Stone in Kent to an emphatic ovation in a packed out marquee stage. Following the release of their highly acclaimed debut album ‘Don’t Turn Out The Lights’, in 2023 the band released their incendiary sophomore album ‘twentytwo.’. The collection of raw-forward striking and personal songs delighted fans, gained new ones and garnered stellar reviews across the board with Classic Rock proclaiming “An enviable ability to turn out exhilarating and immediate tunes. 8/10”

 

Bittersweethearts

 

Hailing from Southern California USA, Bittersweethearts bring ethereal Tarantino-esque indie-rock vibes, with an air of Blondie mixing a cocktail with Mazzy Star in a back alley behind CBGB’s in Manhattan's East Village, heightened with a garnish of Shirley Manson. Having made their first official performance at the world renowned NAMM Show in Anaheim, the band are swiftly gaining fans from 4 singles released (their latest ‘Empty’ was a Classic Rock Magazine Track of The Week) and received emphatic receptions earlier in 2023 on their first European/UK tour. This was followed by tours in the US taking in a number of legendary venues in addition to having played Whisky A Go Go and The Viper Room on their local Californian coast.
