THE FALLEN LEAVES - serving 'Punk Rock for Gentleman', this classic band traces its roots all the way back to The Subway Sect. Their sound has been described as "Somewhere between The Who and The Ramones” and they will be showcasing their latest album: "Simple Songs for Complex People”.

SOCIAL SECURITY - After seeing The Damned perform in late 76, Social Security left their jobs and signed on. They recruited 'Spy' a Damned roadie so named because the Damned were convinced he was a spy for the Pistols. With 'Spy' on board as their new singer, The Socials became major players in the Bristol and West Country's burgeoning punk scene.
Signed by Heartbeat Records They went on to record their first single on Bristol's newly formed Heartbeat record label. The single, a four track E.P. Was critically acclaimed by the legendary John Peel. Over the years the single has been re-released appearing on many highly regarded Punk anthology albums.
After a lot of arm twisting by their former management and due to public pressure Social Security relented and have now reformed playing extensively and showcasing their unique wit and song writing abilities. Social Security are true originals, Don't miss them!!

CARNIEPUNKS -play 'Acid-crypt swamp-punkadelia'. They channel the spirits of early post-punk bands such as Killing Joke, Bauhaus and The Birthday Party and the deranged psychedelic blues of Dr John the Night Tripper. Carniepunks excavate the ghosts of their birthplace's dark heart in drum-heavy songs spiked with a tincture of dread. The fetid Avon delta is a cursed place full of bad magic.

THE EIDERDOWNS -The Eiderdowns - Garage folk rock janglers with a psych twist - taking cues from the Byrds and The Lovin' Spoonful.
