Bad Friday All-Dayer

Forget the heritage acts and the overpriced stadium lager. Bad Friday returns: Eight bands. One ticket. Food included. An all-dayer built on high-velocity, DIY ethics… and the smell of charcoal.

YAANG are Manchester’s premier pop-art provocateurs. They aren't "post-punk"—they’re fully carbonated, caffeinated, and non-genre compliant. Expect motorik synths, drum machines, and chaotic energy that moves from gliding 80s power ballads to airport barfights in a single heartbeat.

COWBOYY: South Coast art-pop architects. Part math-rock, part jazz, entirely confusing to those who like their music predictable.

PIGEON DOG: North London grunge. Gritty, filthy, and bursting with spiky riffs that tackle gender dysphoria and dissociation with a sneer.

NATIONAL PLAYBOYS: Edinburgh’s post-punk 5-piece. High-impact energy meeting synth-driven hooks.

ASBESTOS SALESMAN: Southend’s "post-slop" duo. Recorded in a shed, sounding like Squid meeting Blur in a trough of toxic positivity.

NAOMI IN BLUE: British-Chilean Americana. A striking blend of folk-soul and heavy-synth power, anchored by a voice that stops rooms.

JUST KIDS: An indie-pop duo where Springsteen meets Fugazi. Emotional, relatable, and dripping in second-hand smoke.

SASHES: South London’s 17-foot-tall (combined) three-piece. Scuzzy riffs, domestic rebellion, and a live presence that leaves you exhilarated and uneasy.

It’s an adventure in angular pop and beautiful noise. Eat the food. Hear the future. See you at the front.

Presented by Sonic Tonic.

This is an 18+ event.
