Widget:
“Queer funk punk darlings WIDGET are an East London supergroup comprised of members of Big Joanie, Junodef, all cats are beautiful and Zahra Haji Fath Ali Tehrani.
Sometimes nonsensical - often profound, their songs are heavily danceable and repeatedly listenable.
Wonky counterpoint guitar lines weave around each other over tightly locked funk grooves, reminiscent of The Slits, Talking Heads or ESG.
Their self-titled debut ep - out on Peach Records - is 5 tracks of self reflection and deprecation, niche throwbacks and hearty nods, subtle poetic flair and outright oddness. Uncle Buck, Flat Stanley, Myspace Tom, nothing is sacred for this peak millennial wildness in its final form.
Colour Me Wednesday:
Colour Me Wednesday are a DIY, political, queer, sister-fronted indie punk band. Come and catch their first full band performance in over 5 years!
