Wild gypsy-punk shenanigans with DRUNKEN BALORDI and a proper knees-up with the fantastic JARMEAN? backed by a fabulous line up of DJs, plus original videos, street photo slideshows and more.
LIVE ONSTAGE:
DRUNKEN BALORDI
Wild eyed accordion punk meets beer-spilling gypsy music hall tunes, mixing up Roma, Klezmer, Balkan and Russian into a knees-up mash-up with tales of drinking, erotic pleasure, temptation, vulgarity and life on the streets of the metropolis.
"Crazy high energy gypsy punk fusing World Punk, Balkan, Klesmir, folk and The Clash!"
JARMEAN?
This incredible outfit managed to mix up Ian Dury, punk and George Formby into an irresistible feast of knees up, good time music.
"Funk and skankalong pop reggae get the post Streets poetry treatment" - BLANG 2008
"Rag and bone folk punk uncannily spot on to their quoted influences of Ian Dury, Eric Idle and George Formby" - BUGBEAR 2008
"Heavenly London four piece Jarmean, funk and skankalong reggae, get the post Streets poetry treatment. Think Ian Dury meets George Formby with a jaw-dropping lady drummer" - LOST VAGUENESS
"Wonderfully old fashioned in a way that could only be British... 'Mind the Gap' tickles the fancy in a way that brass backed jingle can like no other." - GLASSWERK NATIONAL 2008
DJS!
We'll also have a full crew of hard-drinking Offline regulars throwing down a top selection of tunes, including:
EDITOR (urban75)
An ale-fuelled onslaught of ska, punk, rock'n'roll, big band, rockabilly, Mrs Mills & Liberace in a floor stomping package proving that drinking'n'DJing can be a perilous trade.
NIPSLA (Falling over studios)
Packing more pop than a Rice Krispies factory, Nipsla's DJ bag is a veritable jumble sale of joy, overflowing with indie, dance, electro and party tunes.
BARON BOBBY BAUHAUS (charcoal soul)
More mysterious than Robert Smith's eyeliner bag, Bobby gets dancefloors rocking with quirky, darkside indie-pop and kohl-smudging breakbeats.
