Charlie Smith

My name might be common, but my style is alternative. I'm Charlie Smith a raw, honest, singer-songwriter from Hampshire, UK. I host and perform at my own shows at venues such as the Railway Inn, The Attic, and Crosfield Hall. In October 2023, I embarked on my first solo tour of northern England, performing in Leicester, Leeds, Liverpool, and Stockton. My most recent 'DIY Tour 24' was built around showcasing local musicians and took me along the south of England (Brighton, Portsmouth, London, and Southampton). The 3-track single 'God Doesn't Hate You' Recorded on a Zoom R8 is my first release of 2025 marking an adventure back into lo-fi recording. Using nothing but a portable recorder, its microphones & effects, proved a welcome challenge. What the three tracks lack in polish they make up with creativity. It proves that even with limited studio equipment you can make music.

D'Kenzion

Ged, a singer-songwriter for over forty years and a published author with a series of books ‘Neander and the Dark Matter’. Over the years he has written music for his own and other bands, plus for two-stage shows performed in the Hoxton theatre, London.
With a blues/rock influence, D’ KenZion is a tilt of the soft cloth cap to the works of Charles Dickens. The songs whilst light and groovy, are a comment on the injustice in the world today and a tribute to the works of Mr D.

Becky Brown

Becky Brown is a singer-songwriter from the southeast. Her songwriting is influenced by pop singer-songwriters such as Taylor Swift, Lauren Aquilina and Nina Nesbitt. She is also heavily inspired by pop punk artists including the likes of Paramore and Avril Lavigne. Last year, Becky released her debut EP, ‘Gone’, from which the single ‘Insomnia' was played on BBC Music Introducing. On Sunday 20th October, her second EP, ‘Drinking in the sunlight’, released which includes the singles ‘Bubbles’, ‘Just met you’ and her ‘James Bond theme soundtrack,’ ‘I wish you well.’

The Guillotine Union Boys

The wokeabilly band that neoliberal authoritarians love to hate. Join the Reverend Sam and Bo Gallows' picket line as they bring their brand of hometruth agit-folk to the masses. With lightning-quick finger picking, stomping rhythms, and rallying rebel yells, this act is for the many, not the few
