Get ready for an unreal Friday night of live music on November 20th at The Great Southern for The Southbound Live!If you're in the Gipsy Hill & Crystal Palace area, come down for an incredible lineup featuring high-energy tribute power and brooding, savage elegance.
Back Stabbath
Back Stabbath are a London based Black Sabbath cover band formed in the summer of 2025 featuring Simon Fitzpatrick (Carl Palmer Band), Sam Dunthorne, Scott Perry and James Wilde (all Taikonaut).
After being unable to get tickets for Black Sabbath’s retirement show, the group were inspired to put on their own gig in London for everyone who wasn’t able to attend Back To The Beginning in Birmingham. After that successful performance at The Underworld, Camden, raising money for Suicide Prevention UK, Back Stabbath have continued to honour the legacy of Black Sabbath and Ozzy with their high energy and authentic cover show.
The Velveteen Orkestra feat. Dan Shears
The Velveteen Orkestra has the ability to make audiences swoon while, at the same time, casting forth an air of unease with their intoxicating hybrid of rich romanticism and brutal intensity. Embodying essences of European folk and Americana with nodding acquaintances to Neil Young, Nick Cave, Tom Waits and Radiohead, their sound can gently pluck at your heartstrings while, at the same time, delicately slipping them around your neck.
The Velveteen Orkestra are a ragged-trousered rock and roll orchestra conceived in a leaky, shadow-veiled district of South London. Bellowing out from underneath the grey brutalist tower blocks named in honour of romantic poets is a sound that is both savage, yet elegant… animal, yet noble… honest, yet fantastical.
Their pulsating live shows are attracting audiences for their rich romanticism and brooding intensity, as well as their sparkling sense of humour. Lead Singer/Guitarist Dan Shears emits a gilt-edged voice from a spindle-limbed frame,evoking memories of Jeff Buckley at his heart-aching best.
