Fusing pop inflicted melodies with shoegaze and post-punk, Sussex-based Table Football craft wonderfully ramshackle pop songs. Underneath layers of scratchy guitars, catchy melodies rear their heads, making songs that echo with simplicity and immediacy. Already known for their energetic and lively shows, the five piece have gigged prolifically in the local area, including two nights supporting The Blockheads.
