MAMBOWAMBO:
Formed in 2020, MamboWambo is a North Hertfordshire based band & the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist & composer Mark Whaymand.
With a wealth of highly experienced musicians, they develop & showcase original music, based around Mark’s compositions.
While marketed as a Groove band, their style & feel is very different to other bands from this Genre, attracting audiences of all ages.
LOCKDOWN CO:
Forged in the global standstill of 2020, Lockdown Co. is a hard-hitting rock trio delivering an energetic blend of metal, blues, and prog-infused rock. Comprising of drummer Doug Rimington, guitarist Lloyd Meeks, and vocalist Leah Bell-Miller, the band has built a reputation for a sound that is as melodic and complex as it is unapologetically loud.
As independent artists, the trio has self-produced two EPs and carved out a definitive space in the London and South East live circuits. Described by Return of Rock as “one of the UK’s most intriguing underground acts,” Lockdown Co. is best experienced in the flesh, where their technical precision meets raw, infectious energy.
SYCAMORE:
Sycamore are a 5-piece psychedelic rock band, specialising in hypnotic riffs that are decorated amongst sullen vocals and winding basslines, each show guarantees to be uniquely distinct and chaotically memorable!
THE LIME STONES:
The Lime Stones are a four-piece indie rock band from Bedfordshire, taking inspiration from early Arctic Monkeys, The Wombats, Royal Blood and a variety of other heavier influences.
On stage, the Lime Stones are mesmerisingly intense. They will be sure to captivate you through the electric synergy of their performances.

Vocalist and rhythm guitarist – Jacob Allen
Lead guitarist – Josh Renforth
Bassist – Alger King
Drummer – Ewan Broom
