Ringlets (NZ)

Ringlets are bringing their razor-sharp post-punk from New Zealand to Europe for the first time. Accompanied by Bristol’sl art-rock four piece Bludud and Bath favourites 1000 Legs the trio take to the stage of Roseberry Road Studios for a very special warm-up performance for this year’s Fringe.

Fresh off a run of packed festival shows and a new album The Lord Is My German Shepherd (Time for Walkies) out this June via Flying Nun Records, Ringlets are fast becoming one of Aotearoa’s most exciting exports.

Press love from Rolling Stone, Brooklyn Vegan, and Post-Punk.com — plus #1 on the NZ Alternative Charts.

South-west 4-piece Bludud make songs in a shed. Drawing on the art rock of Radiohead, the Chicago post-rock scene & the DIY spirit of Copenhagen’s guitar driven alt-indie sound, their songs are shaped by whichever instruments the fluid quartet picked up that day. Bludud’s sound is (probably) folk-rock - underpinned by the electric guitar, linear drumming, half-spoken, half-sung lyrics - though sometimes there are flutes, bowed bass and violins. They have been playing tunes from their forthcoming debut record (recorded at Humm Studios, January 2026) around Bristol for much of 2025

1000 legs muster a circus of freak performers from London to Bristol, celebrating the release of a new single. 1000 legs are a ghoulish-funforallthefamily-new-wave-electro-punk five piece based in Bristol. Kinetically blessed and endowed with volatile force, 1000 legs are an ugly, bestial addition to the southwest scene.
