Redshift, Seven Crowns, Urzah, Sergeant Thunderhoof

Intense and at times brutal progressive melodic metal, Redshift have cultivated a loyal fanbase in the UK scene with their ambitious and sonically grandiose music. They will be premiering songs off their brand new album ‘Down The Wire’ which will be available to buy on the night, proudly released by Pale Wizard Records.

Seven Crowns

Often heralded as the best-kept secret in the British punk and alternative scene, Seven Crowns have been delivering genre-pushing music now for over two decades. 2026 sees the release of their new album ‘Haunted Head’ through Pale Wizard Records which operates directly out of Stage 2 Studios. The album sees their most ambitious work to date and will be available to buy on the night on Vinyl and CD.

Urzah

Post/progressive sludge-metal quartet URZAH have ignited Bristol's heavy underground scene. In 2024, they announced their incendiary debut album, 'THE SCORCHING GAZE,' and quickly signed with APF Records. 2026 sees the release of their second album ‘A Tranquil Void’, an astonishing collection of songs which takes their sound to a wider expanse.

Sergeant Thunderhoof

Since 2013, Sergeant Thunderhoof have released 5 studio albums, 2 live albums and have toured throughout the UK and Europe, as well as appearances in Las Vegas. Their 2024 album ‘The Ghost of Badon Hill’ reached number 24 in the Official UK Album Charts and achieved mass critical success in the likes of Metal Hammer Magazine, The Doom Charts and Kerrang.
