STUDIO 18 & SENTIENT RASH welcome you to the.……..

★ SENTIENT RASH SUMMER FEST ★
Here we go again! We were blown away by the response to our last day festival at Studio 18 & we are so keen to come back with new bands, artists & djs for another round of psych mayhem.

We have pulled together some of the best underground artists, musicians & freaks for a one-off extravaganza in the loving heart of the 5 valleys. A multimedia celebration of the extraordinary talents of our network of weirdos.

Lets ave it x

BANDS

★ EROTIC SECRETS OF POMPEII ★

Erotic Secrets of Pompeii play wild, weird apocalyptic lounge music - a twisted amalgamation of angular art rock and transgressive post-punk, transmitted directly from the heart of the forbidden zone.

"They are going to be as adored and revered as cult bands the Cardiacs and Virgin Prunes whilst having the potential to be Muse or Queen. Debut album Mondo Maleficum... is a masterpiece."
- Louder Than War

" They’re destined to be this generation’s Talking Heads."
- Amplify The Noise

★ SEAS OF MIRTH ★

Nottingham based Seas Of Mirth are a high-energy genre-swerving festival band with an interactive deep-sea twist. Fronted by the two founding guitarists Al Judders and C Ball Paul, their playfully inventive new album 'Kriller' covers everything from wonky disco funk to psychey prog-pop to worldly dance beats.

★ BIG HEAD MODE ★

Awesome psychedelic post-punk outfit clawing its way out of the swamps of Easton, Bristol. A dizzying blend of The Beatles’ melody, Sonic Youth’s noise, and The Fall’s sneer, their sound is an unpredictable trip—kaos pads, screeching feedback, electric toothbrushes, and rants that explode into soaring hooks

★ THROB★

Pure filth. High power raw & firey trash-thrash straight outta Radstock. A prime example of when an unholy amalgamation really cums together. Hold on to your murkins and prepare to Throb!

★ CHERRY CHAIN ★
Gorgeous & kaleidoscopic. This rising Bristol-based five-piece have captured the hearts and minds of the Bristol underground scene with their enigmatic blend of woozy slowcore, abrasive post-punk and otherworldly dream pop.

★ BUG FACER ★

Bug Facer are a brain-melting, eardrum-punishing, feedback-shredding squall of filthy chaos.

From early jams at the legendary Adelphi they have been crafting a mastered cacophony. Combining elements of noise rock, punk, sludge and post hardcore.

★ DOG OF MAN ★

Opening this years festival its Dog Of Man. Your favourite local milk fed-gimps cranking up the psych-punk freakout to cleanse you of all your recently collected worries, neuroses & general gumpf.

DJS
★ DJ CANT SAY NO ★

Closing this years festival its the peoples princess of hard dance!

She is there at all the best parties laying it down fast, hard and silly. We love her for it.

DJ Can’t Say No has been enforcing playtime across the underground scene, getting dance floors bouncing across the UK club and festival circuit in recent years with legendary sets at Bangface, Balter, Boomtown and Shambala Festivals. Her passion for music, dance and good times is infectious while she is on the decks, her frequent genre-mashing and fast bpms keep an audience literally on their toes. Expect sing-a-long donks, nightcore, mashups, bounce & breaks.

Drawn to the absolute freedom of mark and compositional experimentation, Walsh feels abstraction offers the true limitless potential not only for creative expression but to explore depths of the subconscious human condition.

★ THRACKH ★

London based illustrator who’s carnivalesque grotesques are perfectly at home with the underground punk and rave scene of the UK.
