Get ready, music fans! Switzerland's legendary garage punk band, The Monsters, are finally hitting the UK shores after forming back in 1986. Known for their one-riff trash rock that defies the mainstream, The Monsters bring a fusion of '60s garage punk, rockabilly, and primitive rock 'n' roll, with a touch of black metal boogie. They're not your typical chart-toppers; they're the embodiment of raw, live energy, having toured globally and shared stages with icons like Guitar Wolf and The Sonics.

Their discography includes eight albums, with standout releases like “Youth Against Nature” recorded at London's Toe Rag Studios, and the innovative “I See Dead People,” which came with a puzzle and other collectibles. Their latest, “M,” continues their legacy on Voodoo Rhythm Records, run by their frontman, Reverend Beat-Man.

Joining them are Young Francis Hi Fi from Brighton, England, the torchbearers of Bubblegum Punk. With their two-minute anthems about love, life, and liberation, they're the voice of the new generation. Their debut “The Young Generation,” also recorded at Toe Rag Studios, is a quick 13-song rush of danceable, romantic punk that captures the essence of '60s bubblegum and '70s punk.


Don't miss this explosive evening where The Monsters and Young Francis Hi Fi promise to deliver an unforgettable night of punk rock magic.
