Constructed around the enduring nucleus of Sid Truelove and Zillah Minx, Rubella
Ballet formed at a gig in 1979 when Crass invited their audience to use their
equipment. Rubella Ballet assembled a diverse range of material that
encompassed all points from perky to doomy, with lyrics that juxtaposed protest and
dissent against more impressionistic themes. Danger of Death their last album, was a hit with critics and the group’s faithful following and drew upon a lifetime’s opposition to oppression and exploitation. Many cite it as the band’s crowning achievement.

Brigandage started in 1981 to remind people of the glory, colour and inclusiveness of 1976! There have been many members along the way but this version includes Terry, a founding member of Sex Gang Children, on bass; Carl of the Chefs and more, is our guitar hero and Alan takes care of the drumming.
Family of Strangers formed in Nov '23 and have loads of punk rock service under their belts. Inspired by legendary punk bands like Penetration, The Damned, The Cramps, UK Subs and Rancid, Family of Strangers delivers a raw and powerful sound. *Punktuation magazine (R.Rae) had this to say "the likes of ‘Dressed To Kill’ and ‘Disintegration Nation’ rank among the best of pogo-worthy punk tunes. Everything they play is delivered with the confidence and panache you’d expect of a headline band”.

Tali Jackson: 

biog: 

Tali Jackson is a unique talent, there’s a clarity in the narrative and diction of her songs; the emotions within are totally real, honest and relatable.

The Snakeoil Rattlers: 

Biog:  

The Snakeoil Rattlers have continued to work tirelessly to cement their place in the UK Southern Rock and Americana scene. The strong narrative of their songs often finds them compared to songwriting notaries including the Drive-by Truckers, Townes Van Zandt, and Steve Earle, but with a sound distinctly their own. The Outlaw Punk Country Radio Show described them as having "Smooth rural southern lyrics and native hymning"

The Mighty Heartache:

Biog:

Rock'n'roll  Americana, with the swagger and heart of the 70s, the spirit of the 60’s, a dollop of country and rockabilly, words to make you think - maybe even shed a tear, and a beat to get your feet a dancin’;  that's The Mighty Heartache. Think Elvis C meets Elvis P with the energy of the Clash, the raunch of The Stones, all mixed up in Nashville and dropped into the heart of the Finchley Delta.

Auger UK Tour 2025

ticket link

AUGER, fronted by Kyle Blaqk, are the hyper-melodic, genre-fluid, dark music act. They burst onto an unsuspecting scene in mid-2017 and since then have released 4 albums and performed in 70 cities spanning 9 countries. Establishing their sound through the fusion of rock and electronic styles with deep vocals and a sharp pop sense.

To date, Auger have released four albums: ‘The Awakening’ (2017), ‘From Now On I’ (2019), ‘Insurgence’ (2020), and ‘Nighthawks’ (2022). All four have entered the top 5 of the Deutsche Alternative Charts. DarkTunes Music Group (DE) released the first three albums (distributed by Soul Food Distribution), but since then, AUGER has released music via their label, The Big Chair.

Auger’s latest album is Nighthawks. The fourth album in their discography, and yet in many ways, their first. After three albums, a pallet of collaborations, covers and singles, Auger have carved and solidified their sound. This new album, inspired by American art, is the embodiment of that, their piece de resistance.

For the foreseeable future, Crawdaddy! will have to end promptly at 1am instead of 2am.

We will keep you posted.

The Muzztones: Great British indie music from the 1990s and the classic rock which influenced it. Finished off with hand-picked anthems from the 2000s. Put simply: some of the best songs ever written. "There’s covers bands. And then there’s The Muzztones.

Close your eyes, and you’ll swear that David Bowie, The Small Faces, The Happy Mondays, Squeeze and The Dandy Warhols have set aside their differences to bring the wild mercury sound to an unsuspecting pub backroom. Open them, and you’ll realise that this occasionally well-oiled, eight-legged groove machine, also possess a dedication to lifting the spirits to match Jack Daniels."
