SLAG formed in Brighton, late 2023. SLAG's guitar riffs are actually kind of crazy when you think about it. SLAG wear some really cool outfits on stage sometimes. SLAGs singer could be a man if you closed your eyes and listened closely, but she isn't. SLAG released the song Ripped in September and everyone seems to really like it. SLAG released a work out video on YouTube. SLAG's live shows are awesome - lots of people have said so. SLAG have plans.

Guy Ferris, Oscar Post, Matt Saunders and Ollie Thomas began Lemonsuckr. The band was incubated from the inside of “The Container” a metal, 8ft x 20ft, freight shipping unit you’d expect to see floating across the Atlantic on a cargo boat (this one however was safely marooned on a farm in the middle of nowhere).
They themselves forged The Container into their den, studio and headquarters; a place they could conceptualise, rehearse and write music together. What followed were countless hours locked away inside the tin can obsessing over the project, doors slammed shut.
In late 2024 their objective was complete, the shipping container abandoned, and they collectively moved to Brighton to finally reveal what they had spent so long toiling over.
It was time put everything together on the stage
Lemonsuckr live performances are nothing short of chaos with a hot-bloodedness and confidence afforded only to a group of people who have spent so long understanding what they want an audience to feel, from the immediate pounding and unrelenting beat to the last screech of feedback.
