LOUD SAVAGE TRASH FROM NAPLES IN ITALY!
The Devils formed in the deep south of Italy in 2015, recorded 1st and 2nd full lenght with Jim Diamond (the Dirtbombs, White Stripes etc), hooked up with Voodoo Rhythm Records and toured all over Europe and Canada (about 300 shows!).
Gianni Puzzadidio rapes the guitar and Erica Volgare hits the drums and screams in the microphone, this is a huge wall of guitar fuzz and noise and vocals as minimalistic and primitive, thats pure evil and lots of fun.
They are dressed up as preacher and nun and destroy every stage that they can play on, they are hot and wild very loud and very very sexy!
They have been on tour with: THE SONICS, BOSS HOG, THE MONSTERS.
Played many Festivals: AZKENA ROCK FESTIVAL, HELLDORADO, SLEAZEFEST, COSMIC TRIP FESTIVAL, MUNSTER RAVING LOONEY PARTY, BEACHES BREW, FESTIVAL BEAT, etc.

Twisted Illusion embark on their 2nd UK headline tour to promote their impending trilogy ‘Excite the Light’.
Influenced by the prog giants of the 70’s but with a notably unique sound of their own Twisted Illusion are making a name for themselves as the must see/hear prog band in the UK right now.
The band released their debut “Temple of Artifice” in 2016 and have since gigged all over the UK to promote it’s release.
The band played a sold out hometown show in 2016 to celebrate the success of TOA.
With a full length album and a double album released just 12 months apart the 4 piece prog outfit has gained a notable fan base and has even performed for the first time at Bloodstock festival in 2017.
Their recent double album “Insight to the Mind of a Million Faces has gained national attention, with reviews appearing in both Classic Rock and Prog Magazine.
Love Queen? Rush? Dio? How about if you crammed them all together into one big, fleshy prog-rock meatloaf, seasoned with a lack of restraint that makes Devin Townsend look like John Denver? If that sounds palatable, then Twisted Illusion could be right up your street. (Classic Rock)

PAWSA is a name that has consistently emerged from the burgeoning house and techno scene in recent times. The London based producer kick started his remarkable rise with a bonafide EP on the renowned Lost Records in 2014. To say we are excited to welcome him to Leicester is an understatement.
Next up we have Dutch duo ANOTR!!! Even by the standards of the Netherlands’ rich and plentiful dance music production line, the rapid rise of ANOTR is a story that could run and run. Still in their early twenties, Amsterdam duo Jesse van der Heijden and Oguzhan Guney are all about “energetic, hard hitting, straight to the point techykind-of house” – just the sort of advertisement that the Amsterdam Dance Event and Ibiza’s Amnesia have lapped up, and sure to trigger a busy global schedule.
Last but not least we have OTM favourites PAX! If you have came to our shows you have probably seen PAX and their succesful journey to the top! “If you don’t know PAX, you better get to know” – Solardo. Exploding onto the scene in 2015, House and Techno duo Aaron Taylor and Charles Robinson have taken the dance music scene by storm.
