HOT VOX Presents: BEST IN CLASS

Kabüki is a unique, bilingual band from London that blends Hard Rock and Emo Rock music with Japanese theatre visuals, finished off with a touch of pink.

Playing high energy music that takes you on a journey through your emotions as the story unfolds, The Kabüki Show will make you explore the deepest, darkest parts of your soul.

Second Pagoda are an indie-rock outfit weaving moody, evocative lyrics through an eclectic mesh of influences. Drawing inspiration from the shimmering textures of Bombay Bicycle Club, the layered warmth of Grizzly Bear, and the raw urgency of Fontaines D.C., their sound also carries unexpected flashes of The Mars Volta’s intensity, A Perfect Circle’s brooding precision, and Tame Impala’s dreamy psych haze.

Loopy, hypnotic guitar riffs dance over quirky, off-kilter drum patterns, anchored by a bassline that’s equal parts groove and grit. The result is a sonic space where melancholy meets momentum, and every track feels like a late-night drive through unfamiliar streets.

Cardiff-based King Cerulean are the indie pop-funk dynamo tht bring a blend of infectious grooves and high-octane energy to every stage they command. They have just come off their incredible UK tour. They also just played the River Stage at the Isle of Wight Festival – packing it out and playing to thousands. King Cerulean delivers an eclectic genre-defying sound. So dance to the rhythm, and experience the uplifting journey with King Cerulean – where every note is an invitation to break free from the ordinary.
