KING KURT
Unless you really don’t know or have been sleeping under a rock for decades King Kurt are a psychobilly rock band from the UK. They formed in 1981 and although psychobilly pranksters King Kurt are best remembered for "Destination Zululand," the rambunctious smash with which they stormed the U.K. chart in 1984, to recall them purely as one-hit wonders is to decry years of achievement -- But even that only begins to tell the band's story, for it wasn't on cold, impersonal wax that King Kurt were at their blistering, mystifying best. It was in concert, where gigs became tribal gatherings, songs became rockabilly psycho chants, and haircuts were -- well, let's just say they were mighty peculiar, and leave it at that.
King Kurt's reputation has never flagged and, if anything, has grown even wilder over the years – gonna be fun in Guildford. . . .
Wanna know more this is a pretty good catch up of the band www.allmusic.com/.../king-kurt.../biography

PUSSYCAT AND THE DIRTY JOHNSONS
Undercover regulars back at one of our gigs and rightly so.
The formidable Pussycat is renowned for prowling the audience while the adrenaline fuelled Dirty Johnson boys pound out their infectious brand of dirty rock and roll. Like cats they are hard to pin down and have been described as one of the most incendiary live bands in the UK.
Pussycat and the Dirty Johnsons bring high impact raw power to the stage, and have managed to capture that unadulterated trash punk assault to the senses on their first three albums; exercise your demons, dirty rock’n’roll and ain’t no pussy - all of which received glowing reviews.

KNOCKSVILLE
New to an Undercover stage and persistent they are in their belief in their art (they nagged Mick a lot), that Mick eventually gave in and listened to some of their tracks asked about and booked them for this gig without any hesitation.

High Octane Blues Infested Punkabilly! From the South Coast.
Described as a “50’s style “punks” Knocksville, with a heavy train-like sound featuring great slap bass, banging drums, as well as a punk/rockabilly guitar player. Although fairly simplistic, as many three-piece acts are, they also had a direct powerful sound that gave their show an undeniably rocking edge”.

THE GO GO CULT
“From a heavily armed farmhouse in the swamplands of Reading crawl the Go Go Cult hell bent on spreading their unique brand of sleazy fifties psycho-delic voodoo surf punk sci-fi gospel.
