This is a HARD question to answer. As a band we have such varying taste and influences it’d probably never be a feasible bill! A bill for people that just love good music! (this is actually going to be arranged, right?!). We’re really fortunate to have played a lot of festivals and shows over the years with a load of the best acts around. I think there are loads of obvious choices for anyone with a rock sensibility – Led Zeppelin, Queen, The Rolling Stones etc, but I’ll go a bit out the box here…

Black Sabbath – a stalwart of music. Huge band that shaped metal as we know it today.
Faith No More – anthemic songs led by a man with an iconic voice.
Steely Dan – just so I can see Mikey (Demus) NAIL the air guitar solo from Rikki Don’t Lose That Number EVERY night.
The Specials – are a huge influence on us as a band.
Helmet – same as above. Getting hit round the face with a Helmet riff is never a bad thing.

That being said, our next UK tour in November is a pretty mighty lineup! Skindred, Crossfaith, Hed PE, Yashin. Boom!
