The band features original Monochrome Set members Bid (guitar/vocals) and Andy Warren (bass) with Athen Ayren on keyboards and Stephen Gilchrist on drums. \nThe Monochrome Set formed in 1978\, and were heavily influential in the post-punk scene that evolved after the initial scorched earth of punk.

SUMMARY:John McKay's Reactor (ft Jola) + Miki Berenyi Trio - Hebden Bridge
DESCRIPTION:Many of the most influential guitarists of the past four decades credite John McKay as a major influence\, including Geordie from Killing Joke\, Jim Reid of The Jesus And Mary Chain\, U2’s The Edge\, Thurston Moore\, Johnny Marr\, and even the two guitarists who followed him into The Banshees – The Cure’s Robert Smith and Magazine’s John McGeoch. \nSixes And Sevens is a historic lost album bearing fair claim as the lost treasure of the post-punk era\, the album collects eleven compelling studio tracks. A prelude to the great surprise of John’s return to live performance\, with a fresh new band and a number of live shows in the offing. John McKay’s Reactor will feature the lad ‘imself on guitar\, Jen Brown (The Priscillas) on vocals\, Jola (Adam Ant\, The Priscillas) on drums\, and Billy King on bass. \nMiki Berenyi Trio are Miki Berenyi on vocals/guitar (Lush)\, Kevin ‘Moose’ McKillop on guitar (Moose) and Oliver Cherer (Gilroy Mere\, Aircooled). The three musicians first worked together during Piroshka‘s 2021 tour – Miki and Moose being founder members\, Ollie joining to play bass. \nApril 2025 sees the release of their album Tripla\, preceded by the tracks Vertigo\, 8th Deadly Sin\, Big I Am and Kinch\, all released via Bella Union.

SUMMARY:Adam Ant + Undertones + Altered Images - Rebellion\, Blackpool
DESCRIPTION:Rebellion Run Up – Adam Ant plus special guests \nHeadlining the bill is ADAM ANT\, the legendary English singer\, songwriter and frontman whose career began in the late ’70s with Adam and the Ants and went on to deliver some of the biggest new wave anthems of the 1980s. With 10 UK Top Ten hits under his belt\, including Kings Of the Wild Frontier\, Stand and Deliver\, Prince Charming and Goody Two Shoes\, Ant promises a set packed with classic hits and a harder-edged take on his early material that fans won’t want to miss. \nADAM ANT’s ONLY scheduled show for 2026 (at time of writing…) \nJoining him are The Undertones\, the iconic Northern Irish punk-pop outfit formed in Derry in the mid-1970s whose energy and timeless songs like Teenage Kicks helped define a generation. Known for their tight hooks\, pop-driven punk and endless live spirit\, they’re sure to bring full-on excitement to the stage. \nAlso on the bill are Altered Images\, the Scottish new wave/post-punk band fronted by Clare Grogan who scored a string of UK Top-40 hits in the early ’80s with songs like Happy Birthday and I Could Be Happy. Their blend of youthful pop flair and post-punk edge keeps the party going strong. \nA perfect night to kick off the week of celebrations. 30 years of Rebellion festivals and 50 years of Punk.
