Heavyball:
Nottingham born, London based, Heavyball are a self titled "new tone" band. Heavyball is fronted by Bigface on guitar and vocals with his brother Habs on drums and best mate Johnny Iball on bass. 2014 saw them joined by Tom "Stone Cold" Frost on lead guitar.

After supporting both the Kaiser Chiefs and The Selecter in 2014 the band turned their attention to Europe and have headlined their own shows in Nuremberg, Prague, Netherlands, Paris, Switzerland and Vienna.

Heavyball’s sound is a modern interpretation of two tone, mod, rock and ska. Influences include Viz, Shane Meadows and the story writing traditions of country and western; they call it "new tone". Disguised beneath uplifting beats, driving percussion and distinctive melodies are topics such as Operation Yewtree, PTSD, war in Afghanistan and suicide in Skegness.

Heavyball’s recordings have been championed by DJs; BBC6 Music’s Chris Hawkins and Tom Robinson, BBC London’s Gary Crowley, BBC Ulster’s late Gerry Anderson, Absolute Radio’s Frank Skinner, BBC Introducing’s Dean Jackson and a personal endorsement from Jimmy Somerville for their unique interpretation of his classic 80s hit Smalltown Boy.

Wise Monkey:
Wise Monkey was founded in 2014 in Vienna by guitarist Robert „Flappo“ Eder, percussionist Gerald Penz and singer Mario Cerneti as a self-described live band, mixing r’n’b, beat, soul, mod and ska.

Their catchy songs like Georgie McCann conquered the audience immediately and so it happened, that Franz „Znarf“ Huber joined the band in 2015 as one of Austrias best hammond organists. In 2016 Mario Cerneti left the band and Wise Monkey used this as a relaunch. Gifted Tom Hansmann became the new singer, Znarf switched to the bass and left the organ to Julia Bachmair, later to Albert Kastl. Since January 2017 brilliant Stefan Kawinek is doing a great job on the drums. The crowning element in the band is Birgit Sekanina as female backing vocal.

Wise Monkey released their first 7inch in December 2016. Reguarding the bands musical repertoire the song "Wise Monkey" is an exception for enlarging the r’n’b sound with funky elements. The text itselfs as the bands name is an allusion to Londons regiolect Cockney. Brand new songs like "Monkey Stomp" are really "nutty sounds"!

When mates meet, it will be great fun - and that is what everyone can expect from this brilliant evening! Be there or be square - don´t miss it!
