KING PUNCH
These guys are a London-based Ska-punk outfit with a passion for live shows, fast-paced skanking and man hugs. King Punch hail from London and present a rag tag collection of all they hold dear in music; a DIY spirit, punk energy, brass filled hooks and dirty guitars, all served up with a smile.
This seven-piece band are on fire at the moment and amidst their busy summer gig lineup we are lucky to have them grace the stage at The Scoop for this year's event. With a reputation for a raucous live show you can expect ska, swing, punk and a party.

KING SALAMI and the CUMBERLAND THREE
This is London’s greatest and most sensational Rhythm’n’Blues-Punk band. And this is a band that truly represents London, being a mongrel mix of Caribbean, France, Japan and Spain. With a repertoire influenced by many of the great songs of the ’50s and ’60s made to sound fresh and new to modern ears, you won’t be able to help but move your feet when the Cumberland Three are blasting out of your speakers.
