Punk music has always been a powerful force, a rebellious expression of raw energy and unapologetic attitude. It’s a genre that has continuously evolved and diversified, bringing together different styles and perspectives. Tom’s Tap and Brewhouse is set to host an unforgettable night of punk music, featuring three remarkable bands that are bound to make an impact. Brace yourselves for an evening filled with fast-paced rhythms, thought-provoking lyrics, and an electric atmosphere as Eden Will Riot, The White Ribbons, and The Mad Badgers take the stage!
All profits from the evening are going to The Sophie Lancaster Foundation: a lasting legacy to a beautiful life cut short by violence. The charity works to promote tolerance and acceptance for others, and champions alternative people in our communities.
