Splendid has been a well-known player in Europe for years. Their live shows are an experience where the sparks fly! Frontman Patrick Schmitz whips up the crowd until the roof is flying off. With Sicco van Grieken (guitar), Bart Kerckhoff (bass), Jens Kerkhoff (percussion) and Sven van Wijk (drums) as a rock-solid rhythm section, there is a foundation of reinforced concrete. When the two horn players Jort and Bart Goderie, together with Donnie Kamp (keys), bring the melody to life, there is no escaping…. Tie your laces, tape your flip-flops to your feet, those who don’t dance are finished!

PleasureInc. is the genre-fluid musical brainchild of brothers Jesse and Louis Baker. The Norwich based duo emerged in late 2021, creating music and visual content reflecting their love for hip hop, britpop, psych and cinema. Through aliases Kenny Pleasures and Jonny Silver, the brothers project a playful perspective in their music, pulling sounds and attitudes from the likes of Damon Albarn, Beastie Boys, Tyler, The Creator and Tame Impala. Whether presenting this eclectic mix through considered, cinematic music videos, or as a raucous four-piece live band; there is an undefinable quality to PleasureInc that demands intrigue.
