PUNK TRIB: Sex Pistols Exposé/ Lizzie and the Banshees/ The Clashed/ Those... Damned Ruts! - LEEDS

PUNK TRIB is a mini festival spanning 8 hours with a host of tribute bands playing music from four original groups at The 100 Club Punk Festival, 1976.

On this 50th Anniversary weekend after Punk Rock made a mark on London at the festival that brought together the best of the new upcoming Punk bands, we celebrate with tributes to four of those groups, Sex Pistols, The Clash, the Damned and future icons to cross multiple genres, Siouxsie And The Banshees who were performing their very first live Show.

Kicking off with DJ Mutant Movement at 5pm, you'll hear 3 hours of Punk classics before, between and after the bands until 1am. The line up that follows have racked up over 20 gigs for Mutant Movement between them, you can be sure this event has the right bands for the night.

Undoubtedly the Best Pistols show by far, no need to go see any other tribute as these sold out Brudenell last year so you know we're on our way to selling out before getting into the others! They performed 25 songs for the Leeds crowd and we'll do our best to persuade them to do the same, maybe even a sneaky PiL cover!

Lizzie and the Banshees

Their fourth appearance for Mutant Movement, they are certainly the fans' choice after squeezing them in like sardines at their last Leeds show. Covering every era of the Banshees but going deep into the Punk years, this is going to be one set not to miss!

The Clashed

With their own Strummer and Jones, these guys are the only tribute band that matters when it comes to The Clash, vocal styles so close to both original singers and musicians that recreate every song with such accuracy. This will be the band's 6th gig for Mutant Movement, the first being 8 years ago way back in 2018 when they blew the crowd away at The Wardrobe.

Those... Damned Ruts!

On this, their debut gig for Mutant Movement, they open the show covering the back catalogue of both The Damned and The Ruts, concentrating on the first two albums for each band. They're on stage at 5:30pm so don't be late.

We aim to open doors at 5pm but if crowds are gathering around 4:30pm, if everything is all set, we will start to filter the crowd in so we can have it almost full by the time the first band come on!
