SHOOTING GALLERIES // BLANK CHEQUE // HERODIAS // THE Q

Birthed in the midst of a global pandemic, Shooting Galleries harnessed the collective angst, anger and attitude reflected in the world to give rise to a fresh take on Alternative Rock. With sharp riffs, heavy driving drums and dominant vocals they deliver an electrifying performance that is hard matched in the current music climate. The band have just finished their debut album under the legendary production of Chris Hope, set to be released later in 2026. Take Aim. SGx

Blank Cheque are a four piece indie band comprising of members from all four sides of London. The band features experienced musicians, all bringing their own unique styles and influences together to create a fresh and dynamic sound. Layered vocals, catchy riffs and crunchy tones combine to create a classic sound that tells its own story.

Rooted at the crossroads of Grunge, Punk and Stoner rock, Herodias are a supersonic force blending raw emotion, uplifting melodies and electrifying riffs into a sound unlike any other. Composed of 4 west London based musicians, they have embarked on encapsulating and embracing their own unique style of music and live performances whilst delivering rock n’ roll to the energetic youth of today and tomorrow. Having completed their first year as a band, they have managed to gain significant attention from their unforgettable rock anthem “addictions” and are gearing up for 2026, with an exciting new album and many more performances on the horizon.

The Q have been on the UK music scene since the release of their debut EP, ISSUES, in 2008 on Time For Action Records which was produced by Vic Coppersmith-Heaven, (renowned producer of The Jam, The Vapours etc). This was followed up with their first album Sonically Sound in 2011 which sold out of it’s initial run in weeks. Since then they’ve been regular guest artists on tours of bands including “From The Jam”, “The Beat”, “Secret Affair”, “The Circles”, “Bad Manners”, “Big Country” and more as well as performing regularly across the UK, Germany and the occasional trip across the water to the USA Working with Welsh producer Greg Haver, (Manic Street Preachers, Catatonia, Bullet For My Valentine), The Q produced a further EP and album, (Chemical Overload and The Nations Recreation), before the COVID “Blip”. The Q received rave reviews from the music press both in the UK and Europe including: – Vive Le Rock Magazine, UK – “Slick, sharp and encapsulates the Modern World, The Q are quite capable of keeping things fresh in 21st century Britain with hugely catchy tunes” Muzikknyheter Magazine, Norway – “A thoroughly superb album full of highlights” Plastic Bomb Magazine, Germany – “Cool album with really sophisticated songs. It’s been a long time since I’ve had such exciting music on the turntable.” In 2023 The Q returned to the studio to record their third album, “THREE”, which was released independently at the end of the year across all digital outlets. In writing THREE the band drew from their musical journey and the emotions surrounding this to produce songs that tell a personal story as well as including tracks inspired by social issues that they feel passionate about – something that’s influenced their writing since the band started.
