THE CARAVANS - RARE LONDON SHOW FOR 2025!
So, some 40 years odd on the road, would seem like a lifetime for some, for us it seems like flash from a vintage camera at the back of a darkened room. From the early days in the smokey clubs in London and the tight basement venues in our home town of Southsea to the mainstream venues and festivals around the world could be considered a significant success for any band to achieve. With some 22 albums under the belt, a handful of Eps, numerous live videos and one or two line up changes you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s all getting a bit tired, we’ll not the case, with a new Album on the way and a few key dates in the diary The Caravans sound and perform as fresh as if they’d just rolled off the Northwood Records rota in the early 80s, maybe not another 40 years left in us but certainly a few more to go..Sonic Velocity coming soon, stay safe and keep the faith, and we’ll see you at the bar..!!
THE OUTER LIMITS - FIRST EXCLUSIVE RETURN GIG SINCE 1987!
The Outer Limits formed in 1982 by Martin “Johno” Johnson, Paul Gaskin and Rob Tyler.

They toured Italy and Germany before landing on the Klub Foot stage…. Starting off downstairs, earning their stripes like many others before them before graduating upstairs and working their way up the bill..
The band released the single The Chase to great reviews followed by the Edge of Time 12 inch ep as well as tracks on various Nervous records compilations.. They gigged regularly , often on the college circuit before deciding to call it a day in 1986.

Paul going on to work with Jack Rabbit Slim and Carlos and the Bandidos, Rob spent many years with Restless and then Darrel Higham and Johno writing and recording his own material..

Junk Season is the creative outlet of Milton Keynes-based artist Harrison Kendall, a fresh voice connecting with fans in the modern pop punk/emo scene. What began in 2020 as a lo-fi project under the name Fordë has since evolved into a bold, emotive sound that blends raw punk energy with modern production. Harrison’s early releases garnered attention from BBC Introducing, featuring tracks from his mixtape and two EPs. Over time, as his artistry deepened and his sound matured, the name Junk Season was born to reflect a fresh direction.
“Blink, early Paramore, THIS is what reminds me of that...”
- Kerrie Cosh, BBC Introducing (Three Counties & Northants)
At its core, Junk Season is pop punk redefined for a new era, exploring themes like self-doubt, anxiety, and the chaos of life. Drawing inspiration from personal struggles and growing up on bands like Blink-182, Harrison channels both nostalgia and innovation into music that resonates deeply. His goal is simple: to write songs that people can lean on, just like he did with his favourite bands —whether you’re seeking understanding or a momentary escape.
The name Junk Season encapsulates the creative process itself: sifting through the "junk" of the mind to craft something meaningful. For Harrison, these songs arrive in waves, capturing raw emotion that listeners can hold onto as their own.
“There’s a lot of really great instinctual stuff happening…”
- Casey Cavaliere, The Wonder Years (Blood, Sweat & Beers Podcast)
While Harrison writes the music, his live performances feature longtime friends Dan Streeter and Hayden Peerless, bringing the energy and emotion of the songs to life on stage.
Following the release of his debut album, Rooms We Crawl In, Junk Season wraps up Season 1 and steps boldly into Season 2. With a growing fanbase and music that continues to push boundaries, this is just the beginning.

London Prog Gigs are delighted to present an evening of instrumental progressive post-rock, featuring three excellent young bands MAEBE, CABIRIA and KANOO.
Hailing from Bristol, progressive post-rock band MAEBE have made waves across the UK instrumental scene with their second album, Rebirth. Relive. Repeat., released in July 2023 and recently showcased to a wider audience at ArcTanGent Festival in August 2024.
What started as the solo project of guitarist Michael Astley-Brown developed into a full live band, with a devastating triple-guitar attack, gnarly bass grooves and bombastic drums.
This live lineup has gigged alongside some of modern music’s most exciting alternative acts, including Alpha Male Tea Party, Poly-Math, Orchards, Standards, L.O.E., FORT, a-tota-so, Bicurious, Mountain Caller and many more. The band deliver a highly dynamic, heavily layered approach to instrumental rock that spans prog, math and post-rock and even shred, all delivered with a post-hardcore energy.
CABIRIA are an instrumental trio based in London, making music that straddles the boundaries of post metal, prog and fusion. Featuring ultra-tight performances and inventive uses of effects, there’s a sense of honesty at its core which lends an introspective backdrop to all of their compositions. Their recently released album "How Long's The Drive?" (Drongo Records, 2024) was met with acclaim and supported by a number of successful and well attended launch shows throughout London and the South-East.
“Blending elements of post-rock and prog-metal with brooding atmospherics and fragile ambiance; Russian Circles meets Rush at their noisiest amidst cinematic, post-rock soundscapes” – PROG Magazine
KANOO is an indie-prog trio known for crafting intricate rhythms, lush melodies, and experimental textures. Drawing inspiration from artists like Tortoise, Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, and Bill Frisell, their music blends avant-garde exploration with a carefree rock spirit.
"Sandy (guitar) met Ed (drums) at a local football league and asked if he wanted to start a band. At least, he thought he did. In fact, Ed has never played football in his life, and Sandy was actually talking to someone else. Despite the initial mistaken identity, they persevered with the band anyway, with Jon joining them on bass. Their most recent EP is named Iterate."
THE FIDDLER’S ELBOW in Camden is a largely standing venue, but some seating is available on a first-come/first served basis. The event aims to be responsive to needs of attendees with disability issues; If you require a reserved seat, please let the organisers know.
PLEASE SUPPORT THE VENUE by buying drinks from the bar.
