Gappy Tooth Industries are 17! Join them as they celebrate 17 years of monthly eclectic (primarily) musical events in Oxford, 17 years of fascinating line-ups, great post-gig discussions, and ill-advised last beers, 17 years of not quite going bankrupt.
22.10 Born Ideal
21.20 Piqued Jacks
20.30 Factory Lights
Expect neon-bright and needle-sharp tunes from the Faringdon-based alt rock trio, Born Ideal. Epic but controlled, imposing but friendly, these are tunes built for the biggest stages and mass singalongs.
All the way from Florence, Piqued Jacks are a band of brothers who make chunky, funky pop music for those dedicated to toe-tapping, head-shaking and off-copping in a pop party environment. The recipients of myriad awards in their native Italy, they are a must for fans of Biffy Clyro, Incubus, The Killers, The Mars Volta, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and good times in general.
Factory Lights, a six-piece rock band that formed in 2015, are influenced by themes and stories of ordinary working people living worthwhile and meaningful lives, against the backdrop of political and economic upheaval. The lead singer and songwriter Ant Kelly – main man from Oxford’s soul rock favourites The Shapes - tells a personal and affectionate tale of the many influences on his life, his Irish background, growing up in working-class Cowley, his disillusionment with party politics and the joys of family life.
