Sun 4th May 20:00 Spartacus Live - Minus IQ / Cojack / The Skinnies / Luke Banot

Minus IQ – Pop meets electro, with added dose of melodic rock. The gentle vocals juxtapose perfectly with the hugely dynamic music, sweeping from dreamily quiet to full throttle energised rock. Themes of introspection and social observation command songs, and so they too command the stage with devastating effect. Debut album ‘Home Cinema’ is out now.

Cojack – Bath boys with a fast growing fan base. Being hailed as ‘the band to look out for’ by many, they’re hard hitting indie-rock is reminiscent of British 80s guitar bands but with a fresh modern take. Debut album in the works. 

The Skinnies – An emo-pop-punk band with plenty of angst and attitude.

Luke Banot – One of the smoothest voices around, Banot combines the best aspects of soul, R&B and gospel to produce a sound destined to send everyone in the room into another world.
