Knuckle bring swaggering licks, lush fuzz and big beats that groove and dance around alt rock, blues and indie with a distinct Yorkshire twang.
The Huddersfield three-piece hit Teesside for the first time as part of their autumn tour, peddling what they call "deluxe garage blues". They craft top-notch chunky tunes about bullying bosses, werewolf girlfriends and self-criticism ('Baby I'm a Dickhead').
Tongue-in-cheek lyrics mix with honest expression delivered soulfully through frontman Jonny Firth's bold and melodic vocals. It all comes together to form engaging music that has a habit of getting stuck in your head.

Support comes from three of the most exciting new Teesside acts to emerge this year:
The Shakin' Nightmares - A new rock 'n' roll force erupting with drama and energy - dark and catchy punk-driven tunes with a beefy rhythm section and explosive live performance.
Listen to 'Unbelievin': https://open.spotify.com/
Krome - Perfectly crafted hard rock with cool 'n' hazy blues-tinged riffs and a frighteningly tight live set, another fresh force emerging this year in Redcar.
Listen to the 'Hot Contents' EP: https://open.spotify.com/
DRIPP - Fresh 'n' fuzzy alternative rock spinning doomy riffs into pop hits with twists and turns as they dip in and out of genres.
