7pm – OPEN MIC –

7.30pm – CHESCO

Chesco is predominantly a theatre writer and performer; he learnt the sweat nectar of sound on a classical guitar and has been a cunning fret board adventurer ever since. Influenced by old timely blues and the birth of cool jazz has giving birth to some funked up originals and a mix of folk and old rock covers. Let’s do some sound!

8.00pm – APPETITE FOR DISTRUCTION

Appetite for Distruction are a band of 3 guys Hushern on bass/vocals , Codey on drums Prithesh on lead/vocals . We play different types of rock and so because it’s our first time at the MITH we will surprise you with the choice of songs we will have scheduled.

9.00pm – CALICO

Calico have a mixture of influences from funk to blues and indie to alt-rock, even a bit of grunge, but we are definitely rooted in rock. We plan to cover all these genres in our set with covers from: The Black Keys, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Biffy Clyro, Cage the Elephant and Incubus. We will also be doing about 3 of our own originals, which have a mixture of sounds from fuzzy soft rock, to blues and grunge with a touch of funk. Our band name is Calico. We basically just all got together, jammed and decided to create some tasty new sounds.
