Re-educate yourselves this summer with the best of York’s local talent at The Duchess. Off the back of their slot at Pickering’s Culture Shock festival Alive by Fire make their first appearance on the Duchess stage. Squealing rock riffs cut up by heart tugging vocals and old-school emo values. Surprise…Fire are a party attitude five piece that do heartfelt rock with a big sense of fun. Joyful sections of pop-influenced twiddling wrapped around a big chorus. Inspired equally by the thumping power chords of Battles and sensitive noodlings of American Football Lost From Atlas are four lads from York making very clever-rock music. And what better way to kick off a night of rock with a cheeky look at the entire industry courtesy of beats ‘n’s strings duo New Youth.
