The legacy of WITCH continues and once again they return to the shores of Brighton to cause havoc. It's unlikely you'll ever be able to see this band in such an up close and personal space again!
We Intend To Cause Havoc were the biggest rock band in Zambia in the 1970s and spearheaded a new genre dubbed Zamrock, fusing influences that ranged from the Rolling Stones to Black Sabbath and James Brown and mixing them with traditional African rhythms and bush village songs.

At the peak of their popularity, the band often needed police to keep fans at bay while their lead singer Jagari – whose name is an Africanisation of Mick Jagger’s – riled up crowds by stage diving from balconies and dancing manically as the WITCH’s blend of psychedelic rock and African rhythms permeated the surrounding atmosphere.

Jagari is the charismatic sole surviving original member of the band. As Zambia’s economy stagnated and the country buckled under the AIDS crisis, WITCH fell apart. Jagari retreated to a life of quasi-anonymity as a university music professor before being wrongfully arrested during Zambia’s toughest hour. Now a man in his 60s, he spends his time mining gemstones hoping to strike it rich, until very recently the band being just a nostalgic memory of his youth.

"After establishing a following in Zambia as well as in Tanzania, Malawi, Zimbabwe, and Botswana in the 1970s, the band slowly dissolved in the Eighties and eventually stopped playing altogether. Chiseling for amethysts in a dirt pit in Zambia, co-founder Emmanuel “Jagari” Chanda, now 70, thought his days of performing were over." - Rolling Stone

Aww bless, would ya look at that... STAY SICK is sweet sixteen! 😇🤮
And to celebrate the fact we're throwing a good old fashioned garagetrashsurfpunkrocknroll knees up down the Hope tonight!

We've got London's finest, EEL MEN, headlining!!
"Eel Men formed in 2021, faced with the explosion of the world, they have made use of the adversity. Reflecting the instability of the present and the microcosm of North London, prioritising angular guitars, straight rhythms and fanatical storytelling." 🎸🐍

Annnd... news just in, yep, that's right, we've also managed to acquire local nuclear surf legends, the strategic three-piece instrumental detachment that is THE ATOM JACKS!! ☢️
So come help us celebrate this moment of our trash-teen lives and join us for kicks, tricks and... er ... sicks!?? 🥳🤢🎉
Oh and cake, there will be cake! 🎂

£free to one and all but we advise getting down early as it's likely to be tres busy. We hope! 😘💋

Spread the word, thunderbirds 🦅
