Play Loud, Play Purple
Once Upon A Leeds, 1981. The March Violets strum their first riff and scrawl their first set list. Their impressive post-punk legacy stretches from 1980s BBC John Peel sessions, indie chart successes Radiant Boys EP, Grooving in Green, Snake Dance and Turn to the Sky (featured in the John Hughes movie, Some Kind of Wonderful), all the way to the 21st century reunion, headlining festivals across Europe & the USA and storming Record Store Day 2021 and 2022 with sell-out double albums Big Soul Kiss and Made Glorious.
Founder-members Rosie Garland (performer, poet and author) and Tom Ashton (guitarist, producer) are joined by Mat Thorpe (bassist and vocalist). The band has enjoyed rapturous receptions on UK / EU / USA tours, incl headline shows at legendary Wave Gotik Treffen (Germany), Levitation (Austin TX), A Murder of Crows (NYC), Southern Gothic (Athens GA), DarkMad (Madrid), Dark Malta, Deadinburgh & Tomorrow’s Ghosts Festival (Whitby Goth Weekend, UK).
Plus – in 2024, The March Violets released Crocodile Promises (Metropolis Records). Their first album for 10 years, featuring all-new material. Double albums Big Soul Kiss and Made Glorious (Jungle Records) were released for Record Store Day 2021 and 2022. And for Record Store Day 2026 Jungle Records released Natural History.

“Agonal Gasps” is a medical term which describes the heaving, spasmodic last breaths of a person dying which is a stark reality that Dusty Gannon has witnessed many times.
The Agonal Gasps is a post-punk band from Athens, Georgia that goes to the roots of what made frontman Dusty Gannon fall in love with goth rock so many years ago. After the end of his last band Vision Video, Gannon seeked to create a new act that was more visceral, raw and cut to the bone by bringing sounds from influences like Killing Joke, the Sound and Bauhaus.
Contrasted to Gannon’s often humorous and tongue-in-cheek personality “Goth Dad” on social media, the music explores themes of war, genocide, mortality and systemic abuse. The messages are political and controversial and give the listener a mirror to help understand the insanity of the modern world.

Obsidian is a Gothic/ Post-Punk band from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The band was originally formed in 2018 as a creative outlet for the various members to deal with their traumatic experiences and existential epiphanies. The band has evolved into the current four-piece version consisting of Missy Mortis (Guitars, Vocals, Primary songwriter), Kathy D (Synths and Keyboards), Ryan Rivas (Bass Guitars), and Danny Drums (Drums and Percussion). The group’s style has been described as “post-punk,” “goth,” and “death rock” and combines a fierce love of rock music with darker electronic and esoteric elements. Obsidian currently has 3 EP releases: 2018’s four-track EP “A Swamp,” which was followed by the 2019 EP “Living Dead,” and 2020’s “Vultures.” Finally released in 2024 was the band’s first full-length album, “19 Dead,” on Bat-Cave Productions – available on all major streaming platforms.
