😈 DITCH THE DEMON
Bringing together classic heavy rock, power metal, progressive rock, and psychedelic influences, Ditch the Demon serve up towering vocals, twin guitar harmonies, and riffs big enough to shake the foundations of The Nest.
Loud, melodic, powerful, and absolutely made for the live stage.

🔥 KAROBELA
Alternative rock… with attitude.
Mixing grunge, indie, powerful riffs, soaring melodies, and irresistible grooves, Karobela create a sound that’s impossible to pin down—and impossible to ignore.
Described by BBC Introducing as “absolutely fearsome,” they’re quickly becoming one of the most exciting live bands around.
Expect huge hooks, massive energy, and a performance that’ll leave you wanting more.
