Carsick
BBC Introducing StageFriday12:00 pm
Last year CARSICK make a proper name for themselves, dropped their debut EP ‘Drunk Hymns’, and solidified their growing reputation as one of the UK’s most energetic, unpredictable, and all-around wild live acts. Their music – a blend of raw punk, 90s-inspired indie-rock, UK hip-hop, and irresistible electronic elements – is all about living for the weekend; about the desperate chaos of small-town nightlife and about forgetting what happened last night. Support from the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6 Music, John Kennedy on Radio X, and Tom Robinson has ensured that their “anthems for the pissed-up and pissed-off” are reaching an ever-expanding cult following. If the band are to be believed, this is the downfall of British music at terminal velocity. Get on board while you can.
