An Alternative Gathering presents a night of debauched rock'n'roll featuring:

Duchess
Are you ready to join the court of the Duchess?
Duchess are a sexy, theatrical and loud young rock band born in Camden Town, London, in December 2013 to bring back the Classic Rock and to delight you all with unforgettable Live shows in this world full of s**t.
"Duchess brought back the Aristocracy to Rock n' Roll, frontman Sir Freddie Vintage pulled out all the stops to entertain the crowd as the band backed him up with some hefty groovy infused rock".
"it’s classic rock through and through, it’s musical theatre with some kick-ass guitar solos, and despite the cut of their outfits, a lot of balls!!!"

Kindred Shins
"Don't let them fool you with their tales of being tramps from the street with no direction, Kindred Shins say that they are some mean sons of bitches and they are, they mean business. Their take on how the blues should sound is unequalled, a potent brew of riffs, volcanic vocals and a pure joy in what they play, they're a real blues inferno, just a great live band, like a secret that you have to share"
Classing themselves as 'Stoner Blues Rock' their sound is quite difficult to pigeon-hole. It's mellow, but at the same time pumped full of energy. A combination of full throttle rock and swinging blues with the odd bit of synth thrown in for good measure.
They seize the opportunity to become musical zealots at the end of the day (whenever that may be). Their musical roots find them lovers of Zeppelin, Nirvana and The Back Keys.

HammerJack
HammerJacK formed in April 2013 with the sole ambition of creating an uncompromising, hard hitting heavy rock band. No one could have dream't that within its first year the band would be enjoying instant success, igniting stages up and down the country with their high energy stage antics, with 2013 culminating in being invited to join Dutch power metalers Lord Volture on a 10 date European tour. They celebrated the end of their first year in the studio recording a 5 track self titled debut EP which has been well recieved by music critics and is leaving listeners hungry for more. By way of a 'Thank You' to their supporters they released it for free download from their website.
"If you marry Slash with AC/DC, what`ya get? HammerJack from the UK! Ripe`n`sharp but blues`y rock`n`roll with excellent solos, vocals and stage performance. Everything is developed to its peak yet beautifully balanced. As a fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd & Richie Kotzen I proclaim HammerJacK the best band formed in the last few years. Complete delight!".

Signal Flare
Blending the best of funk, punk and hard rock and with influences including Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Rage Against The Machine, Signal Flare are a four piece band from North London that create music for people to jump to.
Playing energetic live shows and recording anthemic tracks, Signal Flare look to use 2015 as a launchpad to playing up and down the country, at every bar, pub, club and kennel in sight.

This is a show you DON'T want to miss!
