The Dazed Minded are a 4-piece female-led garage rock band from Reading, bringing the 2000's indie sleaze vibe back into the 2020's. Influenced by indie classics such as Miles Kane, Kings of Leon and Razorlight.
We've been wanting to get them into the ZZF line-up for ages, a catchy mix of musical styles from melodic indie rock to a heavier guitar-led britpop vibe. Excellent harmonies and great hooks, we can't wait to welcome The Dazed Minded to Zig Zag Fest!
Hampshire’s Hottest Brass Party band!
Heralding from the pits of deepest ‘shire come 9 miscreants, hellbent on spreading their splurging auditory concoctions up, and in, your soiree. Be warned, if you’re in any way party-averse, turn on your heels and flee the scene, for where there is Pi there is Party!
BrideStone are an energetic 3-6 piece Irish Traditional music band based in Hampshire.
Saturday 4th October, 12noon - 6pm - Village Hall
The afternoon session in the village hall is more laid back with a selection more "acoustic" acts performing from lunchtime onwards.
1.40pm : Sam Meller
Grunge folk artist Sam Meller captivates listeners with his scratchy yet melodic vocals and his straight from the heart acoustic guitar sound. He’s been described as “Kurt Cobain meets Elliot smith with a bit of Damien rice in there somewhere”, so if you’re a fan of any of those artists then you’ll love Sam Meller https://www.instagram.com/sam_meller_music_official/
Pete is an amazing one man band! If we're lucky he'll be doing his pop-master challenge again. He'll play a tune and the audience needs to guess the artist, title track and year of release. Prizes for the highest score!
4.10pm : Fate of the Magpie
From a dark swirl of poetry, guitars and whistles came the music & lyrics that are Fate of the Magpie. Facebook - Fate of the Magpie
5.00pm : Seasick Waves
The return of our favourite acoustic grunge band after their debut last year (with a different name!).
6.00pm : The Lurxx
Formed in the vibrant glam punk scene of mid-90s Hollywood, The Lürxx are a unique glam punk band known for their passionate advocacy for nature and animal rights, creating a distinctive sound that blends high-energy punk and rock with acoustic guitar, recorders (!) and environmental activism. Their sound draws major influences from late 60s and early 70s rock music as well as from late 70s punk rock, from a time when music was at the forefront of societal change. Their music is a powerful call to action, celebrating the beauty of nature and urging listeners to join the fight against speciesism and environmental destruction. Their songs often feature themes of resilience, survival, and the interconnectedness of all beings.
