Pet Needs x Keep Flying x So Good

Pet Needs bring their UK tour to The Fleece on Wednesday 14 October, with Keep Flying and So Good on the bill. It's a triple bill of punk rock on a mid-week night, and the headliners are a pop-punk four-piece from Essex founded by brothers Johnny and George Marriott. They've been on the road a fair bit lately, and this is one of the dates they're working through as they tour the UK.

Their career took off after their 2021 debut, Fractured Party Music, led to a deal with Xtra Mile Recordings. Their third studio album, Intermittent Fast Living, arrived in February 2024 and entered the Official Album Chart at number 17. Rounded out by Jules on drums and Ryan on bass, the band has spent a good deal of time supporting other acts across the UK, US and Europe — names like Frank Turner, The Lottery Winners, The Bouncing Souls, Flogging Molly, Skinny Lister, The Hives, Art Brut and Laura Jane Grace. Their own headline UK tours have sold out, and they run their own event, the Fractured Party Festival, with the fourth edition taking place in May 2025.

Joining them are Keep Flying, a New York rock band formed in 2016 who blend punk, pop and hardcore and front a signature horn section. So Good round out the bill, making it three bands on one night.

Doors open at 19:30 at The Fleece, 12 Saint Thomas Street, Redcliffe, Bristol BS1 6JJ. General admission is £17.50.
