High-energy punk show headlined by Exeter artist Boss Cass, with support from Carsick, Bones Ate Arfa and GRLBND.
Boss Cass plays Bomba on Wednesday 28 October, with Carsick, Bones Ate Arfa and GRLBND on the bill. It's a local one: Cass is an Exeter artist, and he's playing right here in the city.
If you haven't seen him before, the setup is part of the draw. He fronts the show on his own, with just himself, his rig and an old-school ghetto blaster. He plays high-energy, cheeky sets built around fuzzy guitars, and he describes his sound as sitting somewhere between Soft Play, Beastie Boys and IDLES. It's a one-man punk powerhouse, and he does the whole thing without a band behind him.
He's been playing since 2022, and the numbers since then are something of a DIY marathon: over 170 gigs across the UK, all without professional representation. He's played Glastonbury, Boardmasters, Burn It Down Festival, Great Estate, Little Orchard, Leopallooza, Outcider and Attitude Festival. He's also supported Fat Dog, Getdown Services, Heavy Lungs, The Meffs, Carsick and Native James, and has picked up plenty of BBC Introducing radio plays, being named their 'Artist Of The Week' several times. Carsick, who's on the bill here, is one of those names he's supported before.
