Undercover Pangolin at The Smokehouse

Event details

Description

Undercover Pangolin is a five-piece Norwich band blending indie rock, shoegaze, funk and metal. Their distinctive sound combines energetic percussion, harmonious guitars and pop vocals, drawing from both classical training and self-taught musicianship.

Young States, a Norwich alternative rock band, crafts raw, energetic music with emotional lyrics. Their latest single "Fool's Paradise" explores dashed hopes and expectations. Known for their melodic yet gritty edge, they're returning to live performance at Ipswich's Smokehouse after an 18-month break.

Muntjax, a Norwich four-piece, plays emo/pop punk music. With over a decade's experience in UK local bands and roots in emo, punk and hardcore, they aim to evoke nostalgia through their performances.
