Crooked Little Sons headline show at the Junction

On Friday 30th August, a punk rock band called Crooked Little Sons took over the Junction in Plymouth for their headline show.

With support from Disgraceland, The Electric Shakes and Jim Pope the night was set to be a good one!

Jim Pope opened the night with an acoustic punk set to warm the crowd up. His songs went from upbeat, melodic pop punk vibes to a slower tone with songs to pull at your heart strings. The set was varied and perfectly suited the tone of the night. Jim plays all over the county so if he’s in your local area, do yourself a favour and go and support him and his music!

The Electric Shakes and a 3 piece rock band from Dorset who’s sound can be summed up as noisy garage rock n roll. The band bought their high energy attitude to the stage and the crowd weren’t disappointed. The songs were catchy, loud and fast ; everything you want from a punk show! With moments of comedy gold in between songs, this band really know how to work a crowd.

The main support were a band called Disgraceland who are a 3 piece punk band from Devon. I’ve had the pleasure of working with this band a few times before and they never fail to put on an incredible show. The band are hectic and fantastic to watch. They bring their unapologetic political punk sound to the stage shining light on important messages about our society and their opinion on the current political climate.

Crooked Little Sons are a punk rock band who I’ve photographed countless times before and not once have the band failed to perform on top form. The band have a fantastic sound, which merges punk, rockabilly and rock n roll to form their unique style. Frontman Josh is one of my personal favourite musicians to photograph as he doesn’t hold back during his performances. The band have recently released their new single which they’re now in the process of touring.

See them live here!!!
