Today's surprise is...
THE MACHINES!
Southend punks The Machines are local legends, delivering their punked up rock n' roll to venues across Essex and beyond for around 30 years now; so who better to headline Noisy's Brighton extravaganza earlier this year, and bring a true slice of Southend to another seaside town!
Below is a live clip of the song Denmark Street from their excellent set that evening; and be sure to check out this interview with vocalist/guitarist Nick Paul from mysteryisland.net who covers a wealth of topics including Ginsters pasties and Iggy Pop!
Drummer Steve is behind the excellent Southend Punk website, offering a comprehensive look back at the town's past during that era.
