This band Alien Chicks, they are a problem. Frenzied and evil. Constantly teasing total chaos, leaving you a little on edge in the process. – Jack Saunders
Brixton based Alien Chicks were in several ‘Ones to Watch for 2023’ lists, and were named ‘one of the most talked about bands’ at The Great Escape 2023 by Rodeo magazine. DIY described them as ‘one of the bands at the heart of London’s DIY underbelly’in recent DIY NEU feature, as well as 1 of 6 recommendations for their recent performance at Mutations Festival out of the hundreds of bands playing there. Queues were outside the door, much like their recent Left of the Dial showcases.. this band are on a fast upwards trajectory! Catch them in your local grass roots venue, before it’s too late.
Only a year and a half into being a band, they have gained a buzzing grassroots following, always playing to packed crowds, with their London hometown following growing at an incredible rate; from a sold-out Lexington in April 2023, to a sold-out 100 Club, just 6 months later… that’s a 75% increase! They have had radio play from Jack Saunders (Radio 1), Steve Lamacq, John Kennedy and Tom Robinson from BBC Radio 6 and Honor Morrison from BBC Introducing and are loved by bands alike, with English Teacher recently choosing them for their UK Sold out October 2023 tour support (including London’s Scala) and Fat Dog, Opus Kink, Warmduscher all choosing them for hometown London supports.
They are a feisty, fun, groove-infused punk trio, whose music explores a whole mix of genres including jazz, rap, bossa nova, and math rock. Their songs are a surreal social commentary packed with punchy rhythms and eclectic time signatures. Their youthful charisma, humour, passion, and sense of fun make for an addictively energetic live show.
