“It’s always a joy to me when something jumps up and smacks you between the eyes – Mad Dog Mcrea did that to me” 

– Mike Harding

Support comes from The Kahunas

Underground, indie, urban folk duo, The Kahunas bring hypnotic Waa Waa driven violin riffs on top of a Four to the Floor dance beat.

Melodic harmonies and vocals with original lyrical content that is inspired by life on the road, the places they visit and the people they meet.

The pair have been writing, recording and performing together for 3 years and with a Second Album due to be released in Spring 25.

“Indie Folk duo, The Kahunas blew me away”
