Short Waves Presents: BE N!CE is a London-based band known for their genre-blending, high-energy take on punk and their electrifying live shows. Formed in late 2022, the quartet—Pol Mills (they/them), Emily Harris (she/her), Alex McIntosh (he/him), and Brett Lee (he/him)—infuse humour, intensity, and sharp social commentary into their sound. Their debut EP, WHERE AM I?, praised as “unbridled, vivacious 21st century punk,” captures the band’s DIY spirit and bold approach to themes of identity, injustice, and modern absurdity. With over 50 shows across England & Germany, a growing fanbase, and support slots for acts like CHERYM and Split Dogs, BE N!CE is proving punk’s not just alive—it’s weirder, louder, and more vital than ever. BLDSUGR! Emerging from the industrial heartlands of Birmingham, BLDSUGR! are a ferocious Triple Threat Trio. Born in 2023, weaving a tapestry of sound that dances between the realms of shock rock and the heavvy oppressive tones of doom metal to forge what they call ‘doom punk’. BLDSUGR! is an inglorious mix of theatrical spectacle, gothic excess and unapologetic grit. Presented by Short Waves. This is an 18+ event
