Hot Box Chelmsford, 12 Sep 2026
Rock/punk/metal band based in Essex
Founded in 2024 in Essex, UK, SHADE OF ENVY have quickly become known for their creative original songs, thunderous-yet-catchy riffs and energetic live performances.
Mashing up influences from metal, hard tock and punk they offer up a dynamic sound that refuses to stick to genre conventions but is guaranteed to get the room moving.
The band has been featured on various radio stations including BBC Essex and Cambridgeshire. They have no plans of slowing down, with plenty of new music set to release over the coming months.
GURN VICTIM is a high-energy four-piece band based in Colchester. They deliver a blend of hardcore, post-hardcore, and UK DIY punk. Their aggressive and irreverent sound is heavily influenced by the local East Anglia heavy music scene and a distinct, chaotic sense of humour.
Chelmsford's grassroots music venue. Keeping independent music alive.
