South by SouthWest is in full swing, Shoreditch is bustling, the sun is out and Day 1 of it’s debut year has been incredibly successful and full of amazing bands and interesting talks. Sometimes finding heavy music at festivals can be a challenge but with a stellar lineup of bands at Brick Lane TapRoom (curated by London’s own BiteBack) we were in for a treat. Sunday Best, Mandragora & Gender Crisis all took to the Taprooms Stage and it was electric.
Sunday Best have been breaking into the heavy scene recently, with their latest single Dig Deep dropping, fusing groove-y guitars and ballard-esque vocals all building to an angry but powerful breakdown. Everyone should keep an eye out for Sunday Best, They embody what the scene is all about, inclusivity, representation and impeccable stage presence.

Self proclaimed ‘ragtag bunch of misfits’ Sunday Best are creating the representation within the scene that they didn’t have growing up, completely independent and fully DIY, Sunday Best leave everything on the stage! Brick Lane Tap was sweltering, with everyone moving and dancing throughout their set. On stage their presence is utterly fantastic, raw & authentic, pushed by so much emotion. Their discography may be short at the minute but it is excellent, they write about the world around them, and frankly, the state it’s in. Ultimately fuelled by emotions and political outrage. Sunday Best will drag you in with their heavy riffs, groovy rhythm, and excellent lyricism & there’s no doubt you’ll love it!

Sunday Best are the ones to watch currently, there’s no doubt about that, if they keep going at this pace it won’t be long till we’re seeing them everywhere! After the gig, I caught up with the band to chat about everything Sunday Best, from inspiration to friendship, the alls & in between, and what shines through above everything else, is that this talented band, at the core of it all are genuine good friends who have something to say & won’t stop until you listen.
