The Cheap Thrills appearing at this event

Still just about in their teenage years, The Cheap Thrills' achievements stand out above the rest in Liverpool, playing rammed headline 02 Academy shows, winning the coveted Liverpool Sound City Youth Live Award and playing the Calling Out stage of Kendal Calling. Since, the band has played gigs in several successful stints in London, as well as supporting breaking international touring bands. "Messy tumble of garage rock and nifty turn of phrase, a blast live too." The Guardian.
