Korn Again: The world’s premier live tribute to Korn capturing the look, the raw, aggressive sound a
Korn Again are a Korn tribute band from the UK endorsed by the original band. After forming just seven years ago, Korn Again have wasted no time in cementing their claim as the world’s greatest Korn tribute act, and have managed to replicate the band’s trademark raw and aggressive sound, effortlessly translating it to the live arena through countless high-octane live performances.
Korn Again also have the stamp of approval from the original band themselves, as they were joined on stage by Korn’s bassist ‘Fieldy’ and drummer Ray Luzier during a show in December 2016 to perform two of their biggest known hits – ‘Here To Stay’ and ‘Freak on a Leash’. News of this spread fast in the rock/metal press after Korn posted an official video of the gig on the bands Facebook page.

Evanescence Of Fire is born in London in 2017 by Veronica’s profound desire to form an Evanescence Tribute Band. Her musical journey started in childhood but was in 2003, when she was a teenager and heard “Bring me to life” on MTV for the first time, that her love for Evanescence started and still didn’t end – as probably happened to numerous Evanescence fans!

Over the years she followed the dream to sing Evanescence, and with her cover band (Evanescence, Lacuna Coil, Nightwish..) in 2012 won the competition “Music Square” in Italy.

“The music of Evanescence touched me, gave me comfort and strength in the worst times of my life, Evanescence can express my deepest emotions.

Now, with Evanescence Of Fire… a dream came true!”   Veronica

REVIEWS – What they say about us

It was a super, spectalular night! I hope to see you again. Vote for the night 10, in fact 1000! On Lithium and My Immortal, trust me,  I was about to cry… I had such goose bumps… Giulio Furlan at The Underworld, London14.08.22
Thank you all for an awesome show!! So happy you played Whisper and Lost in paradise, brilliant setlist! Craig Mitchell, Chinnerys, Southend On Sea 14.05.22
Amazing gig. Veronica is an amazing fron woman and encapsulates Amy Lee so beautifully whilst making her performance her own. Also massive thank you to Steve who noticed how emotional I was after they played My Immortal and gave me a hug.
Em Buxton-Anderson at Corporation, Sheffield, 03.09.22
You gave good credit to Amy Lee! A girl in the audience, MK11, Milton Keynes 16.04.22
We saw you guys in Manchester and to be honest you’re better than the original. I mean Evanescence should borrow your guitar players that’s for sure. Guys shred 6 strings fender like he’s been doing that for decades.

Our debut album, Everything Beautiful In Time was released in December 2015.
Our second album, Gathering the Waters was released in October 2017.
Our third album, Things Unseen was released in April 2020.
You can find them both on Bandcamp.

John Murphy: keyboards (including murphatron) bvs and second lead vocal on Clock of the Long Now
David Addis: guitars and bvs
Michael Whiteman: bass guitar and lead vocals (plus occasional keyboards and guitar)
Ella Lloyd: flute

History
Michael and David met at secondary school and have been making music together in various guises for over 20 years. They met Ben a few years later and John relatively recently. Some of the music that ended up on Everything Beautiful In Time was written over ten years ago, whilst Michael was at university, and has been looking for an outlet ever since. In 2015 Michael decided to record a progressive rock album all by himself under the name “I Am The Manic Whale.” After completing the first song it became apparent that he would need some help and so called on the other guys to make guest appearances, which gradually evolved into playing the whole album. Rob Aubrey was persuaded to take on the mixing of the album. Everything Beautiful In Time was released in December 2015.
After a successful pledge campaign, they were able to release a second album, Gathering the Waters, in October 2017.
Work on their third album is well underway.
The band have undertaken a number of live performances and enjoy immensely interacting with a live audience.
New Forms of Life, I am the Manic Whale’s first live album, will be released in February 2019.  A live DVD release will follow late in 2019.

Music
All our albums are unashamedly progressive rock. The band is inspired by many of the great progressive artists (Neal Morse, Genesis, the Flower Kings and Big Big Train) but hopefully is also able to bring something new to the table as well.

Event Details

MAD BY MOURING

Mad By Mourning are a Spook-Rock band spawned in Plymouth, England who use their obsession with gothic art and storytelling to create worlds in which their music is situated. Songwriter and vocalist Alfie James calls the band’s music “a mess of internal emotions translated to tales of horror, vengeance, romance and tragedy” combining their love for fiction with reality.

Alfie and Guitarist Tom Emery have been inseparable since the age of four and formed the band after touring and releasing music under the name Vampire Money. They found a strong shared passion for the band with drummer Alex Hallett and grew into an era deserving of a new identity. Thus, Mad By Mourning was born.

With an immense amount of live shows and a detailed release campaign planned for the next eighteen months, Mad By Mourning are ready to bring their twisted stories to life and hold the rock scene at gunpoint.

Event Details

Wonk are on fire, without question the strongest line up of musicians and silliest bunch of assholes ever. We all want this, everyone is pulling in the same direction these days.

Touring is a joy. I live vicariously through “the kids”, drummer Max and Vezzy. Looking back, the turning point for Wonk was when they joined 4 odd years ago. I’ve watched the pair of them grow every fuckin gig into the bad ass professional musicians they are today.
Max should be session drumming, i promise you he won’t disappoint if you use him for recording.

I am so proud of Vezzy. Her songwriting makes me feel sick it’s so good, like, i wish I’d written those songs. Our voices work soooo well together, she makes me sound like am angel which makes me very happy.

We have TWO guitars now, AJ is my behind the scenes rock and skateboard buddy, the reliable foundation of our live sound that creats the solid rhythmic wall. I don’t give AJ enough credit when I’m prancing about like an asshole on stage but BELIEVE I’d miss him if he wasn’t there, also i never have to worry about him woofing the beaks and blazing the hash of weeds which makes me love him even more.

Ryan is so totally insane, like TOTALLY INSANE on guitar that i burst out laughing at the absurdity of his genius most gigs.

Then there’s that old reliable workhouse, my bestest, most cherished silly friend Pwosion. As long as that dusty bin keeps turning up to gigs then i’ll keep smiling. The James Bond of punk rock, the secret agent, the funniest most beautiful soul in the history of punk rock.
I love you all guys. Thanks for doing this journey with me, i know I’m bonkers but I’m pretty sure we have the bestest fun ever right?
Then there’s YOU, our lovely extended Wonk family. Without you we are nothing. You’re continued support of my fucked up life is NEVER taken for granted. I genuinely love you and thank you with all my heart.
