Stoke-on-Trent three-piece Formal Sppeedwear are already masterful studio architects of irresistibly hooky, jagged post-punk. The quavering, echoed yelps that immediately open their brand new single “Who Needs Spain Ball?” will have you believe it’s David Byrne, right down to his cadence. Serrated 12-string electric riffs exactly like those pioneered by late ’70s XTC and Television then collide with that voice, setting off an urgency that’s sustained by a thrusting krautrock groove.Catch them in Sheffield and Leeds this November. Bar open from 6pm every event for pre-gig bevs SLICE GUYS PIZZA open every event from 6pm Serving 12" sourdough pizzas, wings and mac Find us in the Yellow Arch Courtyard Also available on Uber Eats, Deliveroo and Just Eat
