If you're off to Shiiine On Festival this weekend, hopefully see you Sunday 1.30 pm in Hotshots for our set.
Less than 4 weeks to go until Shiiine On Skegness.
We can’t wait to be back after an 8 years. We've supported lots of bands in the intervening years that are regulars at Shiiine, so hopefully we see some familiar faces during our set early Sunday afternoon.
Just a few remaining 👉 www.shiiineon.com
