The Alarm with Belouis Some and The Blow Monkeys

Formed in Wales, The Alarm is known for their energetic mix of amped-up acoustics and harmonica. Hits like “The Stand” and “Sixty Eight Guns” gained them fame. The band played live via MTV in the Spirit of '86 concert and reinvented themselves with 2004's “45 RPM” chart hit. They've faced hurdles like Mike Peters' cancer but released albums such as "Under Attack" and "Equals." Celebrated during their 30th Anniversary, they continue to impact with albums like the 2019 chart-topping "Sigma."

The Blow Monkeys, hailing from the UK, are known for their eclectic, soul-infused hits like “Digging Your Scene” and “It Doesn’t Have To Be This Way.” With a career spanning 40 years, they've worked with artists such as Curtis Mayfield and Paul Weller. Reformed in 2008, they have since released six albums, maintaining a politically engaged sound and a diverse musical approach.
