Last month the three HED fundraisers raised a combined total of £6,450. But we're not gonna stop there! In 2023 HED will continue to bring you a series of fundraisers with 100% of all ticket sale revenue going to the "Save The Ferret" fund. Please support these events and help save the Ferret!
CUT (from Italy)
https://www.facebook.com/SoundofCUT
Italians "Cut" play a dark, groove-filled brand of garage noise rock that brings The Fall and The Stooges to mind in equal measure. Every song is a riotous adrenaline-sodden rocker in which Cut leave not one second unfulfilled or unexplored. This is rock music to be savoured and can be described as "John Lee Hooker stuck in a post-punk straitjacket".
BABOON
https://www.facebook.com/lookatbaboon
That Preston band in masks. No, the other one. From sea shanties to glam-rock synth freak-outs, covering bigamy and avian conflict, Baboon went out with a bang in 2013 then stumbled out into the light reformed in 2018. Here they are in all their glory. Where's the beef?
AHMED & THE ROMANS
The son of the Egyptian James Brown and 3 Italians pieced together from the bowels of the old empire. A real treat, a real sonic treat to bite into.

THE JACKPOT GOLDEN BOYS
https://www.facebook.com/JackpotGoldenBoys
The Jackpot Golden Boys are infectious, uplifting and bursting with melodies and have been a much loved local act for many years. They have previously undertaken large scale tours of USA & Europe supporting Epic Rap Battles Of History. With Alex, Jim and Mike you can always expect the unexpected.
ZVILNIK
https://www.facebook.com/zvilnik
Zvilnik are a sci-fi prog surf cabaret rock band, who draw in influences from Eastern Europe, the West End and low grade horror movies to create a sound like no other. Expect weird science, unnecessary surgery, robots, dinosaurs, and more in a Zvilnik show.
POLYPORES
https://www.facebook.com/polypores
Polypores (aka Stephen James Buckley) paints music with a modular synthesizer, drawing influence from ambient, new age, and experimental electronics. It soars, bubbles, crackles, and soothes, in ever-shifting, immersive cosmic landscapes. Dream environments and sonic sculptures.
