I found out a bit more about the band ahead of this weekends event!! Can you tell me about The Fens? We're a two piece, guitar/drums/vocal. (Jordan Heatman and Charlie Williams) How long have you been together? "The Fens" has been a thing for around 2 years, although we've grown up with eachother. Who are your musical influences? We grew up on Muse, Radiohead and the White Stripes... but more recently we've been very much relating to the sounds of QOTSA and Wolfmother... tasty! How would you describe your music ? Thick and naughty Are there any of the bands or artists playing Swansea’s Alternative weekend that you are looking forward to seeing?

Windshake and Red and The Hogweeds, right after each other too... will be trying our best to see that shit. Punks 4 Mental Health is about challenging stigma around mental ill health . What does it mean to your band to be playing this event? F**k the stigmas! What can people expect from your band if they come out to see you ? Lots of juicy riffs, and groove... and the occasional improvisation jam (juicier). Anything else you want to add? Nope! See you there!
