SANDRA'S WEDDING
1:45PM – 2.15PM
Drawing comparisons with iconic guitar bands like The Housemartins and The Smiths, Sandra’s Wedding are a Goole-based band who wear their working class routes firmly on their sleeves.
With catchy songs full of jangly guitars and clever lyrics, the band’s 2017 debut album ‘Northern Powerhouse’ and 2018 follow-up EP ‘Good Morning, Bad Blood’ were both met with rave reviews. Songwriter Joe Hodgson's lyrics are evocative tales of love, loss and life in Northern industrial towns set to jangly, melancholic guitars that have drawn comparisons with a sound similar to The Smiths and The Housemartins. Sepia-tinged yet humorous, they offer an insight into life in a former ship-building town.
