Rupcha Farms Presents: Bradford Bash 2

Bradford Bash 2 is a live bill of Bradford bands and DJs, presented by Rupcha Farms, with the evening framed as a celebration of local, do-it-yourself talent in Shipley.

Presented by Rupcha Farms, whose music is described as nu metal and rave punk, Bradford Bash 2 is billed as a Born N Bred event that celebrates homegrown, do-it-yourself talent from Bradford. The bill pairs live acts with DJs, covering two contrasting strands of music.

The line-up comprises Rupcha Farms, Vazon, who play alternative rock with a groove feel, Queer Of Hearts, a riot grrrl punk act, and AfroBaby, whose sound combines soul, electronica and drum and bass. Each act is drawn from the Bradford scene, so the night works as a showcase of local artists rather than a single headline performance.

The event takes place at Kirkgate Community Centre in Shipley, a venue that hosts concerts and shows and has recently been revamped. An after party is linked to the evening at The Beehive, where Bradford DJs play and guests can socialise once the main programme has finished.
