Krooked Tongue delivered an amazing triumphant Cardiff gig on Friday 30th January at Tiny Rebel Cardiff as part of a wider tour for Independent Venue Week 2026.

A jam-packed, charismatic eclectic set saw this already-stellar but-still-rising Bristol-based 3-piece (consisting of Oli Rainsford (lead vocals & bass), Harry Pritchard (drums) and Dan Smith (guitar and vocals)) showcasing prime cuts of their extensive, enticing back-catalogue from the past few years, alongside more recent electric releases such as 'Drugstore Cowboy' 'Marigold' & 'Let 'Em Loose'; and also exciting new single 'Blood Shark' - out now! (released 13th February), *** LISTEN HERE! *** , in advance of their hotly-anticipated debut album, 'I Know A Place', out April 24th.

Faultless and accomplished whilst fully energised, free-flowing and wholly captivating, this was a high-octane, engaging, fantastic show, that had every member of the assembled throng dancing and thoroughly rocking.

A gig not to be missed - and with a tour to support the April album release, scheduled in May - here's on to the band's next exciting chapters.  Definitely ones to watch!
