On the Huh
A cheeky little podcast aimed at shining a light on the Norwich Indie and alternative music scene.
We'll be talking to bands, promotors, fans and all sorts of interesting people about what is happening in the flourishing Norwich Scene (and how it happens)
On the Huh
On the Pod meets On the Huh Band - what are the chances ?
From Norwich UK, the band has an impressive pedigree featuring members of UK punk bands Infa-Riot, Braindance and Special Duties.
Their music is closest to the street punk genre with big singalong choruses, tinged with glam riffs, channeling their inner, Slade and Sweet influences.
The band formed in June 2021 in an unmanned studio during the height of the Covid pandemic. A little known rule meant that it was perfectly legal to rehearse together but not to visit each other’s homes for tea and biscuits. Strange times indeed.
To date the band has released one single the ‘Peepshow EP’ and a stellar album ‘Bit on the Side’, both recorded at Perry Vale studios in London with legendary producer Pat Collier (Vibrators) Both releases showcase the bands high energy anthemic music which can be sourced digitally from Bandcamp, Spotify, YouTube Amazon and iTunes.
The band has played shows with the likes of UK Subs, Evil Conduct, GBH, casualties, Cockney Rejects,
Last Resort and the Drowns and have also played Rebellion Festival for the last three years, culminating in an impressive performance to a packed Club Casbah venue in 2024. They have ventured into mainland Europe e.g. Belgium and Germany playing at the sold out ‘Once a Punk Always a Punk’ Festival in Belgium and the famous Don’t Panic venue in Essen and have more shows in Europe in the pipeline.
They have just started work on their new album “Second time around”.
Have fun out there.
