Pushpin
"Pushpin is a London-based psychedelic indie rock band. The group, formed while at university, bring together a range of influences - from the soulful soundscape world of Frank Ocean, to the kaleidoscopic, boogie-able synthpop hooks of MGMT; From the spacey psych madness of early Pink Floyd, to the all-out guitar bashing of Sonic Youth. They also get compared to The Doors more than you might expect. Pushpin returns to the Spice of Life to play an acoustic, or at least drum free, set.

Pink Haze
Originally formed by frontman Luke and drummer Rory in October 2017, the duo rehearsed regularly at Satellite Studios in Enfield, jamming out original songs. Finding members however proved to be difficult, until in January 2018 when they met Rafael, who became their guitarist. The three spent months rehearsing and posting ads online in search of a bassist, and by July, Axel responded to an Ad and completed the line up! In January 2019 Rafael left the band to take time to focus on himself and go to college and was replaced by new guitarist Emily!
The 4 of them all have varying taste in music but all have the same vision of sound and style the band can create, looking to make fun catchy music people can have a good time listening to! Taking influence from the likes of DNCE, Paramore and The 1975, Pink Haze combine catchy indie riffs with punchy pop rock chord progressions and ambient synths.
