Swindled’s sold-out headline Show at Pop Recs Sunderland – Sat Oct 25

Sunderland’s own alt-pop five-piece Swindled are set to headline Pop Recs on Saturday, October 25th, joined by Leazes and Bogus as special guests.

Fronted by brothers Jonny and Will Swindle, the band have steadily built a reputation across the North East for their distinctive mix of sharp pop hooks and inventive stagecraft. Their recent festival run including Kendal Calling, Lindisfarne Festival, and The Gathering Sounds  has seen them reach new audiences and refine a live show that balances precision with unpredictability.

The performance at Pop Recs follows the release of their new EP, What A Nightmare!, which has drawn strong local attention for its mix of playful songwriting and restless energy. Fans can expect a night that brings together the group’s sense of theatre and their knack for writing songs that sit just left of the mainstream.

Swindled’s shows are known for blurring the line between performance and spectacle, and this one looks set to continue that approach in their home city.
​
Doors open at 7:30pm. Tickets are sold out but keep your eyes peeled for future shows from Swindled.
