Cross-genre punk rock has become increasingly hard to ignore. With appearances at other notable festivals such as Kendal Calling and Boomtown, and extensive support from the likes of BBC Introducing and Radio X, the last two years have propelled MILLIE MANDERS AND THE SHUTUP into the public conscience and the music industry at large.
The band are fronted by Millie’s staggering vocal dexterity, backed by grinding guitars and irresistible horns that have huge pop appeal. The lyrics deliberate on themes of loss, betrayal, anger, anxiety, heartbreak and bitterness, environmental catastrophe and political unrest. With a conscience that ensures zero plastic wrapping on any merchandise, and that limited edition artwork and clothing are sold to help raise money for charities, MMATSU are striving to make a difference whilst keeping us uplifted and brilliantly entertained.
Their live shows are renowned for their power and contagious energy, and this year sees the band writing their highly anticipated sophomore album, scheduled for release in 2024.
MILLIE MANDERS AND THE SHUTUP are: Millie Manders (vocals, ukulele, alto sax) Joe Quigley (guitars) Georgina Boreham (bass) and Pete Wright (drums, samples)
