British Sound Project co-organiser, Steve Wood says:
“The British Sound Project is very much geared for a younger audience – especially students who have just celebrated Fresher’s Week, who’ll be looking for new bands and sounds.

The lovingly named ‘Sausage Army’ turn up en-masse, clad in Motörhead and Ramones merch for a night of silly, classic rock and roll. Bringing the pop back to the punk, Bronnie brings the warm-up stretches in…
