This week’s line up of groups sees the pick of the action in the south of the island.

Manx indie surf-rockers Voodoo Bandits bring the sounds of the summer to the Secret Pizza Company in Castletown, and the island’s favourite hip-hop collective, the bouncing, dance machine that is Han-FX and the Innuendo Orchestra at Compton Vaults on Saturday, from 9pm onwards.

There is the extra added bonus of live music on a Sunday this weekend, thanks to Tynwald Day and Compton Vaults also have the stomp-tastic delights of the folk-punk group the Ballaghs, playing live for the first time since they were allowed out, playing from 8pm.

Support comes from punk rockers Half Naked Headline.
