Cside Swindle

Cside Swindle are a four-piece punk and new wave covers band from Herne Bay, Kent, channeling the raw energy and rebellious spirit of late ’70s Britain. Formed in 2023, they’ve quickly made a name for themselves on the local circuit with high-octane sets that pay tribute to the golden age of punk — think Buzzcocks, The Clash, The Damned, and beyond.

With a sound that’s fast, loud, and unapologetically DIY, Cside Swindle bring snarling guitars, driving basslines, and a frontman who spits every lyric like it’s a call to arms. Their debut gig at The Parkerville set the tone: no frills, no filler, just pure punk attitude. Since then, they’ve shared stages with UK punk legends like Mau Maus and King of Pigs, earning a loyal following across Kent’s underground scene.

Whether you’re a die-hard punk or just craving the sound of real rock ’n’ roll, Cside Swindle deliver the goods — loud, loose, and straight from the seaside.
