Bursting onto the scene in the early 80s with John Peel sessions and a Melody Maker front cover, he has since played over 4,000 gigs across 24 countries, released more than 20 albums, published eight poetry books, and penned his autobiography Arguments Yard.His latest release, 40 Years In Rhyme, endorsed by the late Benjamin Zephaniah, dives deep into dub poetry with rhythms from Kingsley Salmon and What's Left Dub. Previous work includes Restoration Tragedy, a unique fusion of early music and punk exploring the English Revolution of 1649. His newest book, A Lifetime of Football Writing, has just been published by Finnish fanowned club Tampere United.Attila's live show is a whirlwind of fiery satire, political bite, personal storytelling, dub rhythms, acoustic songs and even earlymusicmeetspunk performed on ancient instruments. He's relentlessly current, endlessly creative, and famously capable of performing a completely different set every nightproven by his 14day Edinburgh Fringe run of 14 entirely unique shows.TV Smith;Founder, frontman and songwriter of legendary firstwave punk band The Adverts, TV Smith helped define the sound of 1977 with classics like One Chord Wonders, Gary Gilmore's Eyes and the eradefining album Crossing the Red Sea with The Adverts. After the band's split, he continued to evolve through TV Smith's Explorers, Cheap, and ultimately as one of punk's most respected solo artists.His collaborations span continents and genres, including work with German icons Die Toten Hosen, who backed him on the acclaimed album Useless. His most recent release, Handwriting (2024), created with producer Gerry Diver, breaks new ground with a bold sonic landscape built without conventional rock instrumentshailed by many critics as his finest album yet.Fiercely independent and still touring the world with unstoppable energy, TV Smith continues to embody the true spirit of punk. Recent years have seen him perform across the UK, Europe, the Americas, Japan and beyond, with more global dates already lined up.Two punk legends. Two uncompromising voices. One unmissable night at The Palladium Club.
