They have more recently toured the UK with Red Guitars, toured in Estonia.  They played Shiiine On in 2021 and Preston Pop Festival 2025 and have a new album due in September 2026.

Vernons Future were forged in the white heat of indie's golden age and play at the poppier end of the indie spectrum as Liverpool based band, The Vernons. They reformed more recently as Vernons Future, releasing the album Aquaplaning in 2022, 'blending late 80s Scouse indie-rock sensibility with the swagger of Julian Cope.' - Slacker Shack

Drunk Keith! alias Keith Robert Haworth is a prolific songwriter, active since the 90s under numerous names such as The Protagonist! and Art School Chicks! His most recent album is Perfumed Ponces! - a 'melancholy collection of narrated incidents' recorded with guest musicians Selwyn Harris and Ian Matthews.

So three highly individual acts for a mere tenner. Get down.
