Hana Piranha
Hana Piranha are a band known for their use of violin. However, for her solo sets, Hana Maria puts down the violin altogether in favour of an Irish harp, and her snarling vocal lowers to a purr, drawing you softly in to the dark underbelly of her artistry.

Riffz 4 Dayz is a brand new annual DIY rock festival featuring fourteen of the best upcoming bands and artists in one awesome venue in Worcester on one weekend. It is a community venture run by fans and members of the rock scene.
The festival takes place at Paradiddles Music Cafe and Bar just outside of Worcester City Centre. The venue has played host to many great acts and memorable nights over the last couple of years, and has built a reputation for a friendly and inclusive atmosphere as well as raucous rock shows.
Born from a conversation between Jack (The Jericho Racks) and Cameron (The Sunlight Machine), Riffs For Dayz is a showcase of the best underappreciated artists making direct, riff-heavy rock music with a DIY ethos and a desire to connect with new and familiar audiences. The duo formed Stateless Music, a grassroots organisation to bring together these “stateless” artists who didn’t fit into an existing scene and create a new scene from the ground up!
Stateless Music has teamed up with Pipeline Promotions to bring this scene together and exhibit it in a venue that is perfectly suited to its ethos. It is a community of musicians and music fans who want to share the experience of top-quality rock music in a small venue and for a bargain price. The community is open to anyone who shares these values and wants to see some of the UK’s most talented acts spanning garage rock, blues, alt-rock, acoustic rock, desert rock, and grunge. If you like your music untamed and unadulterated this is the event for you.

Saturday
Nuns of the Tundra
Hipflask Virgins
The Sunlight Machine
You Dirty Blue
