The Surge are a band hailing from across the Hampshire and Dorset border. Their sound could be described with influences of post-punk, indie, alt-rock and old school punk. The songs from The Surge centre around song-based tunes and the powerful vocal delivery and energetic riffs provide a setting perfect for live

shows.

 

The Surge were nominated in the Best breakthrough artist OMA category for the 2024 Original music Awards.

  

The Surge have had support bookings for new wave legends, The Vapors; punk originators The Members; Brazilian punk antagonists, Porno Massacre and Germany's answer to classic era Pogues, Mr Irish Bastard.

​

Bookings include venues in Southampton, Bournemouth, Portsmouth, Brighton and Swansea, as well as other bookings in London. Festival bookings have included Camp Bestival, Music in the City, The Beggars fair, Fazza fest, NBQ fest and Dorsets Barnstomper festival.

 

The Surge are:

Queenie Akam - Lead vocals

Pete Coombs – Bass guitar

Perry Flatt - Lead guitar

Adrian Saunders – Rhythm guitar

Marcus Wright – Drums

​

The Surge are continuing to write and record as they go, collaborating on the adaptation of music written with a natural variation on how the songs are formed. Sometimes they have a story, sometimes they are inspired by conversations in the practise room, sometimes they have an underlying political message, and sometimes they are just ‘because’. The Surge are available on all platforms, Spotify listeners peaked at over 8,000 per month.

​

​The Surge show no signs of stopping on this upward curve, and with their punky guitars, driven lead guitar lines, riff filled bass lines, unassuming drums, and commanding hook driven vocals, they are all set to bring a dynamic showcase to any venue.
