Panic Shack

Panic Shack aren’t interested in the keys to the boys’ clubhouse or fighting with sharp-elbows for a seat at the table. They’re with you, out there: in the pit, at the bar, in the group chat – and their sound, collar-grabbing punk missives which walk the line between smoking area banter and a restless rage for a world we live in, refuses to sit politely.

The band’s frenetic live performances whipped up a devoted legion of fans on the Cardiff music scene despite having barely a scrap of music available online. The hotly-awaited arrival of their 2022 debut EP Baby Shack delivered on that early promise: a six-track shot of breakneck punk-rock delivered with a knowing wink. The EP sparked an instant connection, equal parts mayhem and state-of-the-world reflection, selling out its vinyl edition immediately and elevating Panic Shack to a must-see live act, touring alongside the likes of Los Bitchos, Orlando Weeks and Yard Act. It arrived with a torrent of acclaim from the likes of BBC 6Music and Radio 1, with tastemakers including NME, DIY, Dork, Upset and Guitar Magazine championing the band.

Yes, it might be Panic Shack’s world right now, having conquered the UK with a sold-out headline tour, tackling the strongholds of Glastonbury, Reading and Leeds, Latitude and a tour supporting Bob Vylan – but the magic lies in the fact that it’s very much your world, too.

I'm the director of a wonderful small web design company, based in a small village called Cromarty in the Highlands of Scotland. If you'd like a website built by a nice team of reliable people, most of whom have been building websites for well over 20 years, get in touch. We would love to help you.

If you host your website with us, we'll plant at least one tree a year (probably a few more), each and every year when we send you our invoice.

If this sounds good, pop over to our own website and get in touch. Jamie, Colin, Garve, Sandy or Gill will be happy to help you. If you're in the North of Scotland, pop in for a tea or coffee and we'll get you a nice bun to wash it down with, made by the fantastic folk of Cromarty Bakery.
