Viva Zapata!

SYS Exclusive Stream: Viva Zapata! – Viva Zapata!

One of our favourite new bands this year is certainly Bristol’s Viva Zapata! Since playing their first show at the start of this year the band have become highly productive and have wasted no time putting together their first EP recorded from their home in true DIY fashion.

Does anyone have that stupid app […]

Fishlock Fridays #7: Tory Government (siiiiiiiiiigh)
