Interview with Rhi Kavok: Frontwoman of Gulls

"Brighton trio Gulls’ #punkrockpoempop sounds like Sleaford Mods and Bikini Kill in a high-speed collision on the bumper cars. Stripped back riffs meet sweet beats; all with a message running through it. This is a whole new kind of Brighton Rock.



"Gulls filter their fury at local and global injustice through the prism of their seaside home. These songs want you seething and seduced."

Who are you and what do you do?
