They let things loop, stretch, and shift until you start noticing the details - a groove slightly off, a pattern not landing where you expect. It can feel minimal at first, almost held back, but that’s where the tension sits. The longer you stay with it, the more deliberate it feels.

School Disco come out of Brighton’s underground circuit, where genre lines tend to blur and bands are given space to figure things out in their own way. Their sound leans on repetition and control - parts loop, shift slightly, and reconnect rather than building towards obvious peaks. It’s less about impact and more about how it holds together. Live, that translates into a set that feels immediate and responsive, with the band locked into each other rather than following something fixed.

At Stoomfest, that brings a different balance to the lineup - something more restrained on the surface, but quietly hard to step away from once it settles in.
