Hooligan Night
Delinquent showgirl Ruby Blues will be familiar to some of you as queen of Glastonbury’s crazed Trash City area; she also appeared at the last White Mischief. Now she’s back, playing the main stage at White Mischief on Saturday June 7 with her twisted, psychotic electro-dub band Hooligan Night.
Hooligan Night formed in 2006 when production […]
The Outside Royalty
It’s a mission at White Mischief to find live musical artistes who are willing to step over the precipice with a bold visual and sonic identity, and The Outside Royalty are a perfect example. Using cello, violin and synths to create a sound they call “electro chamber rock”, and based out of a squalid Victorian […]
Ebony Bones
When we started White Mischief, there was only one rule about the kinds of bands we’d book. It doesn’t matter what genre, what style of music they make…as long as they are completely different, brilliant live and a world away from the dour indie fodder that can be found at the usual toilet venues. If […]
Miss Behave

Oojami
The next White Mischief show, themed “Around The World In 80 Days”, is all about taking partygoers on a trip around the world.

Dickon Edwards

Since 1997 Dickon has kept a celebrated Internet Diary, making it one of the UK’s longest running ‘blogs’. This […]
Co-founders and hosts of White Mischief are Tough Love, who will be appearing on the main stage at White Mischief on Saturday June 7.
Blending tribal, world-influenced drums and percussion with quirky, acerbic English lyrics, six-piece pop band Tough Love have been described by the Guardian as “the afrobeat Scissor Sisters” and by Flavorpill as “tribal […]
Dusty Limits
Dusty Limits has been called “the best MC on the Edinburgh festival fringe”, has hosted nights including his own noted show Kabarett, and has been feted by American magazine Newsweek. Plus he’s been an acerbic compere at the past two White Mischief shows and is returning to host an evening of song and sarcasm at […]
At the last White Mischief in November a gaggle of brilliant, fleet-footed swing dancers took to the floor accompanied by the jazz tunes of The Shellac Sisters. This time we are delighted to have Theodora, one of the founding members of the Shellacs, together with her husband Sheriff Marshal Lawman who is co-founder of the […]
