JollyBoat

Performers

The brothers Tommy and Ed recently moved to London and achieved their dream of headlining comedy clubs for a living. Their new dream is to have more fun and enjoy life.
Mixing together comedy, live music, visuals, audience interaction and a little behind-the-scenes programming, Jollyboat put on a show that's not quite like anything you've seen before.
They have songs about classic games, D&D, pirates and Game of Thrones. The last one's especially appropriate because Ed cosplays as Robb Stark.

Ezkit Cosplay

Ezkit Cosplay

Cosplay Guest

"Hi! I'm Josie, AKA Ezkit Cosplay, and I've been hooked on making anime cosplays for 4 fun-filled years now. I'm based in Bradford, and being a northern girl through and through I've even braved the snow in my Revy (Black Lagoon) get-up!

My first anime obsession was Digimon at the tender age of 6, so it really was a dream come true when I built my wargreymon cosplay. Definitely a far cry from when I first started in 2015 and my mum had to do even the simplest of sewing for me lol!

I'm really looking forward to meeting you all at con, hope to see you soon ^.^"

Ooberfuse

Ooberfuse

Band

Ooberfuse are a songwriting band composed of Hal St John and Cherrie Anderson. They are unafraid to deep-sea dive into the deepest oceans of human emotions to colour-up drab contemporary life. Their songs are audio footprints left behind by people impelled towards invisible things.

On what sets Ooberfuse apart from their peers, an influential UK music critic says: “Ethereal electronic pop with the complex beauty that Ooberfuse has will endure.” Well-crafted songs delivered through powerful, emotional and heartfelt vocals combined with east-meets-west electronic music are Ooberfuse’s trademarks.

Myths and Monsters' is the alias of Ste Whiley, who is currently the host of a web series covering how to use a Gameboy to control synths and is supporting the organisation of Manchester's 4th Chip Bit Day.
