2026 Bands
The festival kicks off at 12 noon and runs until 8pm.
Our Friends Electric specialise in the synth/pop music of the early 80s. From Depeche Mode to Simple Minds, through The Human League, Eurhythmics and ABC, they authentically reproduce the often-eclipsed tracks and seminal classics of that decade.
When OFE last played Croxfest in 2019, there was a guy in the crowd dancing next to a girl and they got talking about how much they loved 80s music. After the gig, they decided to go for a drink and that led onto a relationship. In 2024 they got married and asked Our Friends Electric to play at their wedding to celebrate the music and the moment when they first met. Their names are Victoria and Amit and they may well be in the crowd for Croxfest 2026.
With Infectious rhythms. Mercurial guitars. Driving bass grooves. Euphoric synth and vocals. Silent Rogues are a fresh four-piece band from Cambridgeshire playing exciting new indie grooves that draw on influences like Primal Scream, Django Django, Kasabian, MGMT, Empire of the Sun & Duran Duran.
Since their debut to an impressive crowd at the St Neots Festival 24’, the Rogues have gone from strength to strength, delivering mesmerising shows at venues across the region, including Bedford Esquires, Cambridge Junction, The Portland Arms, Club 85, The Horn St Albans and The Six Six Bar Cambridge.
Silent Rogues have now released four singles, with their latest single “Tantalise” getting good reception & radio play. A remix of their debut single Riot is coming out on August 7th.
