PUNCHBAG are Clara and Anders Bach, a South London sibling duo. Already racking up sold out headline shows across the UK and Europe, their new EP, I Am Obsessed, shows that on each new release, they push their instincts further, tightening their sound and leaning harder into the extremes that define it. That intensity spills directly into their live shows, where the duo’s sibling chemistry and unfiltered energy have earned a reputation for turning rooms into something closer to group therapy than a gig, and from the off they’ve demonstrated an uncanny skill for commanding a crowd.

Their latest release – described by NME as “Freewheeling, cathartic rave-pop” and by Clash as “Unhinged pop that is both infectious and confrontational” – is a volatile, hyper-saturated expansion of their self-described “aggressive hopecore” world, where everyday life is pushed to breaking point. The EP received praise across press and DSPs: Dork Magazine called it “bold and packed with personality”, while DIY declared it “Gloriously untamed and utterly magnetic”

PUNCHBAG recently named a Spotify RADAR: First Listen artist and sold out their debut headline show at Bermondsey Social Club, a trend that continued with headliners at Windmill Brixton and the Lexington, alongside festival slots at Reeperbahn, Iceland Airwaves, The Great Escape, Bergenfest, MOMO, Truck, Victorious, Pstereo, Twisterella, Live At Leeds In The City, Sŵn, Ritual Union & more, as well as a live performance on Made In Chelsea.
