The Alley Club presents… Mod Night – Sharp Class live

Sharp Class are a British power-trio inspired by iconic artists like The Clash, The Who, and The Specials. Their music is a fusion of Punk, Soul, Power-Pop, Brit-Pop, and Rock ‘n’ Roll. The band released their debut album ‘Tales Of A Teenage Mind’ in 2023. The trio consists of Oliver Orton on guitar and vocals, Billy Woodfield on bass and vocals and Declan Mills on drums. Their onstage performances are electrifying and captivating and their catchy power-pop-laden guitar music is delivered with ease.

Wherever Sharp Class go, they always deliver an exciting performance. In May 2023, the group travelled to the USA to take part in a series of concerts. Their three-night run included shows in Rhode Island, Portland, and Somerville, each of which showcased the unparalleled dynamism of the trio to international audiences.
