Live: Benefits @ Float Along Festival - 23rd September 2023
Teesside's Benefits are making waves wherever they play these days. In frontman Kingsley Hall's own words "We lure them in with Reebok classics and good old-fashioned manners, and then just shout at them for 45 minutes".

There's more to Benefits than just shouting though. The politically charged punks have been compared to Sleaford Mods on more than one occasion, and have the unconditional approval of Pixies' Black Francis, so you know they're a bit good. The band's set at Sheffield's Float Along festival last weekend garnered a clutch of rave reviews, with our own scribe and photographer, Robert Barrett, calling their show at Corporation "easily the most gut punching set of the day".
