Get ready to transport yourself back to the heyday of the 1990s as two of the UK’s most electrifying tribute acts go head-to-head at The Watering Hole. This isn’t just a concert; it’s a full-throttle celebration of the era that defined a generation, pitting the anthemic “Wall of Sound” of Oasis against the diverse, high-energy hits that fueled the Britpop movement. With the Atlantic surf as your backdrop, prepare for a night of nostalgia, swagger, and non-stop singalongs.
Representing the legendary Gallagher brothers are Cornwall’s very own Kernoasis. Formed by seasoned musicians with decades of experience in the local scene, they have mastered the raw energy and unmistakable attitude of Oasis in their prime. From the sneering rock ‘n’ roll of Cigarettes & Alcohol to the soaring, stadium-sized choruses of Don’t Look Back in Anger, Kernoasis delivers an authentic experience that captures the heart of the 90s. Their performance is a love letter to the Manchester icons, ensuring every “Mad Fer It” fan feels like they’re back at Knebworth.+2
In the other corner, That Brit Pop Band brings the full breadth of the Cool Britannia era to the stage. Widely regarded as one of the UK’s premier genre tributes, they don’t stop at just one band. Instead, they deliver a high-octane setlist that spans the biggest hits of Blur, Pulp, The Verve, Supergrass, and beyond. Whether you’re ready to jump to Song 2, chant along to Common People, or get lost in the groove of Bitter Sweet Symphony, their fast-paced show is designed to keep the dancefloor packed and the energy levels peaking.+2
