REPAIRS the band

Powerful, personal and political, REPAIRS are experts at playing with tension and release. Martin Phillips (he/him), James Milne (he/him) and Nicola Edwards (she/her) have been making noise together since 2017. Shows to date have been lucky enough to include support for local heroes Die! Die! Die! and Poison City Records faves Bench Press and Moody Beaches; opening for international legends JUNE OF 44 (2023) and Screaming Females (2019); and slots at 95bFM’s Fancy New Band (2019) and The Others Way Festival (2022).

Released in the midst of 2020, debut album Repeat, Repeat was welcomed as a “delicately placed, powerful slap in the chops followed by the biggest hug you’ve ever had.” Sophomore album Disappointing Sequel continues on the themes of the 2020s, with songs about never-ending anxiety, crushing disappointment, the importance of connection – and why being angry matters. Nationalism is still stupid.

The music the band REPAIRS make is great for fans of: Mourn, METZ and Mclusky.
