LIVE MUSIC FROM PHNOM PENH: DRUNK ON CHAMPAGNE

Born from the humid, neon-drenched chaos of Phnom Penh in 2025, Drunk On Champagne is a four-piece psychedelic experiment that serves as a jarring testament to the accidental virtues of globalisation.

Comprised of a precarious coalition of English, Scottish, Australian, and French expats, the ensemble has spent their debut year staging a hostile takeover of the local scene, parlaying a string of sold-out club dates and festival appearances into a brand of notoriety that is as impressive as it is inexplicable.

To witness them live is to be subjected to a dynamic and eclectic sonic assault that oscillates violently between the sweetly subtle and the aggressively absurd.

They offer a heady, hallucinogenic brew designed for those who find traditional rock music insufficiently disorienting and prefer their melodies served with a side of disdainful sophistication.
