WHO WE ARE

Sweet but Deadly (or SBD for short) was founded by a small collective of UK-based DJs and musicians in 2005, to informally organise concerts and clubnights for fans mid-20th Century music - and those musicians directly inspired by that era. From those initial seeds grew a business of regular events and tours. We pride ourselves on bringing the best of the new breed to a wider audience, and also relish bringing back classic bands for a new generation to enjoy.
