BIO // INTRODUCING BLAME CAESAR

Blame Caesar are a high-energy five-piece indie-rock band from Bedfordshire, blending classic rock grit with modern indie flair. Fronted by Joe Cullen and backed by Max Randall (Guitar), Chris Benner (Guitar), Lui Tomlinson (Bass), and Ed Bavister (Drums), the band draws from a wide range of influences—from Motown and Funk to Heavy Rock and Electronic House—creating a sound that echoes Foals, The 1975, Muse, and Paramore. Since launching in late 2023, they’ve headlined London’s Camden Assembly, supported Toploader at a major day festival, and shared the O2 Islington Academy stage. Their debut singles “Shall We Dance” and “Don’t Let Me Fall” have collectively surpassed 12,000 Spotify streams and received airplay on BBC Introducing, New Music Generator, and Radio Lab.

​

Known for their passionate, crowd-pleasing anthems and reimagined covers of acts like Kasabian and The Prodigy, Blame Caesar have quickly earned a reputation for delivering high-octane live sets. Their performances have been praised for “great dynamics, strong vocals, and impressive set flow,” with promoters calling them a band that “delivers and then some.” Whether performing original material or reinventing iconic tracks, Blame Caesar are a polished, must-see act poised to make serious waves on the UK indie scene.

TIMELINE // THE STORY SO FAR

FUTURE // WHAT'S NEXT

The boys are writing up several new tracks with a refined formula and doubling down the best of the Blame Caesar style. During the second half of 2025 we are hitting more local gig venues around Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire with these new bangers, with the hopes of releasing towards the end of the year.

​

We're kicking off H2 strong with gigs at legendary venues in the local area such as The Horn in St. Albans and Esquires in Bedford. It is expected that the band will continue to grow from strength to strength building and broadening their reach beyond London and the home counties, proactively establishing a strong online following in the process. The band are actively exploring opportunities to work with like-minded and ambitious promoters, venues, and labels and would be glad to hear from you.

Yo! If you've made it this far, we're super grateful that you are considering us to play your venue, and we are absolutely pumped to bring the BC sound to your stage and show you what we can do! We are by no means divas and will of course try to be as flexible and accommodating as possible, we've pulled together some information below that we think might be useful and save  some time in the run up so we can work on promotion and tickets!

Notes:

Our current live sets do not include the use of click track or samples. Where possible on stage monitors with custom mixes are preferable, particularly for the lead (Joe) and drums (Ed) but we can be flexible. The provision of house equipment and back line such as  house drum shell kit, cymbal stands, microphones, amplifier mics, and cables helps us travel light and is much appreciated. Where required we are able to source additional microphones and cables. Where possible the band would be grateful to soundcheck no later than 1 hr prior to doors.
