Retsecrows

Retsecrows (pronounced ret-see-crows) are the youngest touring rock band in the UK, a high-energy outfit from the Midlands formed in 2022 and already turning heads way beyond their years.

If Black Sabbath, Pearl Jam and The Offspring had children, it might sound a lot like this: big riffs, melodic hooks, and a chaotic, crowd-driven live show that feels more like a takeover than a setlist.

All members are 17 and under, but don’t let that fool you. Retsecrows have already built a serious live reputation, from packed hometown shows to festival stages including Call of the Wild 2025 and 2026, Rockmantic 2026 plus regular slots at venues like The Marrs Bar (Worcester), The International (Leicester) and The Giffard Arms (Wolverhampton).

Their tracks Grief Of Me, Blood Sea and Maniac have racked up over 20,000 Spotify streams alone and picked up radio play, but it’s live where they really hit.

“...we could be witnessing the birth of the next big rock band to break out.” – Musipedia Of Metal 2026

This is loud, young, unpredictable rock music with real energy behind it. If you like your gigs tight, sweaty and a bit unhinged in the best way, this is one to catch early.
