We’ve got something to say! 😂 let’s face it, we’ve been a little quiet, but it’s fine, we’re still here 👋
Summer holidays etc are all done ☀️ and we’re back; new drummer 🥁 🐟 new music in the works 🎶 and we have a gig at the end of the year before we head back into the studio in January 2027 🙌🏻

Here’s a quick sneak peak from our first proper practice, things are coming together very nicely 😊

More info to come over the coming weeks and months, so please keep checking back 👀

Thank you for your continued support, it’s greatly appreciated ✌🏻

Hear what Si Beckwith of @rough_pup had to say about the pedal. Si was one of the first Tone Cult FX customers, and The Wizard had been firmly stuck to his board ever since.

🚨 Band Announcement 🚨

It is with sadness that we announce Louis Day, our tub thumping extraordinaire, has left Rough Pup.

We’ve had an amazing first year as a band playing some amazing gigs, recording our debut EP and being a part of the wonderful Socks On Records community.

With a change to Louis’ working circumstances he is unable to commit fully to the band so is leaving us with immediate effect.

We wish him all the best in the his new role.

Alas, this is not the end!
We will be on the look out for a new drummer and we will be back as soon as possible.
We have new music written, are working on more new music and have studio time booked in January.
We look forward to chapter 2 of Rough Pup and releasing it into the wild in the near future.

Thank you for all your support as always 🫶🏻
