Three older men stand close together. One man wearing a Hawaiian shirt raises his arm looking excited. Another man with grey hair wears a blue suit looking cheery while the third wears sun glasses with a distant expression.

Straight out of Liverpool and Sutton Coldfield, unorthodox UK hip hop trio The Northern Boys bring their energy to Lantern Hall.

Comprised of Norman ‘Ballhead’ Pain, Patrick ‘The King of Darkness’ Karneigh Jr (aka PKJ), and their mate Kevin, the trio gained viral fame with Party Time – a track tackling themes of sexuality, masculinity, and identity with raw honesty and biting humour.

Affiliated with the Sindhuworld collective and rap legends Pete & Bas, The Northern Boys carve out a unique space in UK rap. Fierce, funny, and unapologetically bold, their live shows channel the same chaotic brilliance that made them a viral phenomenon.

Don’t miss the chance to experience The Northern Boys’ boundary-pushing sound and uncompromising presence up close.
