# Event Details - **Event Name**: So It Goes presents BIKINI BODY & BEN KATZMAN - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 27 Sep, 2026 at 04:00 pm – Sun, 27 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm (+00:00) - **Event Description**: So It Goes proudly presents The Gisburn Forest Series. In September, we welcome Bikini Body & Ben Katzman to Stephen Park. BIKINI BODY Bikini Body are your favourite DJ’s favourite punk band. They’ve released two records with Optimo Music, whose support helped shape their current trajectory and a sound that’s dancier than punk and punkier than dance. Drawing on ESG, Liquid Liquid, Warmduscher and Squid, their sound pairs percussive grooves with a confrontational vocal style rooted in The Slits, Bush Tetras and X-Ray Spex. Recent activity includes a 13-date UK co-headline tour with a sold-out London show, a packed-out headline set at The Windmill, Brixton, and festival appearances at Manchester Psych Fest, Hidden Door and Watching Trees. Airplay has followed across BBC Radio 6 Music, Radio 1, KEXP and NTS. The band have just completed 10 new tracks at PRAH Studios in Margate. The new material leans even deeper into the sound they’ve been honing live; rhythmic, confrontational and built for both the dance floor and the DIY basement. BEN KATZMAN Ben Katzman is a vibrant, multifaceted musician who treats music not just as entertainment, but as transformation. A fan-favorite finalist on Survivor, Ben has carved out a singular lane as a solo metal artist whose mission goes far beyond the stage: to use sound, art, and his signature SHREDDING as tools to process emotion, spark empowerment, and help build the reality we actually want to live in. His music is a high-voltage fusion of metal, punk, rock, and pop packed with face-melting riffs, massive hooks, and lyrics that turn vulnerability into power. For Ben, shredding isn’t just a guitar technique; it’s a release valve, a celebration, and a call to action. Each solo becomes a way to metabolize chaos, channel joy, confront fear, and invite audiences to do the same. His songs celebrate empowerment, nostalgia, and the beautifully weird corners of modern culture, creating communal spaces where catharsis and connection collide. Onstage, Ben’s infectious presence transforms concerts into shared rituals of emotional alchemy. Whether fronting his own band or touring as guitarist with Guerilla Toss, Mannequin Pussy, and Colleen Green, he brings humor, heart, and unfiltered intensity to every performance. He has shared bills with boundary-pushing icons like Primus, Coheed and Cambria, and Phish, turning each stage into a playground for possibility. Beyond performing, Ben is the creative force behind BUFU Records, an independent label dedicated to championing underground visionaries including Japanther, Tall Juan, Mac DeMarco, and Free Pizza. His work extends across mediums, from collaborations with Volcom and Red Bull to surf tours and cross-disciplinary art projects that blur the lines between music, lifestyle, and community-building. At the core of everything Ben creates is a simple but radical idea: art is a tool. Through distortion, melody, and fearless self-expression, he invites people to feel deeply, laugh loudly, confront their shadows, and shred their way toward a brighter, more intentional tomorrow.
