Performance Choice of the Day
Today’s “Performance Choice of the Day” spotlights Demob Happy strutting their phenomenal single “Autoportrait” — delivered live and loud for Radio 3 RTVE Spain.
A compact side edit for a performance that hits with live-wire tension, sharp riffs, and a little after-midnight swagger.
Lean, loud, and a little dangerous
The mood here is all nerve and release. Tight silhouettes, dark edges, and the kind of rock energy that feels cleaner the louder it gets.

We’ve been covering Demob Happy for years now — long enough to watch their Brighton‑via‑Newcastle fuzz‑rock evolve from underground grit to a fully sharpened, swagger‑heavy identity. That same signature snarl shows up here immediately. The trio slide into the session with the confidence of a band that knows exactly who they are and exactly how tight they can lock in when the cameras roll.
The groove hits first. Then the distortion blooms. Then that hypnotic, low‑slung pulse they’ve built their name on takes over the room.
It’s punchy. It’s gritty. It’s the kind of live cut that reminds you why performance still matters — and why we keep returning to this band every time they drop something new.
Dig it below.
