Ultimate Thunder - Leeds Learning Disability Band

James Mabbett is organizing this fundraiser.

Ultimate Thunder are on the brink of releasing their second album but have been suddenly hit with the news that their supporting charity can no longer support the band financially. This means that rehearsals and gigs will stop with immediate effect and band members will no longer be able to meet as Ultimate Thunder.

Unknown to the band, Ultimate Thunder played their final gig on Feb 3rd 2024 at The Brudenell Social Club.

Named by The Big Issue as 'The Most Punk Rock Band in Britain', Ultimate Thunder had national success with their debut self titled album, receiving praise from like of The Guardian, The BBC and Quietus.

With your help this does not have to be the end.

All money raised by this fundraiser will be used to help the band start weekly rehearsals again and resume gigging.
