In their own words: “Hi we are Honeyglaze, and there’s no time to explain." Honeyglaze are South London based, haiku-loving trio comprised of vocalist and guitarist Anouska Sokolow, bassist Tim Curtis, and Yuri Shibuichi on drums. Born out of lead songwriter Sokolow’s un-desire to be a solo-act, the group met officially at their first ever rehearsal- just three days ahead of what was to become a near-residency, at their favoured ‘The Windmill’, Brixton. Forming a mere five-months ahead of a subsequent five-months of mandatory solitude, a parallel that’s both aligned and universally un-timely, Honeyglaze, at first appearance, are a group who play with chance, time, and synergetic fate, in a manner few others are able to do. Pricking the ears of seminal producer Dan Carey and his team of merry taste-makers: Speedy Wunderground (Tiña, Squid, Black Country New Road), initial brainstorms saw the Speedy Wunderground / Honeyglaze partnership manifest into a dynamic that, quite simply, just worked despite having never met before. The resulting body of work that was spawned of this instant chemistry is an album that tackles themes varying from jealousy to inadequacy, cushion-y companionships to the smell of coffee on clothes, as with all good reflections of self, Honeyglaze is a fly on the wall opportunity to get to know three familial strangers in your own way- whilst they too suss out themselves, and the ever-growing circle around them, in the span of 35 minutes.

Nights of Helios present... TRUPA TRUPA Trupa Trupa is psychedelic post punk band from Gda'sk, Poland. According to Metro, they are combining post-punk and psych with skill. The Beatles sing Joy Division oversimplifies them but doesnt misrepresent them. According to The Guardian, the band's music blends off-kilter melodies, dense instrumentation and lyrical explorations of the darkest side of the human condition. The Times compares them to Sonic Youth, Radiohead and the Manchester scene in the 80s. According to Mojo, their gripping and energetic record packs a serious punch. KEXP highlights ominous guitars, stern rhythms and haunting melodies and The Quietus agrees. As Pitchfork describes, Trupa Trupa are the rare dystopian post-punk band to embrace optimism and levity as necessary survival mechanisms. They may not have the perfect prescription for a better world, but they welcome you to imagine one together. On February 21st 2025, the band released the album Mourners, produced by Nick Launay (Nick Cave, Idles, Amy and The Sniffers). Released by Glitterbeat Records, the album has been met with critical acclaim, with praise from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Brooklyn Vegan, BBC, to name just a few. "Trupa Trupa look to confront evil. This is a very strong band." Iggy Pop, BBC Radio 6 Music "The first album was great, but this one, I just think, is even better." Henry Rollins, KCRW "The Polish band's latest shows that they dont make protest music so much as process music, indulging the ugliest aspects of post-punk and post-hardcore as a means to protect what's good and beautiful in this world." Stuart Berman, Pitchfork https://trupatrupa.com/ FLIGHTS OF HELIOS Flights of Helios swim the bright fertile waters of indie maximalism (Arcade Fire, Grizzly Bear, Jeff Buckley, Echo and The Bunnymen, Wild Beasts), while weirder currents creep in from the depths (Swans, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, The Velvet Underground, King Crimson). The band have played BBC Introducing at Glastonbury, Wilderness and Truck festivals, and been aired on BBC 6 Music by Steve Lamacq, Gideon Coe and Don Letts. In recent years they've supported Caroline, Acid Mothers Temple, and Tara Clerkin Trio, and members have been blessed to play in Damo Suzuki's Sound Carriers. Flights of Helios' discography includes full-length album 'Endings'(2018) and ten singles. "A thing of beauty" The Line of Best Fit https://flightsofhelios.co.uk/ PAUL LODGE Professor at Oxford University making music of a philosophical nature. Informed by his lifelong engagement with philosophy and literature, Paul Lodge sings from the same place of mystery and wonder as Bob Dylan, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, and Joanna Newsom. Paul's music has been featured on BBC Radio Oxford Introducing and BBC Radio Cumbria. Listening to Paul Lodge reconciled me to Bob Dylan being given the Nobel prize.

Nadia Reid’s Enter Now Brightness is an album of departure and questioning, a reminder that songwriting can transform pain, joy, thoughts, and anger into something new. “I’m so much better off now that it exists,” she says. “Now feels like a new time.” Moving further from her folk roots, Reid establishes a sound distinctly her own—poised and expansive. The title, drawn from a book passage, evokes light breaking through, the feeling of stepping onto a stage, of life beginning. A record of great beauty and change, Enter Now Brightness captures Reid’s evolution, blending textural pop, country-leaning folk-rock, and striking emotional depth.
