Harbouring the clatter, clamour and camaraderie of a night out fuelled by cheap vodka Red Bulls and questionable decision making, South Yorkshire four-piece The Reytons need little introduction – you’ll hear them coming a mile off. Armed with little more than their instruments and inherent ability to tap in to their burgeoning fanbase, causing a zealot-like devotion in their fans, the band’s rise from “kids off the estate” to homegrown hero status has been nothing short of meteoric; a trio of sell-out Sheffield shows in the last 2 years cementing their reputation instantly. With the same cheeky everyman charm as fellow Sheffielders the Arctic Monkeys, before they could afford cocaine, it’s not surprising the band are on a rapid ascent to the top of their game. It’s not just South Yorkshire in which Reytons fever has well and truly taken hold. Having successfully sold out the entirety of their debut tour, it’s clear that word has spread beyond the confines of the Steel City; the band’s infectious brand of indie rock and burgeoning reputation proceeding them wherever they go. And it’s not just on the UK’s stages in which the buzz is getting louder, however. Having notched up over half a million Spotify streams across their three EPs, Alcopops & Charity Shops (2018), Kids Off The Estate (2017), and It Was All So Monotonous (2017), the band’s prolific run of releases shows no sign of slowing down, as forthcoming single ‘Wide Eyes and Halos’ picks up where last year’s ‘Canine’ left off, its clattering drums and careering guitars slotting in effortlessly within the Reytons’ canon. Armed with little more than an array of heavy-hitting singles and their own integrity, The Reytons are very much a band on the cusp of a breakthrough. A mouthpiece for the disenfranchised as uncompromising as they are uplifting, it seems that for lads from South Yorkshire are putting Sheffield back on the UK’s musical map. 14+, 14 and 15 year old's MUST be accompanied by an adult .

Formed in Birmingham in 1989, OCS spent six years fine-tuning their sound before lighting up the Britpop party with three Top 5 albums; 1996’s ‘Moseley Shoals’, 1997’s ‘Marchin’ Already’ and 1999’s ‘One From The Modern’. The band has also achieved seventeen Top 40 singles, including a staggering run of nine successive Top 20 singles and a mantelpiece full of awards. As with all the best groups, behind the swagger and style were great songs, with words and melodies that found their way into the public’s hearts. Honing their craft in the spirit of the soul, folk and blues greats who inspired them, Ocean Colour Scene’s celebrated live shows have cemented the relationship between the band and their fiercely loyal fanbase, with each concert serving as a communal outpouring of hope and joy, boasting the most life-affirming singalongs you’re likely to hear anywhere.

The hottest emerging talent straight to the heart of London!

Zach Condon , the mastermind behind Beirut , will release his fifth studio album Gallipoli on February 1st 2019, and today he shares the title track and details of a North American and European tour. The 12-track Gallipoli started life in the winter of 2016, with Condon returning to his old Farfisa organ, the same one used to write the first two Beirut albums (2006’s Gulag Orkestar and the following year’s The Flying Club Cup). Following recording stints in New York and Berlin (where he now calls home), Condon settled in Sudestudio, a studio complex deep in rural Puglia, southern Italy. It was here that he rediscovered the old joys of music as a visceral experience which became the founding principle for Gallipoli. Available today, Gallipoli’s title track is a cathartic embrace of old and new. Condon says, ´´ We stumbled into the medieval-fortressed island town of Gallipoli one night and followed a brass band procession fronted by priests carrying a statue of the town’s saint through the winding narrow streets behind what seemed like the entire town. The next day I wrote the song entirely in one sitting, pausing only to eat. ”

A solo moniker for Philadelphia musician Michelle Zauner, Japanese Breakfast is known for her artfully experimental, deeply intimate brand of indie pop. Taking a break from her band Little Big League, she debuted in 2013 with the melodically lo-fi cassette release June.

Many fans fell for their sardonic, zeitgeist-capturing storytelling style after hearing their first single Athens, France about dating a confident, younger girlfriend who was into Ariana Grande, followed up by Sunglasses, full of references to modern life, including NutriBullets and Danish crime dramas.

Since her musical divergence from the band, Rebecca has revelled in unleashing a whole version of herself with no compromises, no reducing herself, no hesitating. She would go on to write the songs that had been rising up inside her all through the years — big songs, that spoke of love and sex and chaos, that brought in huge basslines, gospel choirs, the kind of polished, provocative production she admired on the biggest pop records.

Wet Leg’s blend of dry wit and minimalist-punk riffs started off as a joke between Isle of Wight duo Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers. However, reality soon hit with their debut single ‘Chaise Longue’ becoming an overnight sensation and clocking up over seven million streams to date. With the numbers initially seeming virtual, it took their set at last year’s Latitude Festival to make it all feel real. Being amongst other musicians and seeing the packed-out tent sing along with the witty, Mean Girls-loving track made Wet Leg finally see themselves as legitimate musicians
