    The Wombats return with their most sophisticated and sonically adventurous album yet. Oh! The Ocean (out February 21st 2025) grooves with social anxiety, internal strife and the tribulations of LA life, where Murph lives. Once again they provide escapism from the mundane with songwriting that has profound meaning to audiences in turbulent times, packaged in the band’s deceptively cuddly and playful façade.

    Oh! The Ocean marks a new era for the band, moving away from previous synthetic sounds to embrace a warmer-blooded approach. Taking 50 new songs into a studio in Echo Park, LA, in July 2024 for six weeks of sessions with new producer John Congleton (St Vincent, Wallows, Death Cab for Cutie), The Wombats shunned the AI studio techniques that have become prevalent in modern-day recording, in order to make a far more natural and human album.

    Alongside familiar sounds they explore new genres from glistening tech rock to sci-fi pop, futuristic fuzz rock to bluesy rock’n’roll, with touches of disco and hip-hop-inflections.

    Described as "Mariachi Merseybeat", Red Rum Club are a brass infused indie sextet from Liverpool, UK. Through extensive touring and regular releases, they have built a huge following - a measure of this is that they have sold out numerous venues nationwide, including two nights at The Olympia, Liverpool 4000 capacity, in November 2022. Since the return of live, they have supported Circa Waves on a UK tour, headlined two UK tours with many sold out shows, made their North America debut tour including several shows at SXSW 2022, and supported Miles Kane. Following a summer of festivals 2022, the band also undertook their 2nd North America Autumn tour with 14 dates, followed by a short break before a UK & Ireland near sold out tour in November. The band are thrilled to be returning to SXSW and more USA adventures, plus the recording of the band’s 4th studio album.

    ‘Does It Get Cold In California?’ asks Ben Ellis with his latest single. Probably not, but even if it did: the British singer-songwriter's energetic indie pop would generate warmth on its own, no matter where his audience listens to him. Still largely new to the international music scene, Ellis has already enjoyed considerable success on the relevant streaming platforms since last year with singles such as ‘Ed's House’ and ‘No One Sleeps In Hollywood’. The newcomer is in no way trying to hide his soft spot for Hollywood, its myths and aesthetics. ‘The Hollywood EP’ will be released this year and demonstrates with six sleek and dynamically produced catchy tunes that the young man is blessed with some potential for a lasting career. Now it's a question of how he wants to bring this to stages all over Europe.
