  The Wombats

  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.

  Red Rum Club

  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.

  Brògeal

  Daniel Harkins and Aidan Callaghan got to know each other on the bus from Falkirk to Glasgow, and started a ‘trash punk garbage rock band’ in high school together. This eventually grew into a five-piece, named after an ancient group of travelling mercenaries, who in the winter turned to playing music for food: the Brògeal. With influences from Scottish and Irish folk music and instruments like banjo, mandolin and grandad’s accordion, they play “true Scottish pop music that is too folk for the indie kids and too indie for the folk dads”.

  cherryholt

  Cherryholt are a 5-peice band from Lincolnshire. Cherryholt’s songs have a nostalgic early noughties indie-pop feel, coupled with explosive guitar solos and breakdowns comparable to experimental-rock. We also take influence from climactic rock-ballads, heavily driven by technically impressive vocals, amalgamating all these styles to create a unique, yet relatable catalogue of repertoire.

  Fully formed September 2024 by a set of twins and school friends, Cherryholt quickly burst onto the scene with the release of our debut single "criminals", followed by their second single “Bailey”.

  Cherryholt’s eagerly anticipated third single “irresistible”, recorded at sick room studios, becomes yours on 16/08/25, taking heavy influence from the early naughties scene.

  Being young lads in rural Lincolnshire, Cherryholt write their songs about experiences on small-town nights, young love and the modern age, resulting in timeless, emotional and relatable tunes.
