The None

Gigs

Cardiff

THE NONE is a new band of lifelong musicians. Comprising bassist Gordon Moakes (Bloc Party, Young Legionnaire), vocalist Kaila Whyte (Blue Ruth, Youth Man), guitarist Jim Beck (Cassels) and drummer Chris Francombe (Frauds), they make an uncompromising vision of noise rock with melody at its heart.

The band formed at the start of 2023 and bonded over hours in the rehearsal room – making noise, discussing shared obsessions, and, most importantly, playing together.

The anonymity of their name reflects a creative approach which favours egoless experimentation and open collaboration. This ethos, the combined decades of music making, and the unique musical identities of all four members can be clearly heard in the art they create.

Following their debut tour in February 2024, they have since played shows supporting Les Savy Fav and Mannequin Pussy. They have tour dates coming up with METZ as well as a string of festival appearances including Supersonic, End of The Road, and Sŵn Festival.

The band released their debut EP, MATTER in August 2024, exclusively on Bandcamp. Fans of Shellac, The Jesus Lizard, Silverfish and Unwound will likely find plenty to enjoy.

‘MATTER is a brooding, furious blast of an EP ... throughout the barrage of threshedinstruments, bellowed vocals, and pounded drums, THE NONE somehow manage to summon infectious melodies from the center of this flaming blizzard.’ – Bandcamp Album of The Day

Following their debut shows in February 2024, THE NONE have quickly built a reputation as a formidable live act – racking up shows with the likes of Mannequin Pussy, Les Savy Fav and Dream Wife, as well as sold out shows of their own and a string of festival appearances. They are now gearing up to support METZ on their final ever tour before capping off the year supporting Big Joanie.

The band released their debut EP, MATTER, in August 2024, exclusively on Bandcamp. Fans of Shellac, The Jesus Lizard, Silverfish and Unwound will likely find plenty to enjoy. They will be releasing more music and touring extensively in 2025.
