After hitting #2 on the Official Independent Album Chart, #21 in the Official Albums Chart and with over 16 million streams with his self-titled debut, Dylan John Thomas now announces details of his biggest UK and Ireland headline tour to date. The tour includes his first ever arena headline show at Glasgow’s 14,300-capacity OVO Hydro, as he steps up after previously selling-out six nights at the Barrowlands.

Music was Dylan’s escape during a childhood in which he was raised in a foster home, and classic songs by the likes of Johnny Cash, Simon & Garfunkel and The Beatles soon inspired him to pick up a guitar and write his own songs too. All these years later, his songs echo such timeless influence and often explore the stories of those on the outskirts of society.

His own rise was assisted by the support of a mentor in the shape of Gerry Cinnamon, and it wasn’t long before Dylan was making waves in his own right. Euphoric singalongs and bouncing moshpits became the norm as his shows grew in scale with every tour, with When The Horn Blows describing his Liverpool gig as “nothing short of perfect… a night of exceptional entertainment.” And at Aberdeen, Clash noted: “Dylan really made the show his own with the great crowd repartee, sharing stories, encouraging the chants, whilst playing great music with personal lyrics and really earning every single thunderous applause and ovation.”

Fans continued to discover new favourites across two early hotly-tipped EPs and then his acclaimed debut album, which features singles and live staples such as ‘Fever’, ‘Yesterday Is Gone’, ‘Jenna’ and ‘Feel The Fire’. Those songs ensured that landmark moments kept coming: winning Breakthrough Artist of the Year at the Scottish Music Awards; hitting festivals such as Glastonbury, TRNSMT, Reading and Leeds; earning high profile airplay from Radio 1, BBC Introducing, 6 Music and Radio X, and playing shows as guest to star names like Liam Gallagher and Sam Fender. And now he’s set to follow them into arenas.

Regularly cited as one of the best live bands in the biz, the Skinnies’ annual live pilgrimage around the UK has become the stuff of gig circuit legend in recent years. And already champing at the bit to go again, the band will be hitting the road for a run of unmissable fixtures from Newcastle to Nottingham, Bristol to Birmingham, multiple venues in Scotland, plus sizing-up the prospect of a big pre-Christmas finale at London’s The Scala at the tail end of this year.

Following the release of their rave-received ‘Shanty Punk’ record last year, it seems Dan, Lorna and co. are not resting on their laurels any time soon and are already dropping teasers for some potential new material landing in time for these shows. As Dan Heptinstall says of the 2024 Winter tour:

“Our end of year wouldn’t be the same without hitting the road for our annual Skinny UK Tour. And Christmas doesn’t officially start until we hit London for the Skinny Christmas bash, for which we go even bigger this year - at the amazing Scala in Kings Cross. Can’t wait to get back out there for some serious partying! We might even find space in the set to test drive a few new tracks. See you at the barrier!”

Juno Award nominated band Valley return this year with their most intimate and personal record yet. Water the Flowers, Pray for a Garden (out August 30 via Universal Music Canada/Interscope Capitol Labels Group) is an exploration of grief and resilience from one of today’s most exciting alternative-pop bands.

Since forming in 2016, Valley have accrued over 1 billion streams globally, having appeared on viral charts in the US, Philippines, Korea, Japan and more. Along with their three Juno Award nominations, the band has also garnered praise from Consequence, Wonderland, American Songwriter and CBC. Helping prompt much of their global recognition was “Like 1999,” a gold certified hit that went viral on TikTok.

Valley have also become known for their high-energy live shows, which have been brought to renowned festivals like Life Is Beautiful, Governors Ball, Slow Life and Wunderstruck as well as their debut US TV performance as part of Stephen Colbert’s #LiveAtHome session. Having opened for artists like Lennon Stella, Dermot Kennedy, COIN and the Band CAMINO, Valley also nearly sold out their first-ever North American headlining tour.

Valley’s latest album was born out of a three year old demo of the LP’s title track and was eventually written while members Rob Laska, Karah James and Alex Dimauro isolated in a cabin with executive producer Chase Lawrence of COIN. This will be the band’s first album without one of the founding members Mickey Brandolino.

Valley most recently played Budweiser Stage in direct support of Beaches and will kick off a headline North American tour this fall.

Distance as a measure of time and place informs Kelly Finnigan’s, A Lover Was Born with a grit and grace that turns passion into virtue. The latest solo release from The Monophonics frontman roots itself in the best traditions of midwest soul labels like King, Curtom, Dakar, and the Bodie Recording Company. A Lover Was Born is a testimony that these deep cut grooves are not resigned to nostalgia, instead, they are at the burning heart of longing and hope.

The journey Finnigan takes listeners on over Lover’s eleven tracks echo the state of motion and growth since his solo debut, The Tales People Tell (2019). These two records bookend a prolific period of output, including a pair of Monophonics albums, a Christmas album, a mixtape, and a full slate of producing and engineering other artists (The Ironsides, Alanna Royale, the Sextones). “There’s nothing like making records,” says Finnigan. “It feels like that’s my purpose — the reason I was put on this earth.”

Written in California, Ohio, and Staten Island, Kelly Finnigan collaborated with old friends in and outside the studio. “I enjoy working alone but it’s not how you want to make a record…almost everybody I brought in for this album I’ve worked with, toured with or spent a great deal of time with.” Max and Joe Ramey (The Ironsides), Jimmy James (Parlor Greens), Sergio Rios (Orgone), Joey Crispiano (Dap Kings) and Jay Mumford (aka J-Zone) all contribute to the overall sound of A Lover Was Born.

Dramatic influences like Isaac Hayes (check out the piano on “Be Your Own Shelter”) and Jerry Ragovoy are chopped and folded into Northern Soul uptempo numbers to create stompers like “Get a Hold of Yourself” or “Chosen Few”. Finnigan’s take on Deep Soul is captured brilliantly on “Walk Away from Me” and “Love (Your Pain Goes Deep)”, while Boom Bap pervades on hard hitters “His Love Ain’t Real” & “Cold World”. Slower songs such as “Let Me Count the Reasons”, the emotional “All That’s Left”, and the soul-stirring album closer “Count Me Out” show the honest and tender side that has become Finnigan’s calling card. All the while, the voice is raw and earthy — in the best tradition of R&B shouters like Otis Redding, Lee Moses, and David Ruffin.

The songs on A Lover Was Born reconfigure the spliced and sampled DNA of hip hop (extracted by crate diggers like Dilla and RZA) to create something new, underscoring both the spectrum and depth of soul while making a case to the timelessness of Finnigan’s sound.

Mikel Izal, is one of Spain’s most important singer-songwriters today, he is recognised for his participation in the group IZAL.

His foray into the world of professional music occurred at the age of 24, after his arrival in Madrid where he began to move in the singer-songwriter circuit, obtaining various awards as a composer, such as the Young Creators Contest of the Community of Madrid.

In 2010, Mikel Izal embarked on a new path by founding the IZAL group, together with Alberto Pérez, Iván Mella, Alejandro Jordá and Emanuel Pérez. The band positioned itself as a benchmark on the natiyonal pop-rock scene, carrying out massive tours in arenas and festivals, where they performed as headliners. Throughout their journey they have won prestigious awards and certifications, granting them gold records for the albums Copacabana (2015) and Hogar (2021) and a platinum record for Autoterapia (2018). Among Mikel Izal's notable compositions are anthems such as "La mujer de verde", "Qué bien", "El baile", "Copacabana", "Little great revolution" and "Pausa".

Formed in 2019, The Heavy Heavy emerged from a potent alchemy of their eclectic sensibilities. Hailing from the small town of Malvern (a stretch of the English countryside he describes as “a beautiful place full of hippies and longhaired people”), Turner took up guitar in his early teens and later played in a series of psychedelic/surf-rock bands, while Fuller’s extensive background includes performing at Montreux Jazz Festival as a teenager and acting in the London theater. As they moved forward with a mission of “making music that sounds like our favorite records ever” (including everything from Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac to folk-blues act Delaney & Bonnie to Fleet Foxes), the duo dreamed up a batch of songs in a London flat and self-released an early version of Life and Life Only in late 2020, eventually catching the attention of ATO Records and signing with the U.S.-based label in 2022. Fueled in part by the breakout success of “Miles and Miles” (their ATO debut single), The Heavy Heavy’s five-piece live band soon began playing bigger and bigger venues and taking the stage at leading festivals like Bonnaroo, Boston Calling, and Newport Folk Festival, in addition to performing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” and “CBS Saturday Morning” and scoring major syncs with the likes of Nissan and Netflix’s “Outer Banks.”

Because of the rapturous response to their debut EP, The Heavy Heavy found themselves in an unfamiliar headspace when it came to the creation of One Of A Kind. “With the EP we were making songs as a way to soundtrack our own lives, but now it’s a different beast—it’s no longer theoretical, which gives everything more weight,” says Turner. But in the end, the band discovered an essential touchstone in the connection they’ve forged with their fans over the last two years. “Not too long ago, a woman came up to us at a show and told us she was getting a tattoo of one of our lyrics to remind herself to keep pushing on and keep chasing her dreams,” Fuller says. “Moments like that always remind us that as long as we keep making what feels good, chances are it’s going to make other people feel good too. I hope this album feels like a great big party to everyone, and I hope it inspires them to live their lives however they want.”

For the last few years, West London rapper Bawo has enjoyed critical praise that few can match. Initially, he explored different shades of hip-hop and rap but did so with a self-assuredness that set him apart. Comparisons have been drawn with contemporaries like Kadiata and Knucks. Much has been made of a ‘West London’ sound in the rap scene, and although it’s difficult to pin down, there’s something fundamental that Bawo taps into. West London, he explains, looks more to hip-hop culture from the West Coast of America, “In West, you see NBA jerseys and hats more than anywhere else I've been. It's like a steeze.”

Growing up in a traditional Nigerian household, ‘musician’ might not have been his parents’ first choice for their son’s career, but there was plenty of musical nourishment at home. From Alexandra Burke and X Factor to Akon and country music, it all had its place. All music, no matter the genre, was judged on its own merit, and this anything-goes approach had a lifelong impact on Bawo’s philosophy. “Music in the house was definitely prominent,” he explains. "My parents weren't musicians, but they loved music in their own ways. My dad, especially, would play music every weekend, all day long. We listened to Nigerian tribal music and worship music from my tribe, Itsekiri.”

With two EPs under his belt and a debut full-length on the way, Bawo is proving his staying power. He tries not to place too much importance on stats and numbers, joking that after his first sold-out show (a 150-strong audience at The Social), he clocked in for his 7:00 AM shift at Waitrose the next morning. When he began receiving messages from fans worldwide, encouraging him to continue or sharing how his music helped them through tough times, he knew he was onto something.
