Langkamer’s third album ‘Langzamer’ stands tall as their most restrained, mature, and sincere album to date. Produced in the dusty vaults of the Cornish Bank by Ben Woods of The Golden Dregs, the album takes Langkamer’s heart-on-sleeve slacker rock to new heights. Rich with wry reflections on life and loss, Langzamer jumps between buoyant pop singalongs and mournful folk balladry, propelled throughout by dexterous, infectious melodies.

Prodigiously gigging over the last three years, the Bristol quartet have played sold-out rooms across the UK and Europe, as well as playing support slots for Mystery Jets, Jeffrey Lewis, Juan Waters, Ratboys, Willie J Healey, Fenne Lily, and Opus Kink.

The news of their third album comes following press and radio support from the likes of Uncut, Brooklyn Vegan, BBC Radio 6Music (Huw Stevens, Mark Radcliffe, Steve Lamacq, and Tom Robinson), Radio X (John Kennedy), So Young, Rough Trade Counter Culture, Blogotheque, Morning Star, Wax Music and Clunk.

Comprising four friends (Maisie, Mike, Jimmy and Dev) from the coastal town of Frankston, Victoria - The Belair Lip Bombs craft heartfelt and hook laden indie rock songs connected by the groups close bond and friendship.

Led by Maisie Everett (Vocals, guitar), the group formed in 2017 and built an early following across Melbourne supporting local acts Ladyhawke, Spacey Jane, Slowly Slowly, Tired Lion, Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers, British India, and more.

In 2018, the group released their debut, self-titled EP - a collection of six tracks characterised by loud rock influences and 90’s grunge guitar sounds. In 2019, the group expanded their sound further on ‘Songs to Do Your Laundry To’, an EP that explored indie rock and pop sonics across its tight three track run.

Refining their sound throughout 2020, The Belair Lip Bombs followed the success of early standout tracks ‘Blah Blah Blah’ and ‘Golden Skin’ with the 2021 single ‘Out of Here’ - an earnest and love-sick rock track that has cemented the groups knack for writing catchy, slick and honest pop songs.

Although cutting their teeth through a sonically varied and exciting beginning, the group made their most defining statement on 2023’s ‘Lush Life’ - a record spanning 10 tracks of evocative exploration; stories that run a gamut of longing, seeking new horizons and discovering new paths to satisfaction and self-fulfillment.

Rats On Rafts return with brand new music since 2021’s acclaimed album, ‘Excerpts Of Chapter 3: The Mind Runs A Net Of Rabbit Paths’.

Currently preparing for the release of their fourth album set for release in 2025, Rats On Rafts’ new single ‘Hibernation’ is a rain-soaked lament to nature’s battered mortality, a monochrome snapshot of the landscape played out in beautiful cold wave delay.

Finding joy in self-isolation, “I noticed that I could feel really comfortable with songs that can feel really heavy and isolated,” says Fagan “ If you listen to a Joy Division record for example, for a lot of people they’re really downcast. But for some people it’s like stepping into a really warm bath, because you can really identify with that music. I think that’s also what’s going on with “Hibernation”. I could identify with the coldness of the atmosphere, and that languid feeling of that song.”

PleasureInc is the genre-fluid musical brainchild of brothers Jesse and Louis Baker. The Norwich based duo emerged in late 2021, creating music and visual content reflecting their love for hip hop, britpop, psych and cinema. Through aliases Kenny Pleasures and Jonny Silver, the brothers project a playful perspective in their music, pulling sounds and attitudes from the likes of Damon Albarn, Beastie Boys, Tyler, The Creator and Tame Impala. Whether presenting this eclectic mix through considered, cinematic music videos, or as a raucous four-piece live band; there is an undefinable quality to PleasureInc that demands intrigue

NLL are a Brighton-based industrial/psych/grunge 3 piece. Formerly resident in Bristol, they released an album ‘Rack and Ruin’, 2 Eps and 4 singles to critical acclaim. Vocalist/bass player Charlie Beddoes was originally a founder member of 90s bands Rub Ultra and No Santa, and has played bass for many artists including Trash Palace (with Brian Molko) and more recently, Lodestar (with members of 90s rap-rockers Senser).

Following a move to Brighton in 2018, NLL took a 5-year hiatus. 2023 saw their return and a new line-up; Charlie has now been joined by Steve Collett (Rub Ultra and V8 Pack) on guitar and John Briginshaw on drums and samples.

Their new single ‘Butterflies’ is released on streaming platforms on 11th October 2024. It’s a cathartic, churning slab of noise with themes of rebirth, re-invention and retribution. They create music that provides the soundtrack to your darkest dreams, of post-apocalyptic decadence, discarded trappings of consumerism gone awry, alienation and small furry creatures with very sharp teeth.

Triple Drain - Founded in the muggy streets of Brighton are Triple Drain, three babes that have slid into the UK’s alternative rock scene. The trio draw influence from artists such as Sonic Youth, Pixies and The Fall. With powerful riffs and hypnotic hooks, this trio are ones to watch!

Full band show! Oklahoma is a hotbed of good music and no-one knows that better than the self-crowned ‘Queen of Oklahoma’ Carter Sampson, who will be touring the UK with her full band from 28 Feb to 16 March 2025. Born and raised in the central state, Sampson writes relatable and honest songs about family, love, life and historical characters. She’s released six albums with her two latest records being released on the influential Horton record label. Her last album, Gold, spent many months on the Americana Music Charts.

She tours internationally, and has had much success playing regularly in Europe and the UK: ‘I really love playing in the UK. I joke about it a lot but American audiences are generally loud and don’t listen very well – English audiences are so quiet and kind.’

Carter won first place in the Chris Austin Songwriting contest at Merlefest, NC, and has performed at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Rocky Mountain Folks Fest and the Lincoln Center in NYC as a top finalist in their respective songwriting contests.

Carter is recording her first solo live album at The Blue Door listening room in Oklahoma City this November – the album will be her seventh, and will be released in January 2025, two months before her UK tour starts.
