Mandrake Handshake
Formed in Oxford, hypnotic psych-collective Mandrake Handshake were christened after a song by The Brian Jonestown Massacre; incorporating their influences of krautrock, funk, Japanese animation and Latin pastoral poetry to create a unique brand of 'Flowerkraut' that vividly defines their sound.

October Drift
Formed at the start of 2014, October Drift may be a little known and mysterious project at the moment, but they wear their heart on their musical sleeves. They’ve been digesting a stock of Smashing Pumpkins, The National and My Bloody Valentine records, constantly rehearsing and playing under the radar shows – which have gained them a word of mouth popularity. Continuing to shun social media, appearing clandestine behind ambiguous placards with mysterious balaclava-clad characters appearing through the cities they play, the band continue to communicate with their fans purely one-on-one.

Brodie Milner
Combining intelligent lyricism with intricate melodies, Brodie Milner's music feels nuanced, evocative, and a bit too sad for a summer's party. Listeners can expect to hear influences from the likes of Ben Howard, Big Thief, Fontaines D.C, Sharon Van Etten, Bob Dylan and Father John Misty amongst others.

Pit Pony
With a rawness that owes influence to the North East coast they call home, Pit Pony are a caustic, fuzz-rock five-piece from Tyneside. The band create an adrenaline-fuelled soundtrack for singer Jackie to explore tales of political ineptitude, mental health, motherhood and failed relationships.
