The Skinner Brothers don’t fuck about. Formed in 2018, the Skinners are a riotous, rebellion-tinged British band that quickly gained notoriety when Carl Barat invited them to support The Libertines’ UK tour. The band has since toured with The Streets and Kasabian. An indie band with an arena sound, The Skinner Brothers tell stories of football, drugs, booze, sex and love, while their unforgettable, blistering live shows continue to shake things up on London’s scene.

With their new album, If I Never Know You Like This Again, SOAK has finally shaken the hangover of their starry debut Before We Forgot How To Dream, and the pressures that came with it, hiding in the wings of their ambitious follow up album, Grim Town. Having come up through BBC introducing at the tender age of 15 before signing to Rough Trade Records as well as winning the RTE Choice Music Prize, The Northern Irish Music Prize and the youngest ever Mercury Prize nominee, SOAK has again and again been described as ‘the voice of a generation.’ Showing from a young age an intensely artistic awareness of the poetry of memory, Bridie would incessantly photograph and video everything, documenting and organising the material so it was always there for them to revisit. ”I always want to remember exactly how I felt at a certain moment.” Bridie’s lyrics move through the songs almost as effortlessly as they sing them, and the songs when read, read like poetry. With this album Bridie is, as the title suggests, freezing time in the pursuit of truth: capturing their life into existence. In the world of ‘If I Never Know You Like This Again’, a life is lived only because it's remembered.

Often compared to Coldplay and Travis, Turin Brakes are a English duo inspired by folk and progressive rock hailing from Balham, London. Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian were friends in elementary school and decided to try out for the cathedral choir because it would give them the chance to perform in front of the Queen of England, which they eventually did. The two aspiring musicians, influenced by a unique range of artists including Sebadoh, Truman's Water, Prince, and the Black Crowes, formed a band and recorded their freewheeling jam sessions. One of those sessions became their first release, The Door EP, which was released on Anvil in 1999. The State of Things EP followed the next year on the Source label. Turin Brakes expanded into a full band and moved up to appearances at the Reading and Leeds festivals. A third U.K.-only EP, Fight or Flight, was released later in 2000, as the band was opening for the likes of Kathryn Williams, Doves, and Lowgold. The debut Turin Brakes full-length, The Optimist LP, was released in 2001 through Astralwerks. Arriving in 2003, the successful Ether Song brought the group more fans, and was followed by the more polished Jackinabox two years later. Teaming with producer Ethan Johns, Turin Brakes began work on their fourth studio album in early 2007, and while the group had to take a break in recording after Paridjanian and his wife celebrated the birth of their daughter, Dark on Fire was still released in the fall of that year. In 2010, Turin Brakes returned to their melodic folk-inflected roots with the album Outbursts, their first release for the noted U.K. indie label Cooking Vinyl. Two years later, Knights released the solo album If Not Now When. In 2013, Turin Brakes reunited for their sixth studio album, We Were Here, followed by extensive touring in Europe and the U.K. and an appearance at the South by Southwest Music Conference in Austin, Texas. In late 2015, Turin Brakes announced they had emerged from Rockfield Studios in Wales with a new studio album; titled Lost Property, it was released in February 2016. The group supported the LP with an 18-month tour that covered the U.K., Europe, and Australia. Once they returned home, Turin Brakes soon returned to the studio, and their ninth album, Invisible Storm, was released in January 2018.

Built on the solid, classic rock foundation of three-part harmonies and dual guitar leads, Canada's the Sheepdogs blend Southern boogie rock, groove-based psychedelia, and bluesy barroom swagger into a modern rock & roll revival. Based out of the Saskatchewan city of Saskatoon, the band features the talents of Ewan Currie (vocals, guitar), Jimmy Bowskill (guitar), Ryan Gullen (bass), and Sam Corbett (drums), plus Ewan's brother Shamus on brass and keyboards. The group released three full-length independent albums (Trying to Grow [2006], Big Stand [2008], and Learn & Burn [2010]) before appearing on the cover of Rolling Stone in August 2011 after winning the magazine’s “Choose the Cover” competition. The hard-touring band released a new EP, Five Easy Pieces, later that year, followed by their eponymous fourth studio album in 2012. In July 2015, the band issued the single "Downtown" in anticipation of the release of their fifth long player, Future Nostalgia, later that October. Changing Colours, the band's sixth studio effort, followed in 2018, and featured the single "I've Got a Hole Where My Heart Should Be".

GZA, aka the Genius, was the most cerebral MC in the Wu-Tang Clan, as well as perhaps the most acclaimed. His cool, precise flow and intricate, literate rhymes weren't as theatrical as Method Man or Ol' Dirty Bastard, the two biggest commercial stars to spring from the collective. But among hip-hop aficionados, GZA was revered for his flawless technique and lyrical dexterity, and was considered by many to be the best pure rapper in the entire Clan

Singer-songwriter, producer and guitarist, edbl, is on track to become one of the UK’s most prolific collaborators. Only two years into his musical project, edbl, real name Ed Black, has released music with more than 25 artists. That’s quite a feat, and he’s only just getting started.

With spins from BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Jamz Supernova and BBC Radio 2’s Jo Whiley, as well as a guest mix for BBC Introducing London, Chester-born, London-based edbl has been quietly building a name for himself as a musical maverick and one to watch. Completely independent until now and releasing via his own label, edbl recordings, Ed’s mellow beats have amassed over 20 million streams and enjoyed global editorial support. 

With his roots as a session musician, Ed strives to keep his sound as live as possible. Aside from the drums, everything you hear on a track - from the keys and the guitar to the trumpet - will be live instruments. The result is a free-flowing pool of textured sounds, each collaboration teeming with natural synergy.

Named after French painter Jean Dubuffet's definition of outsider art -- art by prisoners, loners, the mentally ill, and other marginalized people, and made without thought to imitation or presentation -- Art Brut make brilliantly simple, cleverly stupid art-punk. Upon their arrival in the early 2000s, Art Brut were tagged by NME as part of the "Art Wave" scene that also included Franz Ferdinand and Bloc Party, but they stood out from their contemporaries thanks to frontman Eddie Argos' enthusiastic spoken-sung vocals and witty insights on pop music, pop culture, and relationships. On rawer albums like 2005's debut Bang Bang Rock & Roll, as well as more polished ones such as 2011's Brilliant! Tragic! and 2018's Wham! Bang! Pow! Let's Rock Out!, Argos' one-of-a-kind viewpoint was the heart and soul of Art Brut's music.
