'Sorcha is a Bristol-based singer-songwriter who blends experimental acoustic folk with honest, introspective songwriting. Their music explores themes of memory, nature and relationships, using a mix of acoustic guitar, subtle field recordings, and interesting instrumental textures. With influences from artists such as Billie Marten, Adrianne Lenker, and Haley Heynderickx, Sorcha creates music that’s both intimate and boundary-pushing.
Their debut EP, Swimming Backwards, is set for release soon and offers a fresh take on folk music with an experimental edge. Each track capturing a different emotional landscape, presenting a new perspective on familiar sounds'.

'Hibiscus are an up and coming neo-soul duo, based in Bristol. After meeting at college in Exeter, Eva and Lily have built a strong musical collaboration, strengthened by their palpable synergy and close friendship. Likened to artists such as Eloise, Cleo Sol and Nai Palm, their wholesome and tender songwriting draws from their experiences as young women navigating adulthood.'

'Hum Drum is a Bristol based five piece band that originated through a series of encounters in the city's vivid jam scene. With an iridescent blend of jazzy rhythms and melancholic melodies, Hum Drum explores not only lyrical concepts of emotion and hardship but also concepts of poetic nonsense.'
