Bristol-based quintet Factor 50 touchdown somewhere between the boxes of Crank Wave, neo-folk and indie rock, taking inspiration from the nostalgic grit of 90s weirdo bands such as Sparklehorse and Grandaddy. Their new EP "Good News!" comes out on October 17th!!!

Horsefair:
Horsefair’s live shows seethe and boil. Scholars of post-rock and art-punk, the rising six-piece have honed sharp turns and towering swells of noise down to a science. Anchored by the haunting alto timbre of lead vocalist & saxophonist Kate Francis, Horsefair channels the unnerving power of PJ Harvey, the hypnotic chamber rock of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and the intricate math-rock edge of Mogwai.

In a single breath, the band can whip a crowd into a frenzy and then subdue them into hushed, cathedral-like stillness. Rapidly carving their place in the Bristol live circuit, a city that birthed trip hop royalty like Portishead and Massive Attack, Horsefair are fast becoming its next breakout act.

Nikita:
Nikita bring a set of original tracks rife with raw post-rock energy, and poetic lyrical imagery.

The Kruds:
Garage rock with a screw loose. Psychedelic, chaotic, and proudly unpolished.
