Line Up

Raised in Nottingham, singer/songwriter Drew Thomas leads the charge of DIY rock musicians making waves on the unsigned circuit through hard work and powerful song-writing. 
 Taking inspiration from the likes of The Killers, Fleetwood Mac and the intimacy of Bon Iver, Drew’s knack for writing arena sized choruses and nostalgic lyrics steals the listener’s attention immediately, merging passionate vocals and emotional soundscapes with a darker twist; spilling tales of rejection, broken relationships and addiction. 
 Drew’s new offering Trying to Be You is all about learning to love yourself, accepting your sexuality and conquering the toxic habit of comparing yourself to everyone else. 
 “I’ve always been the kind of artist to write what I live. It’s so easy to see where other people are going and lose track of how far you’ve come. My music is all about coming to terms with who you are and shouting it at the top of your lungs.”

French born and London-based DIVIANNE is a silky voice charged with deep-rooted emotions. Her obsession for singing and storytelling started at a young age, joining a kids choir at her local Opera House in the South of France. In 2019, Divianne moved to London to pursue music, performing at multiple open mics and small venues accross London. Her long-awaited debut EP 'Peace of Mind' was released in 2021, an intimate body of work recorded during lockdown in the South France. This year, she released her first self-produced track 'Blurry Lights', recorded at The Roundhouse in London and supported by Amazing Radio UK and USA.

'The gift of an honest, authentic song; perfect, honey-like vocals that never let you down; a soft, poignant sound that helps the human soul healing' - YMX

'Divianne differentiates herself from everything indie pop we've heard before. Peace of Mind is proof that she's ready to shine' - Indieoclock

'DIVIANNE is just amazing, check out the vibe of Peace of Mind. A complete collection, loaded with emotion and talent' - Roadie Music

Multi-talented Southampton-born Rosie Smith moved to Glastonbury ,Somerset with her family when she was ten following the offer of a sports scholarship at Millfield School. Now at 22, Rosie is releasing her first album and is already busy compiling material for her second. This first album is pure Rosie Smith, likening the pull of emotions to the power of waves, rain and water. She describes this album as a kind of self-help guide for struggling young adults, covering love, friendship, upheaval and grief, the lyrics conjuring accessible metaphors from nature to describe each experience. The songs are both personal and universal, inspired by people watching, traditional storytelling and her own life experiences. Rosie’s life so far has been peripatetic and unsettled, involving not just the sudden death of a beloved mentor, but 13 house moves and a difficult time at school. Undaunted, she has packaged her responses to this bumpy ride into a sophisticated, mature and complex suite of songs which belie her relative youth. Now, supported by her guitarist, Rosie has recently completed her first live tour with Lawson, playing at venues nationwide as well as to a packed O2 London. The tour was a huge success, and another series of dates are in the offing for 2022.

The Mounts are an indie punk band from South West London. Their lineup includes Jake Mills on vocals and guitar, Jack Broadbent on bass and Steve Franks on drums. Their eclectic heavy sounds draws influence from the mod punk scene of the 1970’s, grunge and britpop of the 1990’s and early 00’s indie.
