Line Up

Indie and alt from SW England

The Kabins are: Todd Gilronan (Vocals), Elliott Plance (Guitar), Freddie Clarke (Bass), Kieran Reading (Guitar) and Felix Randall (Drums).

Emerson are a four piece group from Fleet, Hampshire. Playing jubilant, 60s inspired indie rock, the group consists of lead singer and guitarist, George Atkin, guitarist, Alex Groom, bassist, Will Lynch and drummer, Matt Cairns.

With a major influence from 60s and 70s pop music, a focus on songcraft, and a sound reminiscent of indie bands of the noughties; Emerson present a nostalgic, while refreshing sound, that’s slowly but surely been swooning audiences across the country the past year.

The release of their esteemed debut EP, ‘Good Man’ - gaining commendation from the likes of Issey Cartlidge of The Molotovs - and a handful of propitious support slots (Stone, FEET) set Emerson in good stead for a prosperous year to come.

The Rizz are a punchy five-piece rock ’n’ roll outfit from Southeast London, blending unmistakably British attitude with modern urgency. Known for their relentless live energy and infectious hooks, they deliver a sound that nods to the past while hitting hard in the present. Cutting their teeth on the capital’s grassroots circuit, they earned their reputation the hard way—through sweaty rooms, late-night sets, and a relentless work ethic that quickly set them apart. That graft paid off with a coveted Saturday slot at the Isle of Wight Festival, marking a breakout moment that firmly put them on the map. Drawing inspiration from the swagger of The Clash, the melody of Arctic Monkeys, and the raw energy of early Oasis, The Rizz have continued to sharpen their edge. Adding Camp Bestival to a growing list of highlights, they’ve built a reputation for electrifying live performances, winning over festival-goers, critics, and industry tastemakers alike. Momentum has gathered through word of mouth, driven by raw energy, hook-laden songs, and a style that feels authentic and unforced. With a new single set to drop this spring and headline dates on the horizon, The Rizz are poised to make 2026 their breakthrough year. Hungry, rising, and ready to break through, they stand on the brink of something special. Keep your eyes open and your ears tuned—this is only the beginning.
