Line Up

Castlecombe Drive are a London-based alternative rock band blending sharp guitars, driving rhythms, and raw emotional honesty. Drawing comparisons to Nothing But Thieves, The Killers, and Badflower, their music captures the tension and resilience of young adult life. With roots across Ireland, France, and England, they bring a diverse perspective to their sound. Their upcoming third EP, produced by rock veteran Nick Tauber, marks their most focused and confident work yet, with songs built for bigger stages and wider audiences.

Griffin is an indie-folk singer-songwriter whose music blends contemporary songwriting with echoes of ancient traditions, drawing inspiration from folklore, nature, wanderlust and mysticism.

Following the release of his debut EP Honeycomb in 2022, Griffin released his first full-length album Clouds in 2025 and toured Europe that summer. His songs explore the delicate spaces between faith and doubt, order and chaos, carried by warm acoustic arrangements and intimate storytelling.

Live, Griffin creates an atmosphere somewhere between a concert and a gathering around a modern campfire, inviting audiences into songs of wandering, old stories and the search for something deeper.

Hailing from the rolling hills and fields of the Llynfi Valley of South Wales, Loafus offers a psychedelic resting place for those who wander off the road well travelled. Carried by grungy discordant guitar riffs and a soulful voice, Loaf’s music is a dreamy soundscape inspired by many different artists and styles, drifting from raw to ethereal.

Baru Sun is the indie project of singer-songwriter, producer and composer Bar Karti. Rooted in the melodic warmth of 60s and 70s rock, his music blends vintage harmonies with cinematic compositions, taking listeners on a journey through daydreams, love and fantasy. With nostalgic melodies and dreamy textures, Baru Sun creates a sound that feels like the soundtrack to a half-remembered dream.
