With roots in Venezuela, France and New Zealand, Calva Louise combine their influences to make waves in the UK music scene, with their own brand of alt-rock that has been setting festivals and venues all over the world alight.

An undisputed god of the festival scene, campfire folk singer Beans on Toast has done just about every festival the UK has produced and is now making his own festival, in the form of the Foolhardy Folk Festival in Nottingham. We spoke to him about creating his own event, Glastonbury, and his opinions on 2000trees.

Joe Appleford may very well be one of the hottest properties in the UK music industry in the next few months. His own blend of rock music in the style of a heavier Queens of the Stone Age could set the UK music scene alight.

Hot Milk are one of the hottest properties in alternative music. The band are seemingly destined for arenas, with their new release even being written with the big stage in mind. Will 'The King and Queen of Gasoline' bring the arena stages a step closer?

Conjurer are one of the UK’s best metal outfits that you may not have heard of. Their 2018 debut 'Mire' added a sound that the extreme metal scene has never heard before. Years of touring and perfecting their craft have passed, and 'Páthos' is the result. So, has it been worth the wait?

When UK metalcore giants Architects released the dates for their first UK arena tour, it was fair to say that arenas have been a long time coming for the Brighton band. Their 2021 effort 'For Those That Wish To Exist' took the band to the next level and had songs that were blatantly made for the arena setting, so how did this translate on a Tuesday night at Nottingham arena?

Leeds had turned out in a sold-out crowd at the Stylus to experience some of the best modern day punk music there is. Find out what happened at the show here.
