The rambunctious Celtic folk of The Pogues, the storytelling charm of The View, the lush pop harmonies of Teenage Fanclub, the jangly delicacy of the Smiths, the yearning of a classic Oasis B-side and a Scottish brogue as defiant as the Proclaimers... Brògeal have it all – and makes it their own.
A bubbling cultural cauldron set to boiling point, the sound overflows with accordion, banjo, bouzouki, mandolin and perky penny whistle, where ancient folk tradition meets an indie Gen Z sensibility and laughs, sings and dances in the face of 21st century darkness.
With a wealth of standout singles and EPs under their belt, the folk-punk-indie-pop five-piece have toured relentlessly throughout the UK and Ireland, gathered ecstatic fans, and supported the likes of Paolo Nutini, The Mary Wallopers and The Lathums. Brògeal’s debut album, Tuesday Paper Club, will be released in October.

The trailblazing six-piece behind Borstal, Deck Of Cards & 26 Ghosts have spent the last decade defying genres with their blend of rap, grime, punk, indie, psychedelic rock and more. Monster Florence comprises vocalists Dream Mclean, Wallace Rice & Alex Osiris, joined by musicians Tom Donovan, Cameron Morrell & Jonny Poole.
Their latest album, Master System, arrived in February 2023 to critical acclaim. That year saw the group tour the UK with award-winning star Professor Green, concluding with an epic support slot at London’s iconic O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire. They then topped off the year by taking Master System on the road with The Last Thing You Need Tour, a sold-out UK headline tour that ended the year with a bang.
Monster Florence plans to follow up the success with releases that push the boundaries of genre, bring about discourse, and create impact on the music industry in a way that has never been done before.

Born in North West London, Natanya has always considered music her second language. Her pursuit of music culminated in her debut tape, Sorrow At Sunrise (2023), featuring confessional writing set against a rich sonic tapestry. Written as six diary entries, the tape details the first tastes of independence during her first year studying English Literature at University College London, all while juggling a budding musical career.
The singer-songwriter-producer released her new EP Feline’s Return via Human
Re-Sources in June, marking a bold evolution in her sound as she embraces a more classic pop-driven sound while building on the foundations laid in her debut EP.
Natanya has been featured in Wonderland, Clash, Metal, and GUAP Magazines, and toured with FLO in 2023 and Destin Conrad on his EU/UK tour in 2024. Her talent has captured the attention and adoration of a growing cult fan base, which is sure to expand as her musical arsenal continues to develop.

YES AND MAYBE are a Scottish-French duo that blend instinct and precision to craft music that feels both familiar and unpredictable. Meeting online, the French multi-instrumentalist ‘Yes’ and the Scottish producer/vocalist ‘Maybe’ create songs grounded in introspection, storytelling and the indie sounds of the 2000s.
Embracing their remote collaboration, their debut album Train to Nowhere (2025) was written and produced entirely over WhatsApp. It captures the essence of the indie 2000s, acting as a true reflection of their shared vision. The result is music that feels both familiar and unpredictable, blending elements of their diverse influences into something entirely their own.
YES AND MAYBE isn’t about fitting into a genre or following a formula—it’s about capturing the essence, trusting the process, and knowing that if it moves them, it will move others too.
