A new project from Aaron Fletcher & Tim Parkin, card carrying members of the musical kaleidoscope that is The Bees, they bowled Heavenly over with their recent white-label seven, ‘Love Said (Let’s Go)’, a track Sounds Of The Universe record shop described as a ‘killer infectious soul pop tune’.

The seven sold out in 48 hours off the back of a building buzz and Heavenly quickly signed the band – “We only popped in for a 45 and ended up signing the group,” said Jeff from the label.

Aaron from the band added – “ We’ve been big fans of Heavenly ever since hearing Flowered Up’s “Weekender” as young teenagers…a truly cool label, proper music people. When we were looking for a home for the new project and heard that Jeff was a fan it was a no-brainer , the vibe was totally right.”

Dream Wife is more than just a band, Dream Wife is a way of life. You’ll struggle to find a tighter knit trio than the fabulously fierce Rakel Mjöll (vocals), Alice Go (guitar) and Bella Podpadec (bass), whose art school roots have informed their all-encompassing aesthetic and sharp eye for detail. This band aren’t just about bashing out insanely good guitar bangers that conjure up visions of Blondie by way of Bikini Kill, ESG and Pat Benatar – though on the songs that make up their debut album, out early 2018, they certainly do that too – they’re about creating a wonderful world to dive into headfirst and everyone is invited along for the ride.

Wasuremono - 忘れ物

English translation “something left behind"

On other days a four piece Indie, Krautrock, Dream-pop band from Bradford-on-Avon, South West England.

Formed in 2013 by lead singer William Southward through his love of producing and recording cinematic soundscapes.

Their debut album ‘Something Left Behind’ and last EP ‘Kaboom’, have been championed by the likes of BBC6 Music’s Steve Lamacq and Lauren Laverne, with songs featured heavily on the 6 music playlists, recommend shows and ‘best of 2017’.

Their ever developing show incorporates intricate guitar styles and soundscapes, four part harmonies, rythmic drums and synths.  

The band were recently invited to do a live session at Maida Vale which aired on Steve Lamacqs show on BBC 6 Music this year.

“a strong talent for songwriting” – The Independent
“an impish return riddled with superb wit, driven by pop ambition” Clash “relatable slacker rock that’s full of charm” – The Line of Best Fit
“Allum is as sure a thing as you can count on in this age of uncertainty” – Tiny Mix Tapes

Loaded with pulsating hooks and enigmatic tenacious vocals, Annabel Allum oozes charisma and showcases an inept ability to marry folk-style storytelling with snarling fuzzy indie. The Guildford-based singer-songwriter has been backed across tastemaker platforms as one of the most vitally sarcastic voices in the indie scene, with praise coming from key press voices in FADER, DIY and The Line of Best Fit as well as on the airwaves. ‘Beat the Birds’, taken from 2018’s ‘Sorry I’m Not Perceptible’ EP, found its place on the Radio 1 BBC Introducing Playlist, Huw Stephens chose it as his Introducing Track of the Week, and earned her a spot at BBC Music’s The Biggest Weekend in Swansea.

Annabel has performed a number of prestigious slots in the last twelve months, most notably supporting the iconic Beth Ditto across her UK/EU tour at the back end of 2017, as well as sharing the stage with Nadine Shah, Blaenavon and more. Sets at The Great Escape, Live at Leeds and SXSW last year brought her to wider international attention, whilst a fiery performance at her biggest headline show to date at London’s Camden Assembly in February signalled a real statement of intent. With performances lined up at Boardmasters, Siren Festival, Neverworld and Reading Festival this summer, and her first UK headline toured locked in for the Autumn, the future looks extremely bright for Allum.
