The Woodentops emerged in the mid-1980s as one of the UK’s most dynamic and inventive indie bands, blending frenetic post-punk energy with hypnotic rhythms and melodic warmth. Fronted by Rolo McGinty, their sound fused jittery acoustic strumming, propulsive percussion, and urgent vocals, capturing a raw, almost psychedelic intensity. Their 1986 debut Giant remains a cult classic, packed with infectious, danceable grooves and emotionally charged songwriting. Expanding into electronic textures with Wooden Foot Cops on the Highway (1988), they flirted with house and ambient influences. The Woodentops’ genre-blurring approach helped shape the indie-dance crossover that exploded in the late ’80s.

With their eclectic, danceable grooves and astute, hilarious put-downs of modern Britain, Getdown Services are steadily carving out a name for themselves. The new EP ‘Crumbs’ sees the duo weave slacker-rock, funk, indie and dance into an engrossingly entertaining sound brimming with infectious hooks and acerbic wit. Steadily building momentum over the past 18 months with balls-to-the-wall live performances, their highly lauded debut album ‘Crisps', and prestigious shows with Pip Blom, Fat Dog, The Bug Club, Goldie Lookin' Chain, Donny Benet, and Personal Trainer, the band ready themselves for their biggest ever headline tour this autumn. Off the back of extensive BBC 6Music support from the likes of Craig Charles, Huw Stephens, and Cerys Matthews, and armed with an arsenal of red-hot hits, Getdown Services look set to gobble the world up, one crumb at a time.

Real Farmer is an idiosyncratic (post)punk four-piece from Groningen. What started out as a group of friends writing punk songs together, grew into a close-knit band who take influences from the intensity that drives contemporary punk and blues. The lyrics cover themes of loneliness, heartache and finding your place in the world. Debut album Compare What’s There finds its members concocting fast-paced, driving songs with wiry riffs, propelling drums, and winding melodies, where angular punk songs alternate with melancholic post-punk.

Boom, Bap, Boop, and Beep: these are just some of the many words to describe the frantic powerhouse that is Still Me. Jazzy tunes, infectious grooves and silly dudes are just some of what to expect from this south London based band.

Already hitting 2025 hard with their single ‘Hero Worship’ and playing a host of shows in and around London, they’re keeping the ball rolling with single releases and an EP in the oven ready to come out to fulfil all sorts of musical appetites. With their live show ranging from funky goofy goodness to intimate emotional rollercoasters, they strike the balance between humour and tragedy so perfectly that you can guarantee Goldilocks is eating that porridge. What you’re left with is a musical experience that leaves you feeling ‘just right’!
