the north (UK)

"fast-rising raw indie rock band"

For fans of: The Strokes / Dinosaur Jr. / Wunderhorse

Bio provided by artist:

Formed in February 2025, the north are the latest breakout from Leeds’ fervent indie scene, boasting a live show that outshines bands with years more experience. Fronted by singer and guitarist Billy Memphis, the group have spent the past year building a reputation as one of the UK’s most exciting new acts, though they remain refreshingly uninterested in hype. After moving from Scarborough to Leeds at 16 in search of culture, Billy immersed himself in the city’s music scene, eventually forming the band alongside drummer Sian Keates, guitaristKobi Griggs and bassist Macca Boylan. Freshly signed to Communion Records, home to Wunderhorse and Catfish & The Bottlemen, the band have released a new EP produced by Kev Jones, known for his work on Wunderhorse’s Cub. With a heart-on-sleeve approach and fierce authenticity, the north cut through a landscape crowded with pretenders.

Part-Time Model (UK)

"somewhere between grunge, jazz, and modern psychedelia"

For fans of: Nilüfer Yanya / Honeyglaze / Radiohead / Madison Cunningham

Bio provided by artist:
Part-Time Model have built a reputation as one of the most compelling new bands to emerge from Leeds in recent years. Formed of Lucy Tessier (Vocals), Rafael Mendes-Browne (Bass), Charlie Wilberforce (Guitar) & Ben Smith (Drums), the four-piece have drawn growing audiences through word of mouth and live alone.

Part-Time Model inhabit a kind of musical unease. Their sound sits at the intersection of grunge, jazz, and modern psychedelia, echoing the off-centre songwriting of Nilüfer Yanya and Honeyglaze while hinting at the expansive sonics of Radiohead and Madison Cunningham.

The bands’ tenacious approach to live and refined musicality saw a sold out debut headline at Hyde Park Book Club, before going on to sell out venues in Hull and Sheffield. As well performing at Humber Street Sesh, P-TM have shared stages with the likes of Welly, Junk and Oliver Pinder.

In 2026 the band were honoured to be selected for the Nell Smith Memorial Fund, awarded to support recording and development.

Cordelia Gartside (UK)

"a powerful blend of poetic lyricism, post-rock intensity"

For fans of: Big Thief / Radiohead / Mary in the Junkyard

Bio provided by artist:

Cordelia Gartside is an alt-rock artist whose songs carry the tension of a Lynch scene: the quiet, then the collapse. With her live band, she builds uneasy atmospheres from distorted guitars and cathartic vocals. Her shows are rhythmically agile, melodically sophisticated, and emotionally affecting, earning comparisons to PJ Harvey, Radiohead and Mitski from critics and fans.

2026 has been a breakthrough year, with sets at Liverpool Sound City and The Great Escape, airplay on BBC 6 Music’s Introducing Mixtape with Emily Pilbeam, and a BBC Introducing LiveLounge session. It’s all building toward her debut EP, out via State51 in November, the first full statement of the immersive, lofi world she’s been creating.
