Taf Royale
Taf Royale is a South West London-born, Norwich‑based artist whose sound moves fluidly between neo‑soul, hip‑hop, grime and R&B, blending smooth, melodic sensibility with sharp, confrontational lyricism. Inspired by Fugees, The Roots and Travis Scott, his genre‑spanning debut EP All Things In Time marks the early rise of an artist driven by global ambition and constant refinement.
Riya Lue
Riya Lue is a soulful singer‑songwriter who has been immersed in music from an early age, performing, writing and finding her voice in the studio while still a child. Now 22, she pairs emotive vocals with deeply personal songwriting, crafting honest, feeling‑first music as she collaborates with leading industry names ahead of her debut release this year.
Currls
Formed in Brighton in 2017, Currls have carved out a reputation as one of the UK’s most electrifying underground acts. Blending the grit of garage rock with searing punk energy and sludgy pop undertones, the trio deliver a sound that feels both chaotic and deeply cathartic.
DH Temple
DH Temple is the solo project of Dominic Temple, a used car salesman turned local cult favourite, delivering wry, character‑driven songwriting backed live by a five‑piece band. Having shared stages with niche legends including Jim E. Brown, Vieira & the Silvers and Congratulations, DH Temple is building momentum towards a landmark 2026 filled with new releases and standout performances.
May Gabriels
May Gabriels is a soft R&B and pop singer crafting warm, soulful songs that soundtrack long summer days, blending smooth vocals with feel‑good, sun‑soaked melodies.
Dr DJs Dad Dancing Dispensary
The Dispensary is a high‑energy, 40‑minute dance workshop that invites anyone, regardless of age, gender or ability, to learn classic moves and embrace the joy of “dancing like a dad” with confidence, humour and zero pressure.
The Mink
The Mink are an East Anglian neo‑psychedelic band formed in 2023, born from chance encounters across the local scene. Their sound blends dreamy atmospheres, groove‑led rhythms, riff‑heavy jams and flute‑flecked textures into a vivid, free‑flowing live experience.
Congratulations
Congratulations are a hall‑of‑mirrors party troupe delivering chaotic, dance‑driven noise with equal parts sugar‑rush hooks and feral intensity. Their taut, fizzing guitars and caustic electronics collide with huge fuzzed‑out bass and pounding grooves, creating a dizzying, colour‑coded live spectacle designed to move bodies and scramble senses.
Guilty Pleasures
Guilty Pleasures began as a segment on Sean’s BBC London radio show before exploding into a hugely influential club night, proudly celebrating pop music once dismissed as uncool. By putting artists like Queen, Dolly Parton, Fleetwood Mac and Toto front and centre, Guilty Pleasures helped rewrite club culture in the 2000s, attracting devoted DJ guests including Jarvis Cocker, Saint Etienne and Terry Hall, and cementing pop as something to be celebrated, not sneered at.
