LYLA NOVA

Lyla Nova is the blueprint of fresh rock energy bursting onto the scene. Think Avril Lavigne and Hayley Williams meets Joan Jett with a modern hard rock/pop sound. Given her age, her raw aggression paired with gentle highs make her one to watch!

ISLA RICO

Isla Rico are the UK indie band bringing sun-soaked Britpop, soaring melodies and high summer energy to every stage they play. Fresh from a sold-out performance at BBC's Jodie Bryant's Discover Live at The Grace, Islington, the band have recently completed a UK and EU acoustic tour and return to The Grace on 27 November to support The Publics. Their latest single, “Waterhole,” is BBC Introducing's Track of the Week, with plenty more new music on the horizon. Catch Isla Rico now, while you still can.

DREW THOMAS

Drew Thomas crafts coming-of-age indie anthems through a modern lens, inspired by the music, culture, and nostalgia of the early 2000s. After honing his live show in intimate UK venues, he has gone on to perform at Reading and Leeds, The Great Escape, Y Not Festival, and Sweden's Future Echoes, alongside sold-out headline shows in London and Nottingham. Following BBC Introducing support for “Boys Aren't Supposed to Cry,” Drew's new offering “Soda Friends,” is a vibrant ode to fleeting connections, restless nights, and finding meaning in unexpected places.
