With accolades from BBC Radio 6 Music and MusicMap, NME describe Suffolk based 4-piece KYANOS' 'brand of soothing psychedelia perfect for fans of Tame Impala and Unknown Mortal Orchestra'. The alternative indie outfit combine unique and distinctive vocals (Sam Golding), jangly guitars (Seth Bauly), melodic bass lines (Fintan Wight) and solid, understated drums (Zach Franklin), swirling together to create a fusion of psychedelia, indie rock and jazzy soundscapes. With a diverse palette of cleverly written and constructed songs, KYANOS deliver a fresh, yet instantly familiar experience to their audiences. We don't stick to one particular sound or idea, we're constantly evolving and taking influence from a wide range of genres and this is reflected in our music.


Gabby brings her upbeat set of indie alternative to the John Peel Centre. Gabby is a 16 year old singer songwriter from Suffolk. She won BurySOUND 2019, and played a headline set in the woods at Latitude on the Thursday evening earlier this year. Gabby releases her debut single on the 25 October 'GAME', from her forthcoming EP due to be released in March 2020. 

Morgan Swann, up and coming artist hailing from Ipswich, UK. Influenced by Urban genres such as Hip Hop, Grime & RnB. Showcasing his personal life experiences throughout his music and the journey he is about to embark on. You can find him on twitter @morgann_swann or instagram @morgannswann.

Sharp-suited surefire future pop sensation Sophie Mahon brings a form of escapism and romanticism that is somewhat lacking in today's cynical 21st Century maelstrom of plastic pop. Sophie takes inspiration from her Eighties New Wave influences Roxy Music, Duran Duran and David Bowie but far from being a mere pastiche of bigger-haired times, [Sophie's] music is fresh, urgent and oddly moving - Seymour Quigley. Sophie's band (Sophie Mahon And The Ready Mades) have played various venues and festivals including Bearded Theory Festival, The Hope & Anchor, the John Peel Centre and The Hunter Club. They recently competed in BurySOUND's 2019 band competition; reaching the grand final and playing at The Apex.
