DYGL

Japanese rock band DYGL (pronounced 'day-glo') are the four-piece alt-rock band has landed features in NME, Japan Times, The Line of Best Fit, and Headstuff. The band has toured globally, playing shows in China, the USA, the UK (supporting Bad Suns), and Europe (supporting The Mystery Lights). They have also performed at a wide range of music festivals, including Le Magnifique (France), Treefort Music Fest, SXSW (USA), Concrete & Grass (China), Summer Sonic, Fuji Rock Festival (Japan), Maho Rasop (Thailand), and DMZ (Korea). Additionally, the group has opened for indie rock legends Franz Ferdinand, Pavement, Beach Fossils, and Fontaines D.C..

DYGL was formed in 2012 when members Nobuki Akiyama (vocals & guitar), Kohei Kamoto (guitar), Yotaro Kachi (bass), and Yosuke Shimonaka (guitar) were studying at Meiji Gakuin University. The group has already released five studio albums. After the release of their first EP in 2015, the band collaborated with Albert Hammond Jr. (guitarist for The Strokes) and Gus Oberg, who produced their 2017 debut album, Say Goodbye to Memory Den. This was followed by Songs of Innocence & Experience (2019), A Daze In A Haze (2021), Thirst (2022), and Who's in the House? (2025)

After exploring a diverse range of musical styles, their sound is now shifting towards a more raw and physical direction, influenced by Television, Talking Heads, The Kinks, Led Zeppelin, and Black Sabbath. Their latest album, Who's in the House?, was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Stephanie "Slozzaa" Loza.

Kontours

Heavy bluesy riffs with a relentless groove. Kontours have featured in NME's Radar Section and chalked up support slots with bands such as Cage The Elephant, The Enemy and The Subways. Currently recording their first set of demos that will be coming soon. 

Muthers

Muthers are a 4-piece group from in and around Erdington, blending the groove of the 60's and 70's with sounds of the 21st century. What started off as a 3-piece featuring: Jake Parker (drums), Jake Lowe (Bass) and Emilio Blasich (Guitar/Vocals) Muthers, drew inspiration from the power trios of the 'golden age' of music. After a few performances, a desire for a bigger sound resulted in the addition of Lewis Green (guitar) which, in turn, elevated the whole Muthers experience.
