LOCKS are a ‘Waits-infused’ folk band described by Chris Hawkins of BBC 6 MUSIC as 'the dark angels of graveyard blues'. The string-based quartet conjure ballads and shanties with a hint of the macabre joining the sheer enjoyment of words and sound with a wonderful playfulness. Darker undercurrents combine with fables, folk tales and urban myths. LOCKS have garnered extensive radio play and major press coverage. There is a new EP -‘Tall Tales’ out in April 2023.
Subject To Change https://youtu.be/K4cf3ba0yAQ
Hi, we’re Subject to Change, a new band from Northwest London. We believe in the power of music in bringing people together, telling stories and illustrating the world around us. We hope you enjoy our set of original music.

They formed officially in 2021 after a number of years playing in a variety of bands and projects across the UK and southern France, and that year, they released a self-produced album, 21=2a+7, which has since gone on to have plays on BBC Introducing and Amazing Radio.

Leon Maddy is multi-award wining harmonicist who has graced the stage of the Wembley Arena, MOBOS and The Mumford and Sons festival. He began playing the instrument after his aunt gave him a harmonica at age 14 with a harmonica tutorial book and video. He then started to teach himself the instrument and began applying the harmonica to different styles of genres such as Jazz, Hip Hop and Rock. This has ultimately led him to over 200+ performances and he was also a featured artist on the Mercury Music Prize nominated album 'ESKA' as well as a performance on the online platform TEd Talks. He continues to compose, record his own material and perform around the UK and overseas.
Vincent Christ https://youtu.be/jPMfVj-i7Fg

Vincent’s electrifying model of post-punk delivers in intensity and urgency. Propulsive drums and feeling-first melodies are met with lyrics that are at once sardonic, poetic and oneiric. Vincent Christ is praxis, his prolific output and chameleonic style are beguiling. New EP ‘Galore’ presents VC at his most iconoclastic.
Baby https://youtu.be/giDVN1f7JqQ
Started in his childhood bedroom on a busted old hand-me-down MacBook, Luke began making tunes under the name “BABY” during lockdown in an attempt to stay sane amongst the monotony of working-class suburban life. Inspired by the scrapbook mentality of music and art from British counter-culture, BABY encapsulates a range of genres - blending them into their own unique and captivating concoction of kitchen sink storytelling and D.I.Y beats.
