IDLES
Formed in Bristol in 2009, IDLES are widely recognised as one of the most electrifying, boundary-pushing bands working today. With two UK #1 albums—including 2024’s TANGK—they’ve climbed from underground favourites into a globally resonant, GRAMMY-nominated powerhouse. TANGK, produced by Nigel Godrich (Radiohead, The Smile, Beck), Kenny Beats (Denzel Curry, Vince Staples, Geese) and the band’s own Mark Bowen (who has also produced the forthcoming Florence + The Machine record), earned three GRAMMY nominations (Best Rock Album, Best Rock Song, and Best Rock Performance for “Gift Horse”) and drew widespread acclaim, including twenty-one 4★ UK reviews.
The TANGK campaign included a transcendent secret show at London’s Village Underground, a viral AI-deepfake video for “Grace” (reimagining Coldplay’s “Yellow”), and a seminal performance of “Gift Horse” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Their UK tour sold out fully—including two nights at Alexandra Palace, two at Birmingham’s O2 Academy, and three at Manchester’s O2 Apollo—before culminating in two monumental sold-out hometown shows in August at Bristol’s Queen Square, the first major music events at the venue in over two decades.
The band’s reach now extends truly worldwide. In their recent U.S. run, they headlined Forest Hills Stadium in New York— a statement of the band’s growing international stature. And at Glastonbury, IDLES delivered a powerful headline set on Glastonbury’s Other Stage, during which Banksy chose that moment to unveil an inflatable migrant boat carrying dummy passengers—a striking art intervention that became an international news story.
Beyond live shows, IDLES composed and performed the original soundtrack for Oscar-nominated director Darren Aronofsky’s Caught Stealing, marking their first foray into major film scoring. Meanwhile, frontman Joe Talbot expanded his creative voice through his new podcast Oh Gatekeeper with Joe Talbot, a candid series featuring guests like Danny Brown, Julian Casablancas, Peaches and others — a platform for exploring art, identity, and the inner life of an artist.
TANGK follows their 2021 critically lauded CRAWLER, which earned IDLES their first two GRAMMY nominations, and builds on the phenomenal impact they’ve had since the incendiary 2017 debut Brutalism — a journey marked by sold-out shows at iconic venues, an Ivor Novello Award win, and BRIT and Mercury Prize nominations.
THREE DAYS GRACE
After surprising Three Days Grace fans during a performance in Nashville with the band’s original singer Adam Gontier, the band has now announced the official return of Gontier to vocals, with Matt Walst remaining a lead vocalist as well. The esteemed rock veterans let fans in early on the shocking announcement, teasing a video across social media of Gontier and Walst linking up at the studio. Further details about new music and touring plans will be forthcoming.
On the reunion, Adam Gontier shares “I feel like it’s been seamless, better than we were expecting. It’s like we got back in a room together and picked up where we left off. We have been friends for so long it’s kind of natural to get back in the room together.”
Matt Walst echoes and adds “It’s been so much fun and inspiring making this record. Combining over 20 years of Three Days Grace and doing something that no band has ever done. I’m excited for the fans to hear it!”
Since 2003, Three Days Grace has staked a spot amongst the hard rock vanguard, breaking records, toppling charts, and moving millions of units worldwide. Overall the band has eighteen #1 records at Mediabase Active Rock and seventeen #1s at Billboard/BDS Active Rock. The band has been nominated multiple times for “Best Rock Album” at the Juno Awards in addition to multiple nominations for “Rock Song of the Year” and “Rock Artist of the Year” at iHeartRadio Music Awards. Moreover, the band consistently averaged a staggering 13 million monthly listeners on Spotify—remaining one of the most listened to rock bands in the world. With over 5 Billion combined streams, top tracks include hard rock anthems “I Hate Everything About You”, “Riot”, “Time of Dying”, among others.
To date, their veritable arsenal of number one includes “Home”, “Just Like You”, “Pain”, “Animal I Have Become”, “Never Too Late”, “Break”, “Good Life”, “World So Cold”, “Misery Loves My Company”, “The High Road”, “Chalk Outline”, “I am Machine, “Painkiller”, “The Mountain”, “Infra-Red”, “Right Left Wrong”, “So Called Life”, and “Lifetime”.

KOIKOI
KOIKOI is a Belgrade-based band that blends raw energy, emotional depth, and genre-defying music, bridging indie rock, electronica, and post-punk. With their debut album “Pozivi u stranu/Calls aside”, they achieved remarkable success, performing over 130 concerts across 16 European countries and laying the foundation for their growing international recognition. They were nominated for the Music Moves Europe Award 2023 at Eurosonic, where they also performed at the renowned Vera Club. They have since appeared at major European festivals, including Reeperbahn Festival, EuropaVox, and Fusion Festival, as well as regional festivals such as InMusic, Exit, and Arsenal Fest. In 2025, KOIKOI performed at showcases Waves Vienna, SoAlive, and SHIP Festival (Croatia), steadily building their international profile. This summer, they opened for Fontaines D.C. in Belgrade, further affirming their reputation as one of the region’s most exciting live acts. Rolling Stone UK described them as “Serbian psych-rockers whose sonic power is tangible, with an electrifying sound and fully-charged concert volume.” Earlier this year, they released two singles, the latest of which was featured on KEXP Radio, ahead of their upcoming album On Happiness in Dreams, out November 14, 2025.
STRUGARE
Strugare is among the most interesting and recognizable artists on the Bulgarian alternative scene. Blending spoken word, alternative hip-hop and electronic influences, he creates music with a bright authorial style, intelligent lyrics and a strong stage presence. After his debut album STRUGARE and a series of memorable concert appearances, he established himself as one of the most original voices in contemporary independent music in our country.
UNDERWORLD
Rick Smith and Karl Hyde, the masterminds behind Underworld, are embarking on a remarkable journey. Over three decades since their groundbreaking debut album, “Dubnubasswithmyheadman,” and their iconic hit, “Born Slippy (Nuxx),” the duo continues to thrive and redefine the electronic music landscape.
In 2025, Underworld stands at the cusp of a modern renaissance. With over four decades of experience, they have consistently pushed boundaries and captivated audiences worldwide. Their Boiler Room debut this summer garnered an astonishing over one million views within the first five days, solidifying their status as a musical force to be reckoned with. Moreover, the recent re-reissue of their first seven studio albums achieved an unprecedented feat—all seven albums simultaneously topping the album charts, a testament to their enduring legacy and influence.
Underworld’s relentless pursuit of artistic excellence is evident in their sold-out 2025 USA tour, numerous festival headlining slots, and ongoing collaborations with renowned artists such as Brutalisimus3000, KETTAMA, and KI/KI. These collaborations, coupled with their consistently visceral live shows, further cement Underworld’s place in both the rich history of electronic music and its promising future.
NOTHING BUT THIEVES
Ten years young and a decade into their career, Nothing But Thieves have never sounded as vital, inspired and blisteringly adventurous as they do now. The Southend five-piece have built their reputation on expansive musical taste, strong songwriting, powerful choruses and an unmistakable live presence.
Their third record Moral Panic was a Number Three hit, with lead single “Is Everybody Going Crazy?” becoming a global streaming smash, currently sitting on almost 50 million Spotify plays. When the band could finally return to the road, their dates included a sell-out at London’s O2 Arena and Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome, totalling over 110,000 ticket sales across the entire run — a reminder that the live element has always been central to Nothing But Thieves.
With Dead Club City, Nothing But Thieves enter a new chapter, building a world that is part place, part mindset, part metaverse with cocktails — where privilege and alienation go toe-to-toe. A ballpit and a battleground for celebrity culture, social alienation, class, the music industry, tribalism and unity, protest and media, the youth versus the old guard.
Recorded and self-produced by guitarist Dom Craik over six months in a recording studio bunker in the Essex countryside, the 11 songs are vividly alive with big ideas, pop hooks, soul flourishes, hip hop beats, crunchy riffs and Conor Mason’s remarkable and slinky falsetto. The album is a concept bursting with characters, narratives and questions, but never gets lost in its own world: the songs stand powerfully on their own.
Set free, Nothing But Thieves’ imagination soared. On Dead Club City, the band sound more playful, more glam and less afraid of fun, drawing on influences they might once have treated as guilty pleasures. The result is a record that feels like the sum of all their ideas and experiences, their influences and ambitions — a bold, expansive statement that embodies everything about the band right now.
On stage, this new era is built to feel like a party. With a little bit of disco, a lot of soul, and a lot of upbeat moments that are light on their feet, Nothing But Thieves have never been afraid of a chorus, a melody, or a moment built to move a crowd.
KINK
Strahil Velchev, known by the stage name KiNK, is one of the most established and recognizable Bulgarian artists on the contemporary electronic scene. His creativity and innovative approach to live performance make him a phenomenon of key importance for both the national culture and the global electronic music scene.
KiNK has been defined by the international media and professional communities as one of the best live artists in the world. He is the recipient of recognition from leading publications such as Resident Advisor and Groove Magazine, which consistently place him at the top of the charts for “best live artist”. The uniqueness of his presence comes from his ability to build music in real time through synthesizers, controllers and modular systems, turning each of his participation into a unique experimental spectacle. In 2025, Strahil celebrates 15 years on the international stage as a KiNK live artist, with a full calendar of appearances in Europe, Australia, South and North America – proof of his enduring significance and ever-growing authority.
Velchev is one of the few Bulgarian artists who have permanently established their presence on the most prestigious international stages. He is a frequent guest at festivals such as Tomorrowland and Glastonbury, as well as club institutions such as Berghain in Berlin and Fabric in London. This puts Bulgaria on the cultural map of electronic music and proves that a Bulgarian artist can be among the most sought-after and respected names in the world.
KiNK’s contribution to the promotion of Bulgaria as a source of high-quality and avant-garde electronic art is particularly valuable. Through his own label “Sofia”, he creates a platform for young and promising Bulgarian artists, who are given the opportunity to reach an international audience.
Strahil Velchev (KiNK) is not just a successful Bulgarian musician – he is a cultural ambassador who, through his innovative performances and global recognition, proves that Bulgaria can be a leader in the contemporary electronic and visual scene.
PAPOOZ
Imagine a catchy pop gem carried by an androgynous, haunting voice — light, graceful, and made to celebrate joy. PAPOOZ craft summery songs that linger long after the first listen.
Their breakout hit “Ann Wants To Dance” became a viral success, gathering over 10 million YouTube views and 20 million Spotify streams. For Ulysse and Armand, who met years ago while waiting in line for a Patti Smith concert in Paris, it marked the beginning of a shared mission: making joyful, guitar-driven pop music inspired by artists like The Beatles, Beach Boys, Velvet Underground, Steely Dan, and Kings of Convenience.
Over the past decade, PAPOOZ have built a colorful discography spanning dreamy indie pop, psychedelic grooves, folk influences, and danceable melancholy. With albums like Green Juice, Night Sketches, None Of This Matters Now, and RESONATE, the duo refined a sound that balances intimacy, romance, and effortless cool.
In 2026, PAPOOZ open a new chapter with Papooz & Friends!, a collaborative project bringing together artists from different musical worlds. More than a collection of features, the album is imagined as a creative dialogue — blending identities, emotions, and stories while staying true to the duo’s signature luminous melodies and understated sensuality.
