With a […]
Hailing from Hull, Vains is our Artist Of The Week! Swimming in the melancholic end of the pool, the band crafts moody sonic textures from cavernous driving drums and lush, twangy guitars.

Austin based Have To Have’s track Frenemy caught our attention this week to steal the ‘Artist of the week’ spot. Frenemy is an energetic guitar driven track.
