1000 RABBITS is an off-kilter art-pop picnic who tell stories through human sounds, both intimate and extroverted. Grounded by playful bass synthesiser, expressive vocal lines weave through a colourful tapestry of violin, guitar and drums, creating something immediate and immersive: rhythm-forward, emotionally raw, and built for bodies in motion. Comprising Laura (violin), Liv (synthesiser), Paolo (guitar), River (vocals) and Luke (drums), the five-piece cut their teeth across London’s independent venues, becoming regulars at The Windmill in Brixton where their high-voltage performances earned them a reputation as local “powerhouses”

LANDE HEKT has quietly become one of the UK’s best underground songwriters. On her 2021 debut full-length Going To Hell and 2022’s House Without a View, she explored her queer identity, sobriety, and childhood trauma through the lens of heartfelt, conversational indie-pop, which led to spots opening for the likes of Alvvays, Throwing Muses and The Beths. Her new album Lucky Now, written and recorded with producer Matthew Simms (Wire, It Hugs Back), reflects the most mature and confident version of Lande Hekt yet. “I’m not as concerned about how I’m presenting myself,” Hekt says. “I’ve tried to think less about how things are coming across, and just write songs that make me feel connected to myself and what I value.”
