PLOT AGAINST PARIS
Roll Up

We love this track which is punchy from the start. Plot Against Paris perform with bag loads of energy and confidence.Although they’ve only been together for a short while, this Worcester trio’s sound is clearly defined.

'The best-looking gang in town pull off emo with a style and sophistication that shames their peers' says the NME.

LAURA WELSH
Nobody Knows

Birmingham singer-songwriter Laura Welsh has been supporting number 1 selling artist Newton Faulkner at a string of gigs across the UK. Couple that with co-writes with Gordon Mills (who co-worte Newton Faulkner’s top 15 single Dream Catch Me) and further support slots with Ben’s Brother and Justin Noauka, Laura’s profile is rising dramatically.

LOWERY
Something We Both Know

Recently signed to the Arcadia Collective, Norwich born Lowery is clearly a natural and gifted songwriter. This recording captures a reflective moment looking over the end of a relationship. He wooed festival goers at last year's Big Chill with this perfect retro summer song.

MONROES
Harrington Boys

Norwich band Monroes were recently selected to support indie darlings The View at a sell out gig at Norwich’s UEA. They were called in after the band's original support slot cancelled at the last minute and a search was launched on Radio 1’s Jo Whiley show to find a replacement.

The NME said: 'The frantic sound of Monroes owes quite a large debt to bands such as The Jam, Madness, The Cure and The Police, while their live shows are always guaranteed to leave sweaty bodies in their wake. These boys definitely love to entertain'.

TAISA
Hear Us

A really strong song from this pop artist. Still only 16 years old, Taisa wows with a voice way beyond her years. Writing with Chris Eaton (who has written no. 1 hits for the likes of Amy Grant and Cliff Richard) Taisa is already an experienced singer, having performed on ITV’s Stars In Their Eyes as Karen Carpenter.
