FENNE LILY Fenne wrote and recorded the material that would form her debut album ‘On Hold’ between the ages of 15 and 20, while touring the continent with and lending her dulcet tones to the releases of rising altstars such as Aldous Harding, Charlie Cunningham, and Marlon Williams. The intimacy in the album resonated strongly with the global online community and it has received over 100 million streams, despite being self-released. rennie@anothermgmtco.com facebook.com/fenne.lily

ALGIERS Algiers arrive at SXSW fresh from a European tour, following the release of their third album, ‘There Is No Year’. Three of the four band members grew up in Atlanta in Georgia, but the band offi cially formed in London in 2012. Their new album ‘There Is No Year’ was released in January on Matador to 5 star reviews across the board. al@aerymusic.com algierstheband.com

SORRY Sorry are a four-piece band based in North London who make no apologies for the success they’ve built in such a short time – and nor should they! They recently performed a session for Jack Saunders on Radio 1, and they have just fi nished a really successful Europe tour. Their album ‘925’ is due for release at the end of the month. bertiegibbon@roughtrademanagement.com sorryband.co.uk

LOS BITCHOS Los Bitchos’ distinctive sound comes from the fi vepiece band’s deep love of Peruvian instrumental Cumbia music from the 60s and 70s. The North-London based band have supported amazing artists like The Parrots, TOY, and Bill Ryder-Jones. keith@lanzaroteworks.com losbitchos.bandcamp.com

BLACK COUNTRY NEW ROAD Black Country New Road are a weird and wonderful six-piece band formed in Cambridge. Their distinctive, dynamic sound has earned them approval from gig goers all around the country and earned them a place on the BBC Music Introducing Stage at Eurosonic Festival in The Netherlands this year. blackcountrynewroad@gmail.com facebook.com/blackcountrynewroad

POM POKO Pom Poko are a four-piece band from Norway who have built a fanbase across Europe and been played regularly on BBC Radio 1.
