Born in Pakistan and living in London from the age of 8, Babar Luck is himself a jigsaw of cultural experiences. Having gone from playing in legendary 90's punk band King Prawn to having a successful solo career ever since, Babar's performances are as unpredictable as they are comforting to watch.  He describes himself as "being of many things and many cultures; a Gay icon, a Feminist, a Sufi, a Humanist" and calls himself "a work in progress".

Pog are a Brighton folk punk institution led by Paul Stapleton's beautiful songs about lidos, twittens, starlings and playgrounds. The sweet melodies are undercut by lyrics that are as politically hard hitting as a trade union leader on a strike day. Adding to an extensive back catalogue of albums and EP's, Pog released their latest album 'Cobweb In A Storm' in 2023 which features musicians and friends from all over the UK and Europe whom they have picked up along the way.

Serin are a Leeds duo made up of Wren Boon and Lucy Bacon, who combine vocal harmonies, powerful violin melodies and gentle guitar to make a sound which is 'summat a bit different’. Just emerging onto the Leeds scene and describing themselves as 'sad boi folk'; Serin are a combination of originals and traditional folk songs, with themes including queerness, powerful women, and birdwatching.
