FORTITUDE VALLEY is the brainchild of Laura Kovic. Taking influence from the likes of The Beths, The Go-Go?s and Pavement, what results is a ludicrously addictive cocktail of heart-stopping indie-punk power-pop melody and a back catalogue of songs that?ll be living in your head, rent free, for evermore. The band have been making waves in the local scene over the past few years playing all over the UK, sharing the stage with the likes of Allo Darlin', Los Campesinos!, Gruff Rhys and The Wave Pictures.

Hartlepool?s MARKETPLACE have become renowned for their own brand of indie pop masterpieces and have earned their
devoted fanbase along the way. Off the back of engaging headline shows, the band have recently been invited to support
big names including Alfie Templeman, Swim Deep, The Lottery Winners and Abbie Ozard, as well as earning slots at
various festivals across the country.

YEAVERING BELLS are a 5-piece indie pop band from Newcastle. Inspired by equal parts alt-country, fuzzy pop and hushed folk, the band are releasing an EP in June 2025.
