Pentire are an indie band who make pop songs for the post-jangle generation through the smiles and sweat of the mosh pit. This Herefordshire four-piece tell cheap lager-soaked stories of student life, a small-town upbringing, and the innocence of youth.

Brought up on a diet of The Killers, Paolo Nutini and Stereophonics, frontman and principal songwriter Jack formed a band with his best mate Owen in the sleepy town of Ross-on-Wye. The two friends met drummer Jake and bass player Jacob whilst at university, which cemented the four-piece that is now selling out venues across the UK.

With support from BBC Radio 1, Pentire completed a landmark sold-out UK tour in early 2024, including a full house for their hometown show at the infamous 'Thekla'.

WRKHOUSE - One of Amazing Radio’s tips for 2025, the  north Walian four-piece  WRKHOUSE have capped off a strong debut year. Earning them a Triskel Award at the 2024 Welsh Music Prize, their long-awaited EP Out of the Blue delivers an uber-confident blend of bilingual songwriting, infectious hooks, expansive arrangements, and rich textures of their North Wales roots. With praise from CLASH, Radio 1's Sian Eleri, and BBC Introducing's Jess Iszat, WRKHOUSE have gained a dedicated fanbase across the UK. Their atmospheric, groove-heavy alt-pop places them firmly among Wales’ newest generation of exciting emerging acts.

Last autumn, WRKHOUSE brought their 2024 to an explosive conclusion with ‘Take,’ the final chapter of their Out of the Blue journey. Having recently gained the support of Help Musicians’ Next Level Award, as well as PRS Foundation’s PPL Momentum Accelerator Award, work is well underway on the band’s next string of releases.
