Call Me Franco
Call Me Franco is an instrumental progressive-psychedelic band based in Brighton, UK. Formed in 2021, the trio joined forces when guitarist Ernesto Diaz recruited bassist Adham Armenti &amp;amp; drummer Fin Anderson; all respected players within the Brighton music cohort. What ensued spawned a one-of-a-kind blend of genre, pulling elements from a wide pallet including Latin/Contemporary Jazz, Progressive Rock, New-Wave Psych and Kraut Rock, dressed with a hypnotic sense of groove and melody. To date the three-piece have taken the Brighton scene by storm selling out multiple headline shows and have supported the likes of Ghost Funk Orchestra(NY), Japanese TV and local legends The Trip Westerns. With multiple acclaimed releases under their belts, the group are currently working on their long awaited debut album, set for release in 2026.

Aquatic Ape Theory
Aquatic Ape Theory are a five-piece indie psych/pop outfit based in Brighton, UK. Since their first release in 2021, AAT have begun to build a buzz for their nostalgic instrumentals, relatable lyrics, and varied live shows. Some with heavier, electronic influences as well as more laid back indie folk-esque tracks, there's something for everyone. With seven releases under their belt as well as a recent headline show at The Boileroom in February 2025, the band are on the right track to cementing themselves as ones to watch in the UK indie rock scene.

Mestengo
Mestengo are a 3 piece band based in Brighton who formed in late 2024. The band takes inspiration from all kinds of music, with strong ties to alternative rock, garage rock, jazz and Midwest emo. Since releasing their debut EP: ‘The Infinite After Butcher’ in January 2026, they’ve been steadily building a following playing shows around Brighton and London with more music already planned for the near future
