Crystalline -
https://linktr.ee/crystallineband
Founded in 2017, Welsh rock quintet Crystalline have an undeniable knack for finding balance between intensity and softness, and have created a brand of alternative rock that floats between the pace and vibrancy of pop, the anthemic enormity of rock, and the poetic delicacy of famed singer-songwriters, drawing support from Planet Rock, BBC Radio One and BBC Introducing for Wales.
Following a string of early singles, including the infectious 'Sweet Tooth' and uplifting, self-affirming 'I Am Enough', the band's debut EP 'Charms & Smiles' released September 2023, showcasing an exciting blend of atmospheric electronic pop, hard-hitting rock and powerful vocals through 4 well-crafted tracks. The attitude packed 'Narcissistic Egotist' and determined 'Move On' (both of which picked up BBC Radio One airplay courtesy of Alyx Holcombe) set an intense pace early on, ahead of sparring duet 'Violet Room' which sees Dan Ross joining vocalist Eva on vocal duties in the EP's climax. 'Never Forget, a re-working of one of the band's earliest songs, offers itself as a grandiose curtain closer through brooding, tense verses and ringing, open choruses, as the band return to their classic rock roots.
Latest singles 'Better Off Without You' and 'Fake A Smile' set a fresh tone for Crystalline, with the pop-punk-soaked summer anthems leading the band into a new era with one certain promise: this band is here for the long haul.
Glass Bridges -
https://linktr.ee/glassbridgesuk
With roots set in the South of England, Glass Bridges is a four piece alternative rock band that blends hard rock and post grunge influences to create an atmospheric yet punchy sound. A lyrical emphasis on spirituality lends itself to the ethos of the group, utilising personal experience in the abstraction of collective understanding.
Consisting of guitarist Sam Canfield, vocalist Simona Cutifani, drummer Cameron Beach and bassist Josh Hodge, Glass Bridges represents the fragility of early relationships and the determination to strengthen connection through self-reflection and love.
Luna & the Lime Slices -
https://linktr.ee/lunalimeslice
Luna & The Lime Slices are a five piece alternative rock band based in Nottingham. A staple of the band's sound is their ability to go from soft and dreamy to loud and in your face. This, accompanied by atmospheric instrumentation and melodic harmonies gives the band an authentic sound.
All bands are on a door split so they get a fair share of ticket sales. By supporting these gigs you are genuinely directly supporting bands. Of course as standard, unlike bigger venues neither us nor The Victoria Inn take commission from any merch sales.
