Very special guest CIAN DOWNING - “Don’t come calling me again!” is Cian Downing’s message to his doubters in his new single ‘Untouchable’, a toe-tapping indie-ska belter that has become a unifying singalong moment at his gigs. Cian Downing, a singer-songwriter hailing from Stevenage, Hertfordshire, is emerging onto the British indie scene with his infectious energy and refreshing melodic songwriting in the style of Billy Bragg, Paul Weller and The Specials. These influences, combined with the insightful social commentary and personal reflections in his lyrics, give Cian’s music a unique sound which is attracting supporters from across the UK. Cian has so far released 2 EPs - English Summers in 2021,followed by The Northside in April 2023, which included the instant classic, ska-revival single ‘I’ll Always Keep.’

Cian Downing will be releasing his debut album The Grassroots to the Sky in early 2025, and the future certainly looks bright as Cian’s rise continues.
