Cigarettes for Breakfast is a Philadelphia-based band known for their lush soundscapes and raw, emotive, fuzzed-out performances, capturing the essence of shoegaze and dream pop greats, such as My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive. The bedroom project of Matt Whiteford, along with an ever-changing cast of members and collaborators, has taken the hearts of listeners, making waves out of the DIY music scene and onto the stage with renowned acts like Slow Crush, The Asteroid No. 4, and Mahogany, among others.After collaborating with former band members and mix engineer Jeff Ziegler on their debut album “Join the Circus,”
Cigarettes for Breakfast's founder, Matt Whiteford, took things in the opposite direction and wrote, recorded, and mixed their sophomore LP Slow Motion on his own. The album takes a more personal, vulnerable, and inward approach to the songwriting while further expanding upon his modern take of the “classic” shoegaze and dream pop sounds. The live band, currently consisting of Matt Whiteford, Anthony Rossi, and Martin Buechler, embarked on their longest tour to date, selling out of the first pressing of the record and playing Slow Motion in its entirety across the US.

Swallowtail are a Brighton-based four-piece originally from Nottingham. They blend the fuzzy aspects of shoegaze with the intricate melodies of post-punk, creating an elegantly gritty soundscape. Fresh off supporting ‘bdrmm’ as part of their tour, with standout festival performances, and a string of sold-out shows across the country.
Swallowtail continue to establish themselves as a distinctive force among rising UK bands.

‘Swallowtail are the next band to break from Nottingham. Again, every shoe is better than the last. If you like noisy shoegaze - Just Mustard, Cranes, Ringo Deathstarr - this is really for you.’ - Under The Radar Magazine

First Day Of Spring are blooming. The groups experimentation with sound, their love of art and their love of melody assemble to make what is First Day Of Springs cathartic originality. That and their boundless past influences, post-punk and otherwise.
Through applying these characteristics to their sound, their vision expresses the beauty and melancholy that our singular and collective condition can and cannot bring, whilst also attaching themselves to a strong belief in unapologetically authentic song writing. The result and motive of First Day Of Spring’s music is to take you out of your reality and into something more.
First Day Of Spring have caught the attention of the likes of MTV UK, Brooklyn Vegan, Under The Radar, Week In Pop, Wonderland, Clash Magazine, Earmilk, Far Out Magazine, Clunk Magazine, BBC Radio 6 and multiple appearances on BBC Introducing the band are developing their presence within their beloved London scene and scenery.
