Kate Nash has been confirmed for Sound City 2026, leading a wave of over 30 newly announced artists set to take over Liverpool across the May Bank Holiday weekend. The Foundations hitmaker will perform a full festival set and appear for a special in-person Q&A at the Sound City+ Conference — just weeks after making headlines for telling British MPs, “I sell pictures of my bum,” as she spoke candidly about the realities of funding independent touring. Taking place across Live

Martyna Basta has signed to Berlin-based exploratory imprint 7K and announced her third album Winged in Collapse , arriving 15 May 2026. Alongside the news, the Polish composer, producer and singer-songwriter has shared new single “Hands Want To”—a fragile yet unsettling introduction to a record rooted in contrast, where softness collides with abrasion and comfort sits uneasily alongside grief. Winged in Collapse finds Basta leaning into duality at every turn. Framed as a cr

Australian psych-rock mainstays POND have returned with “Terrestrials”, a cosmic new single and video that doubles as a pointed meditation on the contradictions of human nature. Out now, the track marks the band’s first new material since their critically acclaimed tenth album Stung! —and finds them leaning further into existential territory. Equal parts expansive and uneasy, “Terrestrials” wrestles with humanity’s dual capacity for connection and destruction, wrapped in the

Finn Askew continues his upward trajectory with the release of “Distance”, a slick, late-night R&B cut that arrives today (18 March) and sets the tone for his forthcoming mixtape, due this April. Produced by Ezra Skys (Odeal, Central Cee, BXKS), “Distance” marks a shift in Askew’s recent output—leaning into a more playful, toxic energy built on tension, attitude, and emotional chaos. Rather than pulling from direct personal experience, the Somerset-born artist taps into a moo

Mathias Kom and Michael Cloud Duguay have unveiled “Old Fire”, a sprawling and volatile new track taken from their forthcoming collaborative album Closed City , due 27 March via Watch That Ends The Night Records. Clocking in at nearly eight minutes, “Old Fire” sits at the heart of the record’s early sequence—both musically and conceptually. Where the album’s opening moments sketch the contours of an imagined, isolated settlement, this latest release plunges beneath the surfac

Anna Calvi has unveiled the title track from her forthcoming EP Is This All There Is? , a haunting and emotionally charged collaboration with Matt Berninger of The National. Originally written for The Souvenir Part II, the track now arrives in a newly reimagined form — a sweeping duet that sees Calvi and Berninger’s voices intertwine in a slow-burning meditation on hope, intimacy and existential longing. Built around the idea of “the bravery it takes to hope,” the song capt

Jaakko Eino Kalevi makes a striking return with “Black Diamond” , an ambitious, eight-minute odyssey that sees the Finnish artist once again bending genre and expectation to his will. Described as a “baroque melodrama” , the track is a sprawling, shape-shifting piece that draws unlikely connections between the worlds of Goblin, Cerrone and Lindstrøm, fusing cinematic prog, disco and cosmic electronica into something entirely his own. The result is a hypnotic, slow-burning co

Truthpaste return with their latest single “Bus Song” , a bold, emotionally charged release that continues to cement their reputation as one of the UK’s most intriguing emerging acts. Out now via Dirty Hit and Memorials Of Distinction, the track sees the five-piece pushing further into their shapeshifting, genre-defying sound. Blending elements of pop, acoustic folk and electronics, “Bus Song” introduces a more overtly emo-leaning edge to the band’s palette — a side previou
