With the musical project Hockeysmith originally operating as a duo, Annie Hockeysmith now takes on the name solo as she preps for the release of her new EP 'Tears At My Age'. Dropping January 25th on Ex-Local, the record draws inspiration from the Cornwall rave scene of the 90s with Hockeysmith stirring in a combo of indie, R&B, dream pop and more.
Lots Holloway isn’t your everyday, run of the mill singer. She is an artist who has chosen to use her gift to spark conversation and movement around issues that are important of today, as well as delivering a window into the self. The Cornwall-born, London-based wonder is a powerhouse entity, not only blessed with a graceful voice, but is an insanely skilled multi-instrumentalist and producer.
Releasing her debut single 'World’s On Fire' earlier this year, the emotive pop record was a vivid slice of social commentary touching on the present global state that we’re all witnessing and living. Her follow-up song 'Is Anything Real Anymore' was another incredible and masterful offering of pop constructed with stunning orchestration and again insightful lyrics. Lots Holloway’s current track 'Stay A Little Longer' finds the artist spawning a darker sound swirling together indie and trip-hop-inspired electronica, bridging a 90s sound the now.
Cornwall band Auction for the Promise Club have unleashed their energetic video for the track 'Moonlight'.

Cornwall band Auction For The Promise Club released their debut EP One back in 2012 with songs acquiring support on BBC Radio 1 and more. Going on to drop singles such as 'This May Hurt', the trio make their return in 2017 with a forthcoming LP entitled 'Silence' out June 9th, and the fiery, new single 'Moonlight'. The no-frills rock cut has a subtle build up before exploding into a hard drum pounding, guitar racing bit that punches with force. This is a pure serving of rock and roll, straight with no chaser.
