Our FLASH gigs bring you hot emerging talent from around the UK - the artists you'll see on festival stages and supporting bigger names, the artists starting to get radio play and magazine articles, the artists that in a few years might well be costing you a LOT more to see...FloodHounds - https://linktr.ee/FloodHounds
FloodHounds are a Sheffield alt‑rock trio dealing in snarling riffs, razor shark hooks with a punk‑infused grit. Known for their raucous, high‑energy live shows, the band balances ferocity and melody with hook‑driven choruses built for big rooms. BBC Introducing have championed the band with repeat airplay and "best of the year" features, while Far Out Magazine praised their "immensely catchy melodies and raucous guitar riffs." Recent singles One Horse Race, Black & Blue showcase a new intensity sharpened by Noel Gallagher's advice to ramp up the attitude, while previous track Psychosemantics has blown up on spotify gaining 250k streams in a matter o months, backed by editorial support from Apple Music's All New Rock and Amazon Music's Breakthrough Rock. FloodHounds have previously opened for bands like Kid Kapichi and will support Skindred at their 1,000‑cap Sheffield album release show, as they gear up to release a run of their heaviest new singles through 2026.
RIVIA - https://linktr.ee/rivia.band
RIVIA are a four-piece from Liverpool on a mission to drag pop punk music back into the spotlight-kicking, screaming, and sounding bloody good doing it.
With a sound that fuses the swagger of '80s Classic Rock and the punch of 2000s Alt-Rock and Pop-Punk, they've carved out something that hits hard and sticks in your head. They've shared stages with big names like The Wombats, Mallory Knox, Bloxx, and The Sheratons, and played to thousands at festivals like Isle of Wight, Y Not, and Endorset.
No matter the size of the stage, RIVIA bring it-every time. Expect massive hooks, big energy, and a live show that leaves you grinning and a bit deaf. Rock's not dead. It's just been waiting for these four to show up.
The Red Line - http://linktr.ee/The_Red_Line_Band
The Red Line are a five-piece alternative rock band from Derby who have been making serious waves on the local scene.
With three singles already under their belt, the band have quickly built momentum.
Championed by BBC Introducing and fresh off sold-out hometown shows, the band have quickly built a reputation for loud, sharp, emotionally charged live performances.
Drawing inspiration from the gritty, riff-driven sound of Queens of the Stone Age, the raw energy of Pixies, and the intensity of Wunderhorse, The Red Line are carving out a sound that's both explosive and unmistakably their own.
The Red Line are singer Jamie, drummer Conall, guitarist Josh, bassist Cam and rhythm guitarist Cole. All living in the derby area and sharing a love of music, both performing and listening to other bands. Formed in August 2025, they have wasted no time making their mark, already gaining recognition from established names in the scene and selling out their first headline show outside of Derby.
With their reputation for high-energy performances continuing to grow, they are one of the city's most exciting rising bands.
Their first single, The Glass Between Us came out on 2nd September 2025.
The second release, Here Again, was released on 14th November 2025.
Holding On was released on 6th February 2026
