Featuring
Bear's Den
The Bear's Den story is something of a fairytale, opening with the truly bewitching Austin to Boston Communion Tour of the US in March of 2012, where they shared the stage with Nathaniel Rateliff, The Staves and Ben Howard. From there, the band traveled to a secluded cottage in the Welsh wilderness to record their eponymous debut EP. In keeping with their DIY ethos, the band did everything themselves, right down to stamping each EP with hand carved potato stamps. After a rapid succession of high-profile support tours, the stage was set up for Bear's Den to plunge into the deep end.

Christof van der Ven
Singer-songwriter and Bear’s Den touring member from Eindhoven in the Netherlands. He was raised on a steady diet of 1960’s American / English Folk. Christof "draws from influences like Damien Jurado and Fionn Regan, with chest-pounding, Springsteen-esque instrumentation, Grizzly Bear infused subtle arrangements and the influence of years spent on the road in Bear’s Den" - Circuitsweet,co,uk

Jack Garratt
London-based singer/producer/multi-instrumentalist Jack Garratt combines electric guitar, drum machines, keyboards, and an R&B-friendly falsetto to fashion smooth, club-ready electro-pop. The critically acclaimed artist topped the BBC Sound of 2016 list. He has also won the Brits Awards Critics' Choice prize and the BBC Introducing trophy at the BBC Music Awards. "His sound is a mix of James Blake's swerving electronics, Pharrell's falsetto choruses and, occasionally, Future Islands' growl" - NME.
