Chloë Wilson born in Milton Keynes and raised on a steady diet of Fleetwood Mac & Adele, Chloë blends the nostalgia of golden age hits with a modern alt-pop soul. A rockstar confidence that fronts vulnerable, diary-like lyrics. Chloë is the big sister you want to be, and the best friend that tells you everything. At 16, after her first heartbreak, Chloë wrote her debut single ‘Broken Me’. For six years she held onto it, revisited it, and let it grow alongside her. Working with Producer Matt Terry in Vada Studios to finish moulding this emotional yet powerful ballad, there ended a 6 year long pursuit of perfection, and the first of four songs that formed her debut EP 'All My Feelings Falling Out'. Since it's release, Chloë has shared her first body of work with audiences across the UK, three of the four tracks have been featured on ITV's Love Island, and 2026 marks her first run of main stage festival performances.
L'Extravagante arrived in London chasing our own dreams. Somewhere along the way, our paths crossed, and L'Extravagante was born. Our music is shaped by real experiences we've lived together and apart: change, connection, love, ambition, loss and the moments that leave a mark. Honest, raw and cinematic, every release is another chapter, and we'd love you to be part of the journey.
AMBER is a London-born singer-songwriter who took a leap of faith, leaving behind a traditional career to pursue music full-time.
My music blends pop and soul, with piano-led melodies, emotionally rich vocals and a focus on music that feels both deeply personal and universally relatable. She has been singing since I was 12 and I’m influenced by artists like Etta James, Adele, RAYE, Carole King and Alicia Keys who have depth and storytelling at the heart of their music.
Her songwriting explores the messier side of love and human connection: the ways we lose ourselves trying to hold onto someone, watching people we love change, and ultimately learning to choose ourselves. I write about relationships, betrayal, identity, emotional survival and those moments when you realise you can’t save someone at the expense of yourself. There’s vulnerability in my music, but also anger, strength and a sense of self-reclamation.
Disco Lizards are straight out of East London and straight onto your radar, Disco Lizards are a five piece rock ’n’ roll force of nature, shaking hips and rattling stages with raw energy, swagger and their unmistakable reptilian sound.
Fusing gritty garage rock, infectious grooves and an explosive stage presence, Disco Lizards bring a fresh shot of adrenaline to the UK indie scene. Their music is loud, loose and laced with attitude, the kind of soundtrack that gets you dancing on tables and screaming every lyric.
2026 has seen the Lizards step things up with the release of their second album, LIFE LESSONS, followed by a UK HMV tour taking the band to Liverpool, Norwich, Canterbury and Birmingham, alongside a growing run of live dates and festivals including Tramlines, Keynsham Fest and Victoria Park Sessions.
