Hydra Lerna is a one-woman-show, writing, recording and producing all of her music from her home studio/bedroom. She’s just released a new track titled ‘Clean Like You’, and it’s a catchy slice of electronic pop. The song explores the emotions associated with trying to…

WATCH: Little Cub – Hypnotise

South London trio Little Cub have shared a video for latest track ‘Hypnotise’ – and as the name implies – it’s a mesmeric, politically charged montage that visually articulates the band’s anti-establishment lyrics. They’re set to release their debut album Still Life on 28th of…

EP: PINS – ‘Bad Thing’

PINS – the girls who brought you brilliant albums Wild Nights and Girls Like Us – have gifted us with their devious new EP Bad Thing; and the 5 track release proves the Manchester group are still brimming with infectious confidence, and more of their intoxicating, ominous…

VIDEO PREMIERE: DIDI – ‘Sorry’

Not many twenty-one year olds can say they’ve been playing in bands for eleven years, but DIDI (aka Lauren Deakin Davies) has extensive experience in creating and producing her own music. She self-released her debut single ‘Sorry’ last week, and here at Gigslutz we’re excited to…

NEW TRACK: Cassava – ‘Long Way Home’

‘Long Way Home’ is the latest release from Southampton rockers Cassava, and it’s three and a half minutes of manic indie guitar and anthemic vocals. The four-piece recently supported Milburn (one of their favourite bands) at The Engine Rooms in their hometown,…

NEW TRACK: Heavy Suns – ‘Hide’

‘Hide’ is the new single from Barnsley based psych-rockers Heavy Suns, and it’s an abrasive, swaggering offering from the band who’ve been rated by This Feeling, Gigwise and Fred Perry as ‘ones to watch’ in 2017. The track is set to…
