'Soft, plaintive songwriting with an autobiographical edge...' - Clash

Always an intelligent and unique songwriter, it's now been five years since Mat's debut EP 'To Being Free'. Inspired by and likened to James Vincent McMorrow, Nathaniel Rateliff and Woodkid, the EP quickly captured the hearts of many and drew the attention of some of the industry's finest tastemakers (The Line of Best Fit, Drowned in Sound, Clash, The 405).

What followed was an impromptu hiatus. It's took until 2022 for Mat to rekindle his passion for music. He returned in style, releasing a string of mature, impressive releases culminating in the EP A Worrier's Dream, which was expertly mixed by Paul Gregory (Lanterns on the Lake).

In September 2022, the Newcastle-based songsmith will return with two live releases featuring tracks from his recent EP.

Recorded and filmed live in a single take, these reimagined solo versions of Friend & Foe and Backward Steps see Mat strip away the textured accompaniments that we heard on the full release. Left behind are the songs in their rawest and most endearing forms, rich with colourful harmony, heartfelt sentiment, and soothing baritone.

This release will be closely followed by perhaps Mat's most enchanting release to date - Just The Family Inside. With intricacy akin to Fleet Foxes and bursting with charm comparable to Bright Eyes' First Day Of My Life, Just The Family Inside provides yet further proof that Mat has become a writer comparable to few others.

Worry Party used to be a post hardcore band.
Then it was an acoustic act.
Then I started exploring electronic music.
Another soft reboot coming up...

Inspired by the likes of Sufjan Stevens and Joni Mitchell and described by BBC 6 Music’s Lauren Laverne as “sublime,” Newcastle singer-songwriter Jake Houlsby is becoming a master at weaving haunting soundscapes with voice, synth, and intricate guitar melodies.
​
Having racked up over a million plays on Spotify since releasing his debut EP ‘Yannina’ in 2015, Houlsby has been championed not only by Laverne but also by Tom Robinson, and has received extensive coverage on renowned music blogs across the world. 

He is currently working on his debut album, out 2018.

Singer Songwriter and former lead singer of -kosoti-

We are Hunting Game, a four piece band from the northeast, our explosive yet melodic music is a blend of subtle atmospheric verses, and catchy heavy choruses. 

Hunting Game formed in march 2013 and we have spent the last year writing and perfecting a collection of tracks that we feel we are now ready to release.

We will be releasing two tracks in september 2014 titled 'Adam in wonderland' & 'Sunskin'

Adam in wonderland was the first track written by us and Sunskin was the second. The lyrics for all of our tracks are a sneak peek into the mind of our frontman Josh Callon and his life experiences

The rolling melodies of our tracks rise and fall in harmony with the emotions and experiences described in the lyrics.
