Formed in 1994 by Bob Becker, Fearless Records initially became known for launching the careers of respected punk rock acts such as Plain White T's, At The Drive-In, Bigwig, The Aquabats, and Sugarcult. In recent years, the Huntington Beach, CA label has become an internationally-renowned hotbed for up-and-coming rock bands, including Breathe Carolina, The Maine, Mayday Parade, The Word Alive, Motionless In White, Alesana and Every Avenue. The label recently signed multi-platinum act EVE 6. Fearless Records is also home to the "Punk Goes Series," which is one of the top themed compilation series available. 

We are a 4-piece folk rock band based in Pretoria. Our music is driven by two guitars, bass and drums, garnished with banjo and harmonica. The result is an instantly recognisable blend of rock and roll designed to make you feel good, have a jol with your mates and hum the melodies on the way home.

Gallo Records new rising star with debut hits "Go Under" and "Fall Again." 

It was during his formative teenage years that London based singer songwriter Josh Wantie [pronounced ‘Von-Tee’], real name (Joshua Wantenaar) tapped into his love of guitar playing and lyric writing, fuelling his passion for making his own music. However it was only later in life, after discovering that he was unfulfilled in his chosen career path of fitness that Josh set his sights on music as a livelihood.

 

Josh’s ever-evolving live set-up is simplistic but profound as he swaps between bass, synth and guitar while blending in electronic elements and vocal loops. Influenced by several types of genre, Sia, Lorde, Ben Howard, James Blake and Flume are all among the artists that he draws inspiration from, lending a mellower, broodier sound to his work than that of stereotypical pop.

 

Signing to Gallo in 2015, Josh finally achieved a professional milestone he’d been chasing for so long with his blend of indie, electro and synth-rooted melodies. With the backing of his label, he was afforded the opportunity to travel to Cape Town to record at Heritage Sound Studio under the trusted ear Brendyn 'Rusti' Rossouw and alongside fellow Durbanites Brad and Josh Klynsmith from Gangs Of Ballet.

 

“I want to be successful enough to feed my family one day but I won’t measure my success as an artist by how much money I make, but rather that I wrote songs I believe in and were true to who I am,” he confesses and it’s this struggle of realization, which lends a deeply personal air to his craft, that makes him universally relatable.

Our Last Night was formed in 2004 by brothers Matt and Trevor Wentworth along with childhood friends Timothy Molloy and Alex Woodrow. Combining huge melodic choruses, intense breakdowns and wide raging vocals they have created their own brand of post-hardcore. Lyrically the band strive to create a message of hope throughout their records. With no label and a massive fanbase Our Last Night's DIY approach of self producing their albums and music videos has become a model for those seeking to do what they love. Their unique sound and ability to create rock solid covers of todays hits has solidified their success while launching their original music into new realms.
