Jokers, Jacks & Kings are a London-based five piece rock band. Drawing influence from a range of genres including rock, folk, electronica, funk, and hip-hop, they write music that is both melodically accessible and rhythmically unusual. Since forming in 2009, Jokers, Jacks & Kings have developed a unique sound which combines an intricate interplay between synth and guitar with a heavy, technical rhythm section. A cornerstone of their approach is experimentation with time signatures and complex instrumentation. Their songs are characterised by a strong lyrical emphasis, with themes including botany, anthropology, and post-industrial confusion. They are currently mixing a new E.P.

The new album BACK TO LAND: out now 🔮

Umbrellabirds is Sam Blickhan, Lewis Daly, and Alex Hunt. The band began as a long-distance recording project when Sam Blickhan and Lewis Daly began exchanging demos in 2013. Alex Hunt heard these sparsely beautiful demos and initially signed up to produce, but was soon recruited as a full band member. The intricate, autumnal debut album was recorded in 2014-16, the product of many late nights and countless miles of travel. Oda Almås played strings on the self-titled debut. Shortly thereafter, the band began work on their second album—Closing Ceremony (2020)—featuring a bigger sound and a wider collective of musicians including Shyam Prasad on drums, Will Harvey on strings, and Cath Day on clarinet. Their third album—BACK TO LAND—was released in November 2025, further developing their signature indie-folk sound. Umbrellabirds have been played on BBC 6 Music by DJ Tom Robinson and featured on the BBC Introducing Mixtape.
