Coast Arcade are an indie-rock powerhouse from Auckland, New Zealand, injecting new life into guitar-driven music with their explosive energy and fresh take on the sounds of the 90s and early 2000s. Formed in high school and now operating as a fully self-managed and full-time act, the band’s four members - Bella Bavin (vocals/guitar), Leo Spykerman (bass/vocals), Arlo Birss (guitar), and Thom Boynton (drums) - bring together backgrounds in indie, metal, punk, and shoegaze to form a sound that’s bold, melodic, and built for the stage.
Coast Arcade has developed a loyal national following through relentless gigging, authentic storytelling, and a live show that’s as tight as it is energetic. Their debut EP Next To Me featured standout track Highest Heights (#2 Hot NZ Singles Chart), and 2024 singles Baited (#3) and City Limits (#8) marked a significant step into the international market. Collectively, the band has now surpassed 1 million+ streams, 950,000+ YouTube views, and boasts 33,000+ followers across platforms.
Their release campaign has seen consistent editorial support from Spotify and Apple Music, including placements on Fresh Finds Global, Best New Rock, Today’s Rock, and New Music Daily. They’ve also gained airplay in Australia, the UK, Europe, Asia, North and South America, with support from BBC Introducing, BBC Radio 1 Rock Show, Double J (AU), Radio Freccia (Italy), Spoon Radion (SUI) and Radio Hauraki (NZ). In 2024 alone, they’ve clocked thousands of radio spins and won the hearts of thousands of international fans.
Onstage, Coast Arcade has supported a growing list of international acts including Peach Pit, Lime Cordiale, The Beths, Teenage Dads, The Terrys, The Grogans, and Belair Lipbombs. They’ve played major festivals like Rhythm and Vines, Le Currents, Spring City, and White Out, alongside sold-out headline shows in Auckland, Hamilton, and Tauranga.
Now in the lead-up to their debut album (dropping October 2025), Coast Arcade is focused on expanding their audience across the globe. With a polished yet ferocious live show and a rapidly growing international presence, they are one of New Zealand’s most exciting export-ready bands.

Everything The Sewing Club: https://linktr.ee/thesewingclubband

The Sewing Club is a four-piece bedroom rock band that began in basements of college homes in Nashville, Tennessee. Together, Hannah McElroy (lead singer/writer), Stephen Meaux (Guitar), Justin McKinney (Guitar), and Zach McCoy (drums) have created a sound that is reminiscent of sparkly 90s rock and grunge with hints of punk and Nashville indie influences. Taking the stage alongside artists like Fleece, fanclubwallet, and *Repeat Repeat, the band has continued to grow a loyal and evolving fanbase. Recording in Stephen’s garage, bedroom, or in the hills of Hartsville, TN at Polychrome Ranch, they have stayed true to their DIY Rock roots. The Sewing Club has released singles with Jared Corder of *Repeat Repeat, and is currently recording their debut EP that is set to release Summer 2024.
