The alternative rock band Bad Suns made their way to London to play a room filled with passionate fans at Electric Ballroom in Camden. The band is touring in support of their latest studio album “Accelerator”. After been touring for over a decade at this point, the experience shines through during their whole set. 

The Vaccines brought a packed Usher Hall to life as part of the 15th anniversary tour for their debut album What Did You Expect from the Vaccines?. They played the record in full to start the night, which meant the crowd got hit with one early favourite after another. Hearing those songs back to back after all these years felt special, with all of the room singing along.

I managed to catch global superstar Jason Derulo on his The Last Dance world tour at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena. Many fans have speculated that the tour’s name may hint at Derulo slowing down his touring schedule—or perhaps be on his final tour. Only time will tell.

As part of their “Life’s Not Out To Get You” 10-Year Anniversary Tour, Neck Deep took over the O2 Institute in Birmingham and they brought pop punk insanity with them. Kicking off the evening was Anxious, a spirited band hailing from Connecticut. Their set was a mix of passion and raw energy, captivating most of the audience despite a few rough patches. You could see the confidence building as they played, and their enthusiasm was infectious. This was the start of 3 absolute whirlwinds on stage.

Alessi Rose brings her high-energy victory lap tour to London’s O2 Forum, delivering a powerful, emotional set spanning all three EPs. Full review.

Sunday (1994) played their biggest headline show to date at EartH Theatre in Hackney on 20th November 2025. The venue felt tailor-made for them, its soft, vintage theatre setup matching the band’s hazy, romantic aesthetic. The tour has centred on their new EP, “Devotion”, threaded together with fan favourites, and the crowd, spanning generations, showed up ready for a communal singalong.

On Friday 24th November 2025, 2hollis turned the O2 Victoria Warehouse Manchester into his own world. Throughout his set he delivered high-energy and chaos, with his EDM-leaning sound that he’s known for.

This was my first time seeing The Last Dinner Party, and after that show I only wish it hadn’t taken me so long. They brought their tour to the Barrowlands after playing a sold-out show at the Corn Exchange in Edinburgh the night before.

I was fortunate enough to catch Loyle Carner’s second show out of three at the O2 Academy in Glasgow. I’ve loved his music for years now and it was great to see him live again. 

The Deaf Institute in Manchester got hit with something different on November 4th. Native James; an experimental grime and metal artist. He brought a set like no other. The venue was small, the lights were low, but the energy was unreal. The small, grunge venue created an explosive, but intimate connection between Native James and the crowd. No barriers, no distance, just sweat, bass, and pure adrenaline. His stage presence was undeniable; every movement felt charged, unpredictable, and alive. It's no surprise he's been selected for Download Festival 2025.
