About

Emerging in 2023, Y have been cutting there teeth on the underground scene, and have carved themselves a reputation as one of the UKs most fearless new bands. A run of support slots with Fat Dog, Opus Kink, Warmduscher & KEG, and festival appearances throughout 2025 has cemented Y as not just a band to watch, but a band impossible to ignore.

With a lineup that thrives on contradiction, Y's kaleidoscopic energy comes from each member's wildly different backgrounds: Sophie (vocals, keys) delivers cheeky, off-kilter hooks with instinctual flair; Adam Brennan (vocals, guitar) draws on Japanese jazz fusion and unusual scales for his jagged harmonies; Dan GB (bass) fuses hardcore punk precision with Italo disco grooves; Brazilian percussionist Fells expands the band's rhythmic possibilities; and Harry McHale transforms the saxophone into a searing lead instrument. Together, they create music that is chaotic yet razor-sharp – an audio party that feels impossible to pin down.

Support comes from feral post punk cacophony Volk Soup (more sax!) from Leeds.
And Hull psych/ funk/ blues groovers Brünnhilde.
