*Short Waves Presents:*

**\-The Maddocks**

The Maddocks, comprised of George Edwards (vocals & lead guitar), Siobhán Lally (bass), Ed Gibbins (drums), and Alex Tollerfield (rhythm guitar), have captivated audiences across the country with their high-octane live performances and unique sound.

In four years of playing together, the band have already released two EPs and several singles, generating acclaim from the likes of John Kennedy, Huw Stephens and Tim Burgess, as well as boasting an interview feature on BBC Radio 6 Music. The Maddocks are well-known for their energetic and engaging live shows, with a string of sold-out headlines under their belts, most notably at Manchester’s Deaf Institute.

All born in the same Stockport hospital at the turn of the millennium, The Maddocks all met at school a decade prior to forming the band, having spent their teenage years bonding over a shared passion for music.

**\-Toastrack**

TOASTRACK are a four-piece band fusing indie-rock energy with funky rhythms. Fronted by Alex Law’s powerful vocals, the lineup includes Jamie Merritt's driving bass riffs, Harry Nicholson's textured guitar work, and Adam Clifford's jazz-inspired drum grooves. Known for their genre-blending sound and vibrant live shows, TOASTRACK create music as playful as it is punchy - like having your ears tickled by Margot Robbie.

**\-Meet The Fishermen**

Hailing from all ends of the country, Meet The Fishermen bring all people together, young and old, through their singalong choruses and flawless ability to throw an unforgettable Alt Rock party.
