Change can be volatile, overwhelming, wonderful and heartbreaking– but above all else, it can open a portal into a new season of life. The past few months for Nieve Ella have felt similar, as though everything turned on its head and time started to move faster by the day. Out of all this comes the 21-year-old’s transformational new EP Watch It Ache and Bleed, a collection of invigorating indie-rock anthems brimming with raw feeling; it’s the sound of a young, determined woman ready to go out into the world with a whole new perspective on what ambition and desire mean to her. In just two short years, the West Midlands singer-songwriter has galvanised a legion of devout fans thanks to her wit and electrifying stage presence. An accomplished self-taught guitarist with a finely-tuned ear for a soaring hook, Ella’s lyrics recall the candid songwriting of Sam Fender. By writing astutely about growing pains, unfiltered impulses and those first real, unexpected breakups with sincerity and flair, she extends a helping hand to listeners going through similar journeys of growth.

Formed in 2021 by musician, singer, and songwriter Abbie Rose, Abnorm is a fast-rising force in the North East’s alternative rock scene. Known for their powerful, thunderous sound and raw, openhearted lyricism, the band delivers anthems that speak to the struggles, passions, and inspirations that drive Abbie’s songwriting.

Blending hard-hitting riffs with emotive storytelling, Abnorm’s music channels both intensity and vulnerability, creating an electrifying experience for audiences. Whether tackling personal battles, societal issues, or moments of deep reflection, the band’s songs hit with an unrelenting energy that refuses to be ignored.

On the rise of Abnorm, Abbie says: “When I was growing up, there was a severe lack of representation of women in rock music. I grew up obsessed with Paramore, The Pretty Reckless, Joan Jett, and Janis Joplin. Before I considered starting Abnorm, I was listening to other emerging female-fronted rock bands like Dead Pony, The Mysterines, Black Honey, Yonaka, Nova Twins, Wet Leg, Scene Queen, and Cassyette.”

Gambit is a four-piece rock n’ roll band from Edinburgh, Scotland. Coming from a range of backgrounds and hometowns, Gambit formed in early 2024 over mutual love of the roots that make rock n’ roll. Combining elements of gritty rock, smoky blues and punchy riffs, Gambit has curated a sound that explores the breadth and depth of their musical influences. The band’s members: Emma Youmans (vocals, rhythm guitar), Owen Morrow (lead guitar), Alastair Clarke (bass) & Oscar Marks Lewin (drums) remain committed to crafting guitar-driven rock n’ roll that is reflective of their collective spirit & identity.

The Devil’s Forfeit are a rock & roll band with dirt under their fingernails and fire in their gut. Hailing from Edinburgh, this four-piece blends the grit of blues with the stomp of classic rock, delivering riff-heavy songs that feel both road-worn and razor-sharp.

Formed in late 2023, The Devil’s Forfeit have quickly built a reputation for tight, high-voltage live sets that channel the raw swagger of vintage Stones, the southern bite of Creedence Clearwater Revival and the melodic crunch of early Zeppelin and The Stones. Their sound is steeped in blues tradition but never stuck in the past- lean, loud and unafraid to swing hard. Early gigs include support slots for German blues-rock outfit Blue Deal and UK slide-guitar powerhouse Troy Redfern, setting the stage for a breakout year. With each show, The Devil’s Forfeit prove they’re not here to chase trends-they’re here to play music that moves, grooves and leaves a mark.

Bibi Club are a Montreal-based duo made up of Adèle Trottier-Rivard and Nicolas Basque. Blending shimmering synths, hypnotic rhythms, and bilingual vocals, their music drifts between dream-pop, post-punk, and indie electronica. Formed during the quiet of lockdown, the pair began writing songs that captured the intimacy of home life and the pulse of the city outside their window. Their debut album Le soleil et la mer introduced their warm, nostalgic sound — a world of subtle grooves, soft light, and emotional depth. Both meditative and danceable, Bibi Club’s music feels timeless and deeply human, connecting listeners through rhythm, memory, and melody.

on april 10th mantle and import join forces for their next event to celebrate their first milestone with a bass filled birthday bash. To properly celebrate – they are inviting UK Dubstep royalty Joker to headline the affair.

Pioneering UK producer from Bristol, and key architect of the “purple sound” – a fusion of grime, dubstep, and funk-soaked synths that helped shape an entire wave of electronic music in the late 2000s, he reshaped dubstep with his signature blend of heavy sub-bass & glossy synth leads. His deep-coloured, melodic approach stood in bold contrast to the darker minimalism of early dubstep, earning him a cult status within the UK bass scene.

With releases on Hyperdub, 4AD, his own Kapsize Recordings, and even a Skrillex collaboration – Joker has an extremely strong foundation of his own work to guide the sound of any set he plays. Expect color, building pressure, and of course heavy bass in what is sure to be a masterclass in honing one’s sound.

mantle and import founders Feena and Buckfast Barbie open the birthday bash in their first club b2b building off of each other’s selections to get the room ready for Joker.

we hope you will join us for this very special first birthday celebration!
