Spinnup & Metropolis Sessions

On April 14th we launched our brand new partnership with Spinnup – and what a great night it was indeed! We’d like to extend a huge thank you and congratulations to all the acts that were scouted to play the Metropolis Sessions.

“I think it’s fair to say that this new partnership between Metropolis and Spinnup can only lead to great things. I’m really excited to see what the future holds for these artists knowing we’ve seen them here first!”
Luke Smith, Project Manager Metropolis Studios

VAUDE VILLAINS

Vaude Villains, a quartet from Brighton, first attracted the attention of ex A&R Heads Jack Steven and Peter Hadfield entering a mentoring programme with them – the pair responsible for signings such as Florence and the Machine and Arctic Monkeys. The band have since played across the biggest unsigned venues across Brighton and London in preparation for their debut single release \\\’Alabama\\\’.
