A Night Celebrating the Best in Emerging Talent
For nearly ten years, our New Moon Discovery Nights have shone a spotlight on up-and-coming artists from around the world - giving them the chance to hone their craft on our stage, and giving audiences the thrill of discovering raw, undiscovered talent.
This special Friday night edition brings together some of our favourite performers from past New Moon sessions — a hand-picked lineup that captures the incredible range and energy of the grassroots music scene.
Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating the rising stars shaping the future of live music.
Featuring - The Rackets
Indie-rock outfit The Rackets began playing London’s live-music circuit while still underage. They have since headlined iconic venues such as Camden Assembly, The Fiddler, and The Amersham Arms. The band released their debut single ‘I Don’t Mind’ in 2022, followed by the self-produced ‘Back in a Minute’ the following year. Their music combines the raw guitar of The Libertines and the early days of The Strokes while drawing on indie influences like Courteeners and The Maccabees.
Danama
Danama is an artist who seamlessly blends indie rock, electronic pop, and heartfelt ballads into a sound all her own. She crafts songs that are both introspective and anthemic, with lyrics that dive deep into the complexities of youth, mental health, LGBTQ+ experiences, and the power of hope.
