moams Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 Blackwaters are a band to keep an eye out in 2020. Saw these at Tramlines for the first time, also they supported The Libertines at a few of their shows and they were on the BBC introducing stage at Leeds/Reading. Hopefully some big things for them next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anditmakesmesmile Posted December 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2019 The OtW2020 playlist from everyone’s suggestions is now 38 acts strong. I’ve not included acts who have already released albums or those who have been active for more than three years but from whom 2019 saw fewer releases (suggesting the brightness of their light was already fading). It will be interesting to see how many make the lineup. Here is a link to the playlist. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good shout and supporting Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes on the UK shows. In that vein: Kid Kapichi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckoner Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Another vote for Kid Kapichi I’d also add Lauran Hibberd From down under but yet to crack the UK, Benee has been doing good things in NZ and Australia and I’d expect she starts to make a splash soon. Not strictly meeting the criteria as they released a debut Album in August, but Waax a great Australian Alt-rock band From Scotland, Released a debut in October, Declan Welsh and the Decadent West. Maybe played Leftfield last year? Edited January 2, 2020 by Gregfc15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 The Mysterines will have an album out this year they seem to be gathering a bit of momentum. Should also get a 2nd album from Red Rum Club, here to save indie by way of a trumpet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellboy Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 This lot are currently working on their first album. Supported Sheepdogs and Temples last year. Hopefully 2020 will be a break through year for this fun band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only discovered them via Glastonbury but definitely think their on an upwards trend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m kind of in the same mind. It feel like music that’s not from this dimension, and it sounds awful but I was humming Money Machine at work today.

They’ll be releasing a new album this year by all accounts. Although they’ve released an album already, they’re still newer than most of the acts mentioned. They’ve been barely going a year. So still think they count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
