HESTIA // BEEJAR // EARTHMELON // + More

Hestia is a rising band of four musicians: Iris Roffey (vocals, keyboard), Jake Jones (guitar), George Henderson (bass), and Stanley Halliday (drums). Jake and George began making music in childhood before meeting Iris and Stanley at College. They have played many gigs in Hampshire and southern England, developing a loyal fanbase. Their summer 2024 tour in the Isles of Scilly showcased their energetic performances. Hestia embraces diverse music styles, showing their versatility across genres. As they prepare for their next recording session at Salvation Studios in Brighton, excitement grows for new material. These songs are inspired by iconic bands like The Pretenders, Portishead, and The Cranberries, offering a mix of catchy melodies and meaningful lyrics. With a spirit of exploration and innovation, Hestia is ready to present a new chapter in their evolving sound. In September 2025, Hestia will move to London to explore the city’s lively music scene. This change will create more chances for live performances and reaching new audiences. Over the next year, Hestia plans to play various gigs to showcase their evolving sound and connect with fans. They also aim to create new music that appeals to both current followers and potential listeners. Their focus is on collaboration and inspiration within London’s music landscape. As this new chapter begins, Hestia looks forward to sharing their art and experiences, strengthening their presence in the UK’s music culture.

BeeJar is an indie-rock band who have blazed their way across the London live scene, playing sold-out shows in venues such as the O2 Academy Islington, Dublin Castle and Temple of Art & Music, to name a few. Drawing inspiration from both legendary icons such as Fleetwood Mac and modern sensations like Fontaine’s D.C., their music possesses a timeless rock quality but with fresh indie energy. With powerful female lead vocals, funky baselines, killer riffs and energising drums combined with a talent for audience engagement, they always put on an amazing show that fans, both new and old, love and keep coming back for.

EARTHMELON is a genre-fluid collective of artists from across the UK, anchored by the song-writing partnership of Jonah Lorimer and Jamie Corbett. Formed during a pandemic-era summer while at university, the duo began crafting songs remotely – laying the groundwork for a project rooted in collaboration, exploration, and reinvention. Blending elements of R&B, alternative indie, and soul, EARTHMELON breathes new life into familiar sounds with a fluid, genre-agnostic mindset. Constantly evolving, the project thrives on collaboration with young musicians, producers, and visual artists, offering a fresh, holistic approach to creative expression.
