BOLD Archieven - Hit The City

Casey MQ

Casey MQ mixes pop sensibility with classical training and a sharp ear for electronic production. After releasing his debut album babycasey in 2020, he’s collaborated with artists like Oklou, Eartheater, and Shygirl, and co-founded the queer virtual club Club Quarantine during lockdown. His latest record Later that day, the day before, or the day before explores memory and identity through rich, genre-blending songwriting. Expect a live show that’s honest, layered, and full of unexpected turns.


Little Moon

Step into the cosmic world of American indie folk band Little Moon, the dreamlike project of Utah’s Emma Hardyman. What began as a romantic album for her husband evolved into Dear Divine. A breathtaking exploration of love, grief, and spiritual rebirth, written in the wake of her mother-in-law’s passing and her own departure from the Mormon church. Her soaring vocals and lush, future-baroque arrangements evoke something between a Zelda soundtrack and Vashti Bunyan. On stage, she’s joined by close friends Bly Wallentine, Bridget Jackson, Chris Shemwell, Grace Johnson, and Nathan Hardyman, weaving a rich, emotional soundscape. It’s a transformative, celestial experience. An act of radical love and healing. Don’t miss it.


De Toegift

A suitcase full of sounds, eyes fixed on the horizon. De Toegift is on the move. This poetic six-piece from the Dutch coast blends spoken word, indie, and electronics into intimate dreamscapes of love, youth, and loss. They’ve captured hearts across the Low Countries; from Popronde and Noorderslag to sold-out club tours in venues like Paradiso and De Roma, and major festivals such as Best Kept Secret and Into The Great Wide Open. With their new album kleine auto, grote hot wheel, they once again push the boundaries of Dutch pop. Melancholic, magnetic, and full of wonder. Experience De Toegift live at Hit The City.


Allman Brown

This is your must-see moment: the electrifying Allman Brown is hitting the stage. The London-based singer-songwriter channels the spirit of legends like Springsteen, Bon Iver, and Tracy Chapman with his soulful, heartfelt music. With three acclaimed albums – ‘1000 Years, Darling, It'll Be Alright, and Second Son’ - he’s racked up over a quarter of a billion streams worldwide. His songs have featured in hit US TV shows like The Good Doctor and Criminal Minds, adding emotional depth to key moments. Brown’s heartfelt storytelling and captivating voice have taken him on tours across Europe, Asia, and North America. His latest album, Second Son, produced by Grammy winner Peter Katis, showcases a fresh, electronic-infused sound while staying true to his signature style.


Lusaint

Lusaint never imagined a music career, until she racked up over 70 million streams and became one of the UK’s most exciting new voices. Inspired by jazz greats like Nina Simone and Ella Fitzgerald, her raw, timeless vocals and soul-drenched storytelling have won hearts across the UK and Europe. From viral covers to BBC Radio 1 acclaim and praise from Elton John, Lusaint’s journey is as unique as her sound. Her debut EP Self Sabotage blends pop, soul, and vulnerability into tracks that hit home, with singles like “Fool For You,” “Sweet Tooth,” and “Sober” drawing major buzz. With sold-out shows and international airplay, Lusaint is not just rising, she’s soaring.


Matilda Mann

Matilda Mann is an emerging talent in the UK music scene, and though her career is still in its early days, it's already gaining momentum. Her sound blends heartfelt lyrics with a fresh folk-pop twist, creating music that’s both intimate and striking. This year, she released her debut album Roxwell, a stunning collection of indie folk tracks that offer a personal glimpse into her childhood and the streets of West London. The album moves through moments of light and darkness, capturing both the highs of hope and the lows of disappointment, all wrapped in a mix of vulnerability and strength. Featuring soft guitar arrangements and a laid-back, nostalgic vibe, that's drawing listeners into a world of reflective storytelling. Matilda has opened for artists like The Staves, Holly Humberstone, Arlo Parks, and Beabadoobee.
