RISING is a platform that showcases the very best in new music, whilst raising vital funds for War Child UK. Created by London music promoters, Hot Vox, RISING has raised over £340,000 for War Child UK through gigs, showcases & live-streamed performances.
Now, RISING is evolving into a national fundraising competition, seeking out the best RISING talent and providing them with opportunities to push their career to the next level, all whilst raising awareness and vital funds for War Child UK.
RISING will see artists submit a live performance video filmed exclusively for War Child UK. Music fans will then be able to tune in from the comfort of their own homes whilst claiming creative rewards in return for their donations.
The Top 20 artists that raise the most money for War Child UK will have the opportunity to present their music to our expert panel of music industry professionals, which includes festival bookers, booking agents, producers, DJ’s, radio presenters and music journalists.
The panel is tasked with choosing our winner, who will receive a HUGE stack of prizes.
Who will be crowned the best in RISING talent?
Leeds-based indie-rock/pop outfit Silverfish deliver vibrant, punchy energy while creating space for vivid and rich introspection. The four-piece band take inspiration from the likes of Foals, Sticky Fingers, and Radiohead to create distinctive indie-rock music filled with character and variety.
First formed in late 2021, members Tom Gannon (vocals), George Bolger (drums), and Ben Norton (Bass, Synth) all met at the University of Leeds and since then have been performing sold out headline gigs. In the summer of 2022, the band played at Y Not Festival under BBC Introducing, and recently have been featured on Radio X, BBC Leeds, BBC York, and BBC East Midlands.
