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?
Suburban Sound Machine are Surrey’s Blur to the Sleaford Mods Oasis. Playing upbeat indie with an edge, they focus on having fun and engaging their audience. Although the band has influences from early Britpop bands like Pulp, they also take from the likes of Madness, Ian Dury and Yard Act. Despite this eclectic breadth of influences, they manage to put a distinctive ‘Suburban Sound’ on everything they do. Their songs are catchy with driving bass lines and lyrics you can singalong to that poke fun at middle class suburban life.
Despite being old enough to be their parents, the band is largely follewed by 18-25 year olds who enjoy the live show and the ironic take on Suburban England.
