🎙️ On this episode of Northwest Connection, we sit down with Liverpool rockers The Arlos—a band making serious noise on the UK festival and gig circuit. But this isn’t just about music…

🛵 We dive into unexpected territory, from encounters with Elvis impersonators to scooter riding, all while getting the inside scoop on their latest track, Tokyo. Expect plenty of laughs, behind-the-scenes stories, and, of course, a deep dive into the anthemic sound that’s putting The Arlos on the map.

🔥 Turn it up and get ready—this one’s a ride!

In this episode, we sit down with Kubrick Stare, the alternative grunge powerhouse making waves with their dark, brooding sound. Drawing influence from the raw intensity of the grunge scene (particularly Nirvana), they bring a modern edge to the genre with haunting vocals, heavy riffs, and an uncompromising energy.

We talk about their musical journey, creative process, and what fuels their intense live performances. Plus, we dive into their latest releases and what’s next for the band. If you’re a fan of grunge with a gothic twist, you won’t want to miss this one!

Scouse band, The Alts, join Trelf and Seb in the studio to chat about their musical journey and how they constructed their hot new single Break the Walls Down.

*we had some tech issues - apologies for the bad sound!

Second part of our chat with Rivia, more chaos and laughs with the lads from Liverpool. Includes a bucket of soup!

Trelf and Seb chat to Rivia and take you behind the riffs, the laughs, and the questionable car choices. With a sound that blends the raw energy of 80s metal with the gritty angst of 90s grunge, Rivia has been carving their name into the underground scene one power chord at a time. But this isn’t just about the music—it’s about the madness that comes with it.

Join the band as they share hilarious, cringe-worthy, and downright bizarre stories from their musical journey!
