Okay, hands up - who’s already bored of gloomy weather and binge watching Bake Off? If you’re anything like us - i.e., done with this alphabet of storms and dreaming of festival season 2027 - then @greatescapefest’s First Fifty live launch is sure to shake off those cobwebs and inject some much-needed energy into Autumn.
Taking place across seven East London venues on 12th November, the one-night showcase will see 20 emerging artists perform across Hackney, offering an early look at the first names set to feature at next year’s edition of the flagship Brighton fest.
There’s a whole host of new acts to discover across the board - personally, though, we’ll be camping out under the beloved golden ceiling of @mothclub for a special First Fifty edition of DIY Neu Nights, hosting electro-acoustic trio @compostcompostcompost, Aussie trip-hop outfit @dumbheadhere, and sparky alt-rockers @dietwice__💥
Ahead of the latter’s opening set, we find out more about their bad habits, good times, and best Brighton recs…
Read the full feature and nab your tickets for the DIY x TGE First Fifty show via the link in bio. See you down the front!

From sticky basement parties to Paris Fashion Week, Leeds four-piece @bathingsuitsband have been getting themselves into some interesting places.
With new single ‘Do Ya?’ out now, their delightfully noisy approach to making music is winning them plenty of attention, even if they're not especially interested in explaining it. “Short answer, loud sounds and crazy drums. Long answer, I'm not doing all that.”
Catch them on Dork's stage at The Great Escape's First Fifty next month, and get to know them in our latest cover story for Dork's best new names playlist HYPE, on readdork.com now.

That’s the @mercuryprize-winning @raye, to you 🙂↕️ A very well-deserved win last night for her stunning album This Music May Contain Hope ✨
But even before Escapism, it was The Great Escape...
From first joining us in Brighton in 2015, and again in 2017, it’s been a joy watching Raye’s meteoric rise.
Who’s there for her return to the Royal Albert Hall tonight? 🙌

He's just announced a Proper Massive stadium tour for next summer, but we remember @sam_fender when he was still getting started (sorry).
Not only did Sam grace Patterns for TGE in 2018 - and at the @fender showcase no less - he first appeared at TGE all the way back in 2014, before going on to join our First Fifty line up in 2017 for @bbcintroducing 🫶
See you in the ticket wars next week x
