Little Comets are a band from Newcastle whose musical style has been likened to Vampire Weekend. Using inopportune moments and a musical alphabet as deep as the sea this combination of pockets, testing, melody and treason will stumble across your path and leave an indelible mark deeper than hue, fingerprint or membrane on your story.

After making their live debut by playing two sell out shows at the end of 2023, Grimsby Shines are looking to ride the wave into the new year.

The band, labelled as an overdue collaboration between two of North East Lincolnshire’s great song-writers - was fuelled by the private sharing of demos on Soundcloud, followed by the release of live performances of ten songs on YouTube in 2023.

Shines consists of Richard Dutton on vocals, Rob Cross on guitar, Marc Poole on bass guitar, and Chris Day keeping a steady consistent beat on drums.

Shines plan to release a handful of singles and videos this year to accompany the eagerly-awaited album in the summer.

These releases will be accompanied by live shows and festivals which will be announced sporadically throughout 2024 to fuel the growing buzz around the band and their songs.
