**SUPPORT FROM THE GLOWWORMS + HEART AND MOUTH**

**media puzzle**

Over the past three years, media puzzle have released four scuzzy post-punk albums and two blisteringly short, high-energy EPs. Residing somewhere between Suicide’s dark minimalism and Uranium Club’s eccentric edge, the project’s last two albums earned an exclusive vinyl feature at Rough Trade and a strong 8.0 rating from Pitchfork, praising the project for its “DIY batter of post-punk and no-wave idiosyncrasies”.

**The Glowworms**

Somewhere on an axis between stories and hymns, between the organic and the distorted, The Glowworms’ sound is warm and full of colour. An indie rock band with elements of folk, country, and jazz, the group met at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama and began releasing music and playing on the London underground circuit in early 2024, selling out venues including The Windmill and Shacklewell Arms before releasing their debut EP W.O.D in October 2025. Their latest release, Baleen, is a glittering, sunswept project about getting older, parasocial relationships with sea animals, and John Cusack movies.

**Heart and Mouth**

Rooted in the earthbound musings of folk and clawing against cold blooded urban life, Heart and Mouth is explosive yet flush with intimate textures and brittle sounds that seem ripped, patched, reshaped or regrown. Post release, the live band has been regularly gigging across the UK, with notable shows at The Lexington, Moth Club and several sold out shows.
