• Page 3Issue Fifty-Eight documents the Autumn of 2025, but the band on the cover have dominated much of 'new band' conversation for the last twelve months or so. Manchester's Westside Cowboy find themselves in that middle ground where promise meets pressure and hype demands further substance. Now signed to Island Records imprint Adventure Recordings, the young, excitable four-piece are gearing up to share their second EP and play their biggest headline shows to date. In our interview, we go into the depths of their formation, grappling with scary major label stories and how they're sonically aiming for something closer to power pop than anything country. London's Sorry have been longtime favourites, a group who have consistently delivered their art with growth but without compromise. At the band's heart is songwriting pair, Asha Lorenz and Louis O'Bryen, and for what may be the sixth or seventh time, and ahead of new album, 'COSPLAY', we chat with them inside

• SpawnerHello! We are a band from Copenhagen called Spawner, consisting of Jonas, Ella and Johan. We write grungy folk and pop songs that combine our differences, merging vocal harmonies with fuzzy guitars. We are inspired by a lot of Danish songwriters that we grew up listening to. Our own sound taps into this nostalgic universe, while the lyrics particularly relate to our time and life right now. What led you to start writing and performing songs, and what brought you together?
