Saturday 11 July
Combining infectious melodies with stadium-ready hooks, The Vaccines have been fixtures of London’s indie rock scene since 2011, following the release of their platinum-selling debut album, What Did You Expect from the Vaccines?. Festival favourites from the outset, they’ve continued to enjoy success both at home and abroad with subsequent releases including Come of Age, English Graffiti, Combat Sports, Back in Love City and Pick-Up Full of Pink Carnations.
Formed in 2010, the band brought together Justin Young (vocals, guitar), Árni Arnason (bass), Freddie Cowan (guitar) and Pete Robertson (drums). Their breakout single, “Post Break-Up Sex”, arrived in early 2011, paving the way for their debut album later that year. The record went platinum in the UK and cemented their status as one of the country’s most exciting modern rock bands.
Their 2012 follow-up, Come of Age, saw the group reach new heights, becoming their first UK number one album. For their third record, English Graffiti (2015), the band embraced a more experimental approach, recording in the US and broadening their sonic palette. They returned with the high-energy Combat Sports in 2018, before continuing to evolve their sound on 2021’s Back in Love City. Following line-up changes, including the departure of Freddie Cowan, the band released Pick-Up Full of Pink Carnations in 2024. Recorded in Los Angeles, the album delivers a confident yet reflective collection of songs exploring themes of loss and heartbreak, reaffirming The Vaccines’ place as one of Britain’s most enduring indie acts.
Absolutely (AKA Abby-Lynn Keen) is emerging as one of the most compelling new voices in the UK today, carving out a distinct lane with her ethereal blend of R&B, pop and EDM. Her sound – dreamy, immersive and subtly experimental – first took shape with her 2023 debut Cerebrum, and now evolves further with her highly anticipated sophomore album Paracosm, set for release in 2026. Beyond her solo work, Absolutely and her sister Amma, feature on their elder sister RAYE’s second album This Music May Contain Hope, contributing not only as vocalists but as songwriters shaping the project’s emotional core. As they step into their own spotlights, they continue to build their artistry while supporting RAYE on her 2026 Global Tour This Tour May Contain New Music.
Nieve Ella continues her unstoppable ascent, evolving from bedroom-pop beginnings into a confident, guitar-led indie force. With her standout 2024 EP Watch It Ache And Bleed and a run of acclaimed singles, she has cemented herself as a fiercely relatable voice in modern indie music. Kicking off her new era with the single “Drive,” she explores a moodier, more nocturnal sound-expanding the sonic world first introduced on her 2024 EP. The track marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Shropshire-born songwriter, one defined by growing confidence, maturity and creative ambition. Having already impressed on major UK tours and supported artists such as DYLAN and Girl in Red, Nieve Ella continues to translate her emotionally charged songwriting into powerful, high-impact live performances.
Renowned for his live shows, Tyler Ballgame’s music is built on strong melodic hooks and draws subtle inspiration from the 60s and 70s, blending nostalgia and undeniable songcraft. Tyler’s stunning debut album For the First Time, Again was released at the start of 2026. A bracing reminder of how great songs delivered by a gifted vocalist can move, captivate and inspire, it boasts 12 finely crafted tunes rooted in classic rock, indie and Americana.
Scottish rising star Kerr Mercer is bringing his powerhouse soulful-pop to Sunday’s lineup with the full approval of Lewis Capaldi, who has helped support his nascent career and written a song with him. Mercer cites soul greats like Sam Cooke, Ray Charles and Etta James as influences and has also supported Myles Smith and Teddy Swims. His raw, emotive vocals and masterful piano work have quickly built him a fervent grassroots following and his singles “Alcohol” and “0:01” have been breaking through nationwide. Armed with a voice that demands to be heard, Mercer is poised to deliver a genuine, heart-on-his-sleeve set to grab Hyde Park.
London-based sibling trio NECKBREAKERS (Maxx, Georgie, and Ebony-Rose Palmer) have attracted comparisons to the likes of Fleetwood Mac and are forging a reputation from shimmering, hook laden 80s guitar pop. Recent tracks like 2025’s “Elephant” and “IN LOVE” have continued their momentum and are ready-made, summer festival anthems.
Benjamin Steer is a British-American artist and songwriter known for his catchy, introspective and emotionally resonant songs about modern love and life. Drawing inspiration from artists such as early Ed Sheeran, Myles Smith and Mackenzy Mackay, alongside peers like Michael Sanzone and Thomas Day, he blends acoustic and indie-pop into a fresh, relatable sound. With support slots for Kingfishr, Calum Bowie, and Myles Smith already under his belt, his live shows deepen the emotional connection of his songwriting, turning performances into shared, engaging experiences.
Irish singer Luz Corrigan, known as Luz, rose to prominence in 2020 after a viral cover of Dean Lewis’ “Lose My Mind,” which led to recognition from the artist himself and a support slot in Dublin. Originally from Ferbane, County Offaly, she began sharing stripped-back covers online at 16 before releasing music under her own name. Her debut single “I’m Lonely” was followed by “We’ll Be Fine,” “The Author,” “Counting Houses” and “Permanent +1,” and later releases such as “The Minute You’re Gone” established her as a promising songwriter in her own right.
Sebastian Croft is a British actor and musician, known for playing young Ned Stark in Game of Thrones and for his leading role in Heartstopper, as well as starring in the How to Date Billy Walsh. His debut EP showcasing his own music and songwriting is set for release in November 2026 via Manifest Music, and BST Hyde Park is excited to get an early listen!
Luke La Volpe is a Scottish Music Awards ‘Breakthrough’ winner who’s emerged from West Lothian’s thriving music scene, alongside his contemporaries The Snuts and Lewis Capaldi. During lockdown, he released his Terribly Beautiful EP and organised the Sofathon Singalong to support the Music Venue Trust, later becoming a patron alongside icons such as Paul McCartney and Billy Bragg. Known for his distinctive voice and emotive songwriting, Luke has performed at major festivals including Latitude Festival and now makes his Hyde Park debut.
