These Are Our Top 10 Under-The-Radar Acts From Reading Festival 2024’s Lineup

New music’s the best thing in the world, isn’t it?

It’s that indescribable feeling of stumbling across a song and having it soundtrack your life for a brief moment in time. It’s turning to it in your moments of ecstatic joy and solitary sadness sadness; using it to drown out the noise of the motorway on road trips, or to distract your whirring mind from your irrational anxieties at 1 o’clock on a cold Tuesday morning.

We guess that we’re trying to say is that music makes you feel things.

And sometimes, those things might just be pretty good. That’s why we spend so much time trying to curate the best new music in the world for the listening pleasure of you, our dear readers.
