Villanelle

Villanelle were selling out shows before releasing any music. The British trio play grunge with gritty guitars, catchy hooks and a knack for big melodies. Influences from Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins and My Bloody Valentine come through alongside a loose rock ’n’ roll swagger. Formed by three friends, Villanelle have since taken their sound to international festival stages. Their debut EP “Measly Means”, released in May 2026, balances a rough-edged sound with songs that quickly stick.
