Nature Kids + Ratoon

Nature Kids are a rock band from Leeds, UK.

Their debut album, self-titled “Nature Kids” - was released independently in April 2025. Critics identified sonic and creative influence from artists such as Neil Young, Alex G, Pavement, Cate Le Bon and Elliott Smith.

Their earnest and introspective songwriting paired with their engaging live shows - which are characterised by a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere, have both contributed to their growing fan base.

Rory (songwriter) has a background in visual arts and designs the band’s merchandise and art work which tie into the musical themes of the band.

The 5-piece have gained recognition through performances at notable festivals, including Green Man, Deer Shed, Twisterella and Stockton Calling, and have recently shared stages with Brown Horse, Nap Eyes, Pys Melyn, Langkamer and Personal Trainer.

South Wales based Indie-Rock outfit Ratoon consists of Eifion Davies (Vocals, Rhythm Guitar), Sam Davies (Lead Guitar), Matti Huxtable (Bass), & Josh Davies (Drums). Ratoon dream of bringing back the sonic style of early 2000s pop rock, with the tones of today's indie.

Looking up to the likes of McFly, Busted and Inhaler, Ratoon dropped their first EP Butterfly Effect in September 2025. By the end of its release year, Ratoon's debut EP, including songs Missing and Under My Feet, racked up over 50,000 streams. Ratoon haven't stopped there, with new single It's You releasing in February 2026, looking to replicate the success of their debut EP.
