Line Up

FIN is a Surrey-based indie rock and alternative artist, blending powerful vocals with guitar-driven arrangements. His music is rooted in emotionally honest songwriting, with strong, narrative-led lyrics and a distinctive lyrical voice. Drawing influence from indie, modern alternative, and stripped-back rock, FIN creates a sound that moves between intimate, vulnerable moments and more energetic, powerful sections.

As a live performer, FIN delivers expressive and engaging sets, focusing on connection and atmosphere as much as musicality. He has performed at venues including HMV Woking, as well as festivals, street parties, and a range of local events, building a growing reputation as a compelling solo act with a distinctive voice and style.

Matty Long is releasing his long awaited first EP.

The Putney native Singer Songwriter has been gigging around London since the age of 17 and is playing his second home the Half Moon for the launch of his first EP “Ruby Funk”.

Matty will be recording the live set, so audience members will be a little part of history and on Spotify forever. (So please lots of heckling).

Musician Rosie Smith (22) from Glastonbury is poised for success with the release of her upcoming debut album ‘Face’. She has relished a restless year in which she performed at Glastonbury Festival for the first time and went on tour with Scouting For Girls. Next year is expected to be exceedingly busy for her as we await her album and many more live shows. Signed to label X&Y records, Rosie Smith made her mark with a debut single Breakfast For Dinner Tonight , following that with the live favourite Dirty Harry Rosie, a talented actress, once appeared with David Tenant in Broadchurch. She is influenced by the likes of Fleetwood Mac, The Lumineers, Ed Sheeran, Billie Eilish and John Denver and has been described as ' an exceptionally gifted lyricist who writes beautifully pertinent songs that express purpose, intent and meaning." Of her music Rosie says: “I play the guitar, piano, drums and a little bass and trumpet. I love finding obscure ways to play chords and melodic patterns and I am fascinated by harmonies. I would describe my music style as storytelling in a commercial way. I guess it’s folky pop with a twist! "Because of my own life experiences, I hope my music is a kind of self-help guide for other young adults struggling with love, friendship, upheaval and grief.”

Paper Dahlia: A musical project by two Putney locals Nazia Hussein (vocals) and Matt Nemitz (guitar/keys and vocals). For nearly two years Naz and Matt have been writing and recording original songs, blending rich vocal harmony with lyrical hooks drawing on 80s and 90s classics.

This is their debut performance at the Half Moon with an EP to be released later this year.

Modern Syndicate are a three piece bandformed in South East London, who fuse indie rock, post punk and classic power pop. Their original songs are lyrically acerbic, sarcastic and on the odd occasion witty, all backed with an unrelenting rhythm section. For jivers and pogo-ers alike.

Keegan McInroe is a writer, musician. and international touring artist based in Fort Worth, Texas. Neon John, McInroe's 8th studio album, releases February 13, 2026. Keeping in spirit with his predecessor troubadouring minstrels, Keegan has spent the better part of the last two decades traversing the roads, wildernesses, and cities of the Old World andNew, weaving the resulting experiences and observations together with varied influences from folk, country, and the blues to create an original and evolving tapestry of lyric-driven American roots music. McInroe has shared the stage with Leon Russell, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Willis Alan Ramsey, Otis Taylor, Carolyn Wonderland, IanMoore, Shovels & Rope, Kaitlin Butts, Charley Crockett, and others. He has been published in various papers and magazines for his travel writings, stories, poems, and occasional forays into politics. Additionally, he has hosted The Keegan McInroe Radio Hour and The Uncouth Pilgrim Podcast, both of which are currently on indefinite hiatus.

Raised in the South West of the UK and now based in London, Tom Corscadden is an alternative/art rock artist whose music fuses emotional intensity with sharp social critique. Inspired by Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails, Muse, and Queens of the Stone Age, his sound blends cinematic textures, driving guitars, and haunting atmospheres. Corscadden’s debut album, With Intent, is his boldest statement yet, a visceral exploration of the illusions, pressures, and contradictions of modern life. Across tracks like Blind, Replica, Black Reverie and Broken Mirror Crown, he confronts themes of denial, futility, self-hate, and powerlessness, all framed through what he calls “the world behind the mirror.” Alongside the record, Corscadden is releasing With Intent (A Film) - a short conceptual film in three acts that blends performance, poetry, and striking imagery to mirror the album’s journey. Together, the album and film cement his vision as a multidisciplinary artist pushing the boundaries of alt-rock storytelling. Before stepping into his solo project, Corscadden was the creative force behind Opal Skies, which gained support on BBC Radio 1. He has also worked as a studio engineer in London with renowned artists, experiences that shaped both his sound and approach. Now, with With Intent, he delivers his most personal and uncompromising work to date, a record made to resonate with anyone questioning the system they find themselves in.

Originally French, Jeanne Wilde has now been in England for 9 years, moving from Brighton to London, to embrace the best music scene. From performing across Europe, to appearing at renowned festivals and iconic venues including the Dublin Castle, the New Morning, the Phoenix Arts Club, the Camden Club or the Bedford; Jeanne Wilde is known for her remarkable ability to improvise effortlessly and at length across any genre, she attributes this skill to her synaesthesia, experiencing music visually, as if watching a film. For her, composing is a form of cinematic storytelling. 

One of her songs was recently broadcast on BBC introducing: Song for the most beautiful woman in the world.
