Future Sounds

Channel 4 is delighted to announce Future Sounds, it’s inaugural list of acts that will be big for the coming year.
A key part of this initiative is the brand new television show Future Sounds, with live performances from Abbey Road by the acts on the list, huge global artists talking about why the acts on the list are important, and think pieces about various genres and how they are evolving.
Hotly tipped by critics across the board, Alessia Cara, Blossoms, Izzy Bizu and Loyle Carner are among the confirmed names for series one of Future Sounds. See them all on the show.
After recording the soundtrack to arguably the biggest advert of the year, Scandi-sensation Aurora will also perform whilst the incredible Bonkaz represents the rising grime scene.
In the wake of a summer smashing the festival circuit, Welsh rockers Pretty Vicious, producer extraordinaire SG Lewis, electronic up and comer Tala and the jawdroppingly soulful Barns Courtney all bring their magic into the studio. Future Sounds is a list that’s perfectly indicative of how the musical landscape will develop in 2016.
