About this concert
7:30 PM GMT
Blending psychedelic textures, jazz-inflected harmony and richly layered songwriting, Pocket Sun continue to establish themselves as one of the most distinctive acts in the UK's alternative pop scene, with a sound that feels simultaneously nostalgic and futuristic. Following their acclaimed debut album Mirror In Blue Light (2024), which received support from BBC Introducing, CLASH and NPR and introduced the band to audiences across the UK and beyond, Pocket Sun return in 2026 with their new album Watercolours. A bold evolution of their immersive, dreamlike sound. Spearheaded by vocalist and visual artist Gina Marie Tratt, Pocket Sun’s creative world is shaped by her soft vocals, visual artistry and unique vision. With guitarist and producer Laurence Fazakerley-Buglass bringing detailed production, engineering and sonic depth to the band’s evolving sound, Pocket Sun create music that balances intricate arrangements, hypnotic grooves and a deep sense of atmosphere.  Joined by Hugh Sarjeant on drums, Seb Schofield on bass and Rob Burr on keyboards, the band’s collective musicianship and creative chemistry have shaped a live show that captures the energy, colour and spontaneity of their recordings. Through dream-like melodies and lyrical explorations of escapism, consciousness and memory, Pocket Sun have built a sonic world that feels entirely their own. Their 2026 tour celebrates the release of Watercolours, inviting audiences into Pocket Sun’s most introspective and captivating chapter yet.

Artist bio
Hailing from a dreamy, synth-driven soundscape, Pocket Sun combines ethereal melodies and hypnotic grooves that invite listeners to drift into a surreal, synaesthetic experience. Fronted by vocalist and synth player Gina Marie Tratt, whose background in 70s-inspired animation shapes the band’s aesthetic, each release is a seamless fusion of sound and visual storytelling. Lyrically, Pocket Sun delves into themes of escapism, consciousness, and nostalgia, adding a poetic depth that resonates universally.

Pocket Sun’s debut full-length album, Mirror In Blue Light, released in September 2024, marks an exciting new chapter for the Bristol-based band. To celebrate its launch Pocket Sun capped off the year with a series of immersive live performances that have captivated audiences across the UK.

In the months following the release of Mirror In Blue Light, the band received significant support from the likes of CLASH, B24/7, Fame Magazine, Crack Magazine, and international radio play from Nashville to Japan. These milestones have helped build strong momentum around the album, which draws from the band’s signature blend of alternative pop, psychedelia, and jazz.

Pocket Sun’s previous EP, Binocular, featured the lead single “Wake Up,” produced by Ali Chant (known for his work with PJ Harvey, Portishead, and Gruff Rhys) and re-released on Kitsuné, aligning the band with acts like Hot Chip, La Roux, and Two Door Cinema Club. This EP helped solidify the band’s evolving sound and vision.

Alongside four years of releasing singles, EPs and their debut album, Pocket Sun has crafted a distinctive live show, featuring custom animations, slick stage-craft and even their very own scent ‘Memory Lane’.
