Infectiously energetic, empowering & badass are some of the words used to describe the dynamic melodic alt-rock force, ‘REWS’, helmed by the multi-instrumentalist, Northern Irish songstress, Shauna Tohill & a revolving cast of musical friends.

REWS exploded onto the international live circuit in 2017 with debut ‘Pyro’, released via Marshall Records, leading to extensive touring across the UK, including support for Halestorm & The Darkness, as well as critically acclaimed performances at festivals such as Glastonbury Festival.

2020 saw the release of highly anticipated sophomore album ‘Warriors’, received with relief during the global pandemic. This release solidified several high profile UK festival slots including 2000 Trees & Y Not Festival 2022 as well as international praise on radio, TV & online.

To date, REWS has amassed over 10 million streams and her music is continually championed by a number of international DJs, with great taste, on BBC Radio 1, Kerrang! Radio, Radio X (UK), RTÉ 1 (Ireland), Amazing Radio (UK & USA), InterFM** (Japan) and Radio Freccia (Italy). Latest singles ‘Breathe Into Me’, "Pretty Face", "The World That You Left Behind" and Misery, released via Earache Records DD have gained extensive support from Kerrang! Radio, Amazing Radio, BBC Radio 1 and RTÉ.

REWS is gearing up for the release of a new album **"Meridians" in autumn 2023. But first, the release of "Not Your Soldier" is set for 12th May 2023 and marks another exciting chapter in REWS' already impressive career. The band has consistently delivered catchy, high-energy music with a message, and "Not Your Soldier" promises to be no different. Fans of the band and newcomers alike will want to mark May 12th on their calendars to experience this powerful new single.
