Brighton-based / Anglo-Maltese outfit ĠENN is: Janelle Borg – guitars (she/her), Sofia Rosa Cooper – drums (she/they), Leona Farrugia – Vocals (she/they), and Leanne Zammit – bass (she/her).

ĠENN is a self-described sisterhood founded on instinctive trust, their bold move to the UK mirrored by their 2023 debut album ‘unum’ (a Latin word for oneness and unity). The album gained particular praise from BBC 6Music & KEXP for its ambitious negotiation of the band’s diverse roots - with a track-list that journeys through experimental rock, post-punk and Mediterranean folk. The collaborative video for single ‘The Sister Of’ also achieved a UK Music Video Award nomination for its cinematography.

"Complex, ambitious... with the chaotic energy of an informal jam" PITCHFORK

It’s little surprise that this has led to diverse invitations onto an international stage, appearing at renowned showcase festivals such as Eurosonic (NL) and The Great Escape (UK), alongside tours with Sub Pop Noise Rock heavyweights METZ, burgeoning post-punkers Deadletter and global art collective Pussy Riot.
