The Lab · Northampton

Picky New Promotions are proud to present Northampton's own LATENT DREAM for a headline show at The Lab on Fri Nov 13. Latent Dream are a four-piece alternative rock band known for their anthemic “big tune” sound.

With each show and new track, Latent Dream continue to refine their identity and grow their audience, cementing themselves as one of the most exciting emerging acts in their scene.

Picky New Promotions present MEGAPHONEY

The Lab · Northampton

Picky New Promotions are proud to bring you a headline show featuring Northampton's own local hero MEGAPHONEY on Fri, Nov 20, at The Lab, Megaphoney is the solo project of Northampton-born singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Peter Marchant, whose uplifting, nostalgic songwriting draws deeply from the classic rock and singer-songwriter records that shaped his musical upbringing. Raised on a soundtrack of 1970s icons alongside his older brother and creative collaborator Matt, Marchant developed a love for timeless melodies, rich arrangements and emotionally resonant storytelling that now sit at the heart of Megaphoney's sound. Following the tragic loss of Matt in 2019, Marchant embarked on a deeply personal journey of artistic growth, reconnecting with the musical roots the brothers shared while forging a voice distinctly his own. Performing almost every instrument on his recordings, Megaphoney's music stands as a testament to the enduring power of inspiration, love and human connection, transforming personal loss into songs filled with warmth, hope and heart. On stage, Marchant is a magnetic and larger-than-life performer. Armed with a remarkable four-octave vocal range, the...
