Lynney Williamson
(ELR Artist)
I am Lynne from Glasgow, Scotland.
I am currently based in Mount Florida just outside Glasgow.
My music inspiration comes from growing up listening to bands like INXS, FLEETWOODMAC, HEART and the PRETENDERS and I am also inspired by movies like THE CRAFT, HIGHFIDELITY, LOST BOYS and THE CROW.
"Shadows" is my first musical project and I'm really excited about people hearing it.
I had a lot of soul searching writing this song, as it's about taking your light to guide someone else out of the darkness.
I am motivated by loving each day and knowing we are only here for a short time so believe in yourself. The theme to listen for is those mystical dreamy vocals that I love so much.

Rebekah Knight
(ELR Artist)
Rebekah Knight is a soul-led music artist, singer-songwriter, yoga instructor,
and life coach who channels raw emotion and spiritual insight into her evocative
soundscapes. Born into a musical family in Wales, Rebekah’s journey has taken her from the misty coasts of the UK to the vibrant deserts of Dubai, where she infuses her music with themes of feminine empowerment, transformation, and healing.
Her work turns personal pain into powerful anthems, blending haunting melodies with introspective lyrics that resonate on a deeply human level—spanning ethereal ballads to thunderous metal riffs. As a shamanic life
coach and founder of the Dark Knight Academy, Rebekah not only creates music but also guides other creatives in harnessing their stories for self-expression and growth.
Rebekah Knight’s musical odyssey began in the rolling hills of Wales, surrounded by a family steeped in melody and rhythm. From an early age, she was immersed in songwriting and performance, but life’s winding path led her far from home—through bustling cities and sun scorched landscapes—to Dubai, where she rediscovered her voice amid cultural crossroads.
A certified yoga instructor and shamanic coach, Rebekah’s artistry is as much about inner alchemy as it is about sonic beauty. Her songs explore the raw edges of the soul: the emergence from darkness, the roar of feminine strength, and the quiet power of rebirth.
After years of independently releasing introspective albums like Feminine Roar (2024) and Awaken the Serpent (2025), Rebekah signed with the independent London-based label East London Recordings in early 2025—a pivotal moment that amplified her reach while staying true to her authentic roots. Her label debut, Emergence, dropped on August 30, 2025, marking a sonic evolution that fuses ethereal spirituality with heavy metal intensity.
Tracks like “Unbound” and “Siren” capture her signature blend of vulnerability and ferocity, earning streams across platforms.
Rebekah’s music isn’t just heard—it’s felt. As she shared in a recent interview on the Sounds Like Us podcast: “My family’s musical legacy gave me the tools, but living across worlds taught me the stories. I write to remind us that pain is the forge for power.” Whether coaching through her Dark Knight Academy or performing live, Rebekah inspires a global tribe of dreamers to embrace their wild, untamed selves.
Smithy's Peyote Garden
(ELR Artist)
Bringing the psychedelica to Scotland! - Single "Shine On Me" has just been released with an EP following soon thanks to ELR (East London Recordings).
The New Serpents
(ELR Artist)
The New Serpents are a dynamic alternative rock band from the UK, channeling the raw
energy of Britpop icons like The Beatles, Oasis, and Wings into fresh, original anthems.
Formed as a Beatles tribute project by frontman Jay, the band quickly evolved into a
powerhouse of psychedelic-tinged rock, blending infectious hooks, gritty guitars, and
heartfelt lyrics that capture the chaos and romance of modern life.
With a sound that’s organic, spontaneous, and unpolished—recorded in home studios with minimal overdubs— The New Serpents deliver songs that feel both timeless and urgently contemporary.
Drawing inspiration from the leather-clad biker gang in Netflix’s Riverdale (hence the
“Serpents” moniker, with “New” added for flair), the band has built a grassroots following through relentless gigging and digital releases. They’ve graced the hallowed stages of Liverpool’s Cavern Club (birthplace of The Beatles) and busked along the Mersey, even performing in the very church hall where John Lennon and Paul McCartney first jammed.
Whether belting out originals or covers like Oasis’s “Little by Little” and “Soldier On” The
Beatles “Don’t let me down” or the multitude of other covers they preform, The New
Serpents embody the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll rebellion—fun, fearless, and always evolving.
Band Members:-
Jay (Vocals, Guitar, Songwriter): The creative force behind the band’s psychedelic
edge, and the driving force behind all they do, Jay’s demos and original songs spark
the magic, blending Beatles-esque melodies with Oasis grit. A prolific writer who has
written for musicians world wide, he thrives on quick-turnaround sessions.
Ben (Multi-Instrumentalist): The perfectionist, handling piano arrangements, effects, bass and guitar. His influences shine in tracks like “Rotten Meat,” packing a punch with layered guitars and reverb-drenched atmospheres.
Celeste (Drums): The rhythmic heartbeat, bringing power and precision to live sets.
Her beats drive the band’s high-energy anthems, from mid-tempo ballads to full
throttle rockers.
