Laurence Parker-Brown, of BEATtheMIX, said: "After recording their debut EP at Red Room Studios, in Brighton, in the summer last year, they have gone from strength to strength, developing a mature and directed sound."

The band will compete against other BEATtheMIX chart-toppers, including Rubylux, Rizzle and Tribal Vibe, for the titles of best band and original act. There will also be a best solo act category.
