Nova Twins

Over the last few years, Nova Twins have become one of the most vital and transformative forces in contemporary music. Since breaking out of the UK’s independent scene, the Mercury Music Prize and two-time BRIT Award nominees - and 2026 MOBO Award winners for Best Alternative Music Act - have rewritten the rulebook of what a modern rock band can achieve. Praised by icons like Tom Morello and Elton John, they’ve dominated festivals from the UK’s Glastonbury to Japan’s Summer Sonic and shared stages with legends like Foo Fighters, Yungblud, and Bring Me The Horizon. Their 2022 Mercury Music Prize shortlisting inked Love and South’s names in the history books as the first black rock band to receive a nomination, a win not just for the duo, but for music culture itself. Renowned for their electrifying live performances, Nova Twins are equally acclaimed for their singular sound. Every note is crafted through real instrumentation, with bass and guitar pushed and manipulated across expansive pedalboards, paired with a rich, inventive vocal approach that creates an unmistakable identity without a synthesiser in sight. Now entering a bold new era, Nova Twins have released their third album, Parasites & Butterflies, a record that bridges chaos and beauty, strength and vulnerability, pushing their genre-defying sound to new heights as they continue to disrupt, redefine, and inspire.
