Manchester five-piece The Guest List have officially entered their next chapter with the release of their ambitious debut album, Something Real. Out now, the 11-track record captures a band rapidly expanding beyond their early indie beginnings, combining huge guitar-driven anthems with more intimate moments of vulnerability and reflection. Having spent much of 2026 building momentum on stages across the UK and overseas, the album arrives at a pivotal moment for a band increasingly establishing themselves as one of the country’s most exciting emerging guitar acts.

Greg Freeman has shared Cahokia, the ferocious opening track from his forthcoming third album, All Set The Bone, due for release on 2nd October.

The Oxford-formed band will visit Newcastle, Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester, Nottingham, Birmingham, London, Bristol and Portsmouth, bringing their celebrated catalogue back to venues around the country following their hugely successful return to live performance in recent years.
