Red Bull Studios tips artists for 2015 with 'The Launched List'
Featuring Years & Years, Wolf Alice + more
Black Honey: Morricone-esque widescreen sounds, straight outta Brighton - Black Honey are a group that will be massive before you know it. Breaking new ground by looking backwards, their sound has a remarkably plush and throwback quality to it, producing tracks that could equally work on the new season of Twin Peaks or on a festival main stage. Listen to 'Teenager' or 'Sleep Forever' and get acquainted.

This afternoon saw Red Bull Studios announce 'The Launch List', a shortlist of new bands the company thinks are going to be big in 2015.
Similar to the BBC Sound of 2015 poll, a small selection of artists have been tipped to have a big year, with the likes of Years & Years, Wolf Alice, and Shura featuring on the list.
Staying true to Red Bull Studio's broad musical interest, the list features artists from across a wealth of genres, from spoken word prodigy George The Poet through to experimental alternative artist Jack Garratt.
Brits critics choice nominees Years & Years also feature, along with Dornik, James Bay, Josef Salvat, Little Simz, Shura, Seinabo Sey and Wolf Alice.
Watch Years & Years' video for 'Desire' below:
To coincide with the announcement, a TV show will also air on Channel 4 next month, featuring in depth interviews and performances from the ten featured artists.
