Split Chain Live in Southampton

Split Chain, the English rock band formed in Bristol in 2023, bring their distinctive blend of nu metal and shoegaze—a sound they call "dreamo"—to Southampton for a headline show. The band, comprising vocalist Bert Martínez-Cowles, bassist Tom Davies, drummer Aaron Black, and guitarists Oli Bowles and Jake Reid, have been building momentum since their debut single "Get Inside" in 2023.

Attendees can expect a set drawing from their debut album *Motionblur* (released July 2025 on Epitaph Records) and earlier EPs like *SC.001*, which collects their singles from 2023 and 2024. The band has toured extensively across the UK, Europe, and the US, opening for acts such as A Day to Remember and Superheaven, and appearing at festivals like Download and Mystic Festival.

With their genre-defying fusion of heavy riffs and ethereal textures, Split Chain offer a live experience that appeals to fans of nu-gaze and grungegaze alike. This Southampton date is a chance to catch a rising force in the UK rock scene up close.
