Jetta is the rising soul star on the UK music industry's lips. Having nailed showcases on both sides of the Atlantic, she's readying material for her debut album. But, as she tells Getintothis' Sean Bradbury, it's her Merseyside roots which have led to this riotous musical uprising.

Wave Machines caused pop ripples with their debut album both sides of the pond before disappearing for several years. They returned this year with new album Pollen, and a distinctly nuanced darker sound. They talk to Getintothis' Orla Foster about how Truman Capote influenced their moody, melancholic material.

Nadine Carina has been quietly weaving an intricate tapestry of spellbinding music in her adopted home town of Liverpool for several years. The Swiss-born songwriter specialises in textured found sounds and mesmerising folk noise. She tells Getintothis' Tom Dani, 'I like to write about things I don't understand'.

Clinic are Liverpool's alt-rock cult legends. Since 1997 they've been making fiercely progressive music which is as unique as it is breathtaking. Last year they released Free Reign, their seventh, and arguably their finest, studio album. Still relevant and still doing it their way, they tell Getintothis' Alan O'Hare we've always followed our own path and it's nice to get recognition for that.
