Unforgettable Vigilantes Ear Worm Sinks into Darwen

Next up on the Neotribe Introductions are Vigilantes, a Powerful Indie Rock coming from the most divided town in the UK.
Vigilantes craft a thoughtful, melodic style of indie rock that’s as anthemic as it is atmospheric with thoughtful lyricism and explosive choruses. Their latest EP ‘Sink’ was released in July and boy is that song one hell of an ear worm that will have fans of Sam Fender, The Strokes and The Killers hungry for more.
Local and National Radio play on Radio 1’s Best Of BBC Introducing playlist and had repeat airtime on BBC Radio 1, Radio 6 & Radio X, as well as being Noted by Fresh on the Net’s Tom Robinson as ‘On a mission.
Vigilantes were part of National Lottery/MVT’s Revive Live Tour in 2022 and have several dates across some of the countries most celebrated grassroots music venues in support of the release of their debut album ‘Golden Record’ out released on 5th September 2025.
After a lot of introspection and staring into the mirror, Vigilantes have independently achieved success and fought their way out of a cultural desert to perform at Radio 1’s Big Weekend, Isle of Wight Festival, SXSW and support acts like Circa Waves, The Libertines and Reverend & the Makers.
