Our regular run-down of as many of the Bloodstock bands as we can get to talk to us! Sleep In Motion (a former Headline Act) play the New Blood stage on the Friday…
Simple things first – where are you guys from?
We’re all from Nottingham.
How long have you been playing together as a band?
We’ve been together just over 2 and a half years now! It feels like a lifetime!
Describe your music. What makes you unique?
I think live our set is very diverse, I wouldn’t say we stick to one particular sound throughout the set there’s definitely different vibes in different tracks, it’s the same with the album really, personally I didn’t want to write a straight metal or rock album, I wanted it to be diverse and catch people off guard.
What’s your live show like? Why are people going to watch you instead of another band?
Energetic, loud and a good laugh. We don’t take ourselves too seriously and we love to joke around on stage and with you guys too.
Have you been to Bloodstock before? What did you think?
This is all of our first time at Bloodstock so we are really looking forward to the weekend!

Which M2tM region did you win, or did you come through other channels?
We didn’t actually partake in M2tM, we were lucky enough to be offered a spot through Simon which we are incredibly grateful for.
Can you put into 10 words or fewer how it felt when you realised you were heading to Bloodstock?
We were really, really, really, really, really, really, really, grateful.
What sort of setlist can we expect?
Energetic and exciting. We’ll give it all we’ve got.
Stage times haven’t been announced yet, so which other band do you most hope you’re not clashing with so you can see them play?
Ryan: Architects! I’d love to catch their set if we can.
What are you working on at the moment?
we’re underway writing our second album, we want to take our time to really craft something we are extremely excited to release so we are taking our time and really scrutinising our songwriting and pushing our own boundaries on what we have done before. It’s exciting.
What drink do you throw back to get yourself fired up before going on stage?
We’re suckers for a couple of beers before we go on.
Don’t fancy Patreon? Buy us a one-off beverage!
