Fresh off the back of their recent guitar-laden hits ‘kill me’ and ‘Breathe’, East London DIY upstarts bby release their new single ‘Fucked Up’.
‘Fucked Up’ confronts the notion that you’re only yourself when you’re fucked up and highlights the juxtaposition of how those highs and lows can make you feel – from the celebration of going out, letting go and feeling your true self amongst friends to the darkness and isolation a hangover can bring.

After meeting on the internet over a shared love of music, bby emerged seemingly out of nowhere in 2023, with the release of ‘hotline’, which saw them play to a packed crowd at Leeds Festival, perform at the coveted BBC Maida Vale Sessions, named ‘Introducing Track of the Week’ on BBC Radio 1 and chart in the Top 25 on the USA Alt Radio chart.
Since then, the band have continued to build up a steady fan-base through the release of culturally on-point songs like ‘money body’, ‘gold teeth & fenty’, ‘u come near’, ‘kill me’ and ‘Breathe’ while creating their own cult-like scene via their insanely popular house party ‘hangs’ at their East London HQ. The chaos they create at these shows is tangible and has fans flocking to them, which in turn informs the music bby make: the fans, the space, the sweat, the vibe, the music – it all comes together as one.
Now, bby are taking their raucous show on the road to hit summer festivals all over the UK and Europe, including Pitchfork Festival, All Points East, TRNSMT, Kendal Calling, Boardmasters and Y Not.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
