Carrying the torch for everything that is great about Manchester’s rock scene”
– Guy Garvey, BBC Radio 6

“There is a complexity to the songs almost beyond their years”
– Iain Key, Louder Than War

Bursting onto the scene with a string of singles, Manchester’s Arkayla and their powerful songwriting and dynamic live sell-out performances have seen them receive nods from CLASH, 1883, Earmilk, Radio X’s John Kennedy and BBC Radio London’s Gary Crowley. Since their formation, Arkayla have quickly gained a widespread reputation for their whirlwind brand of layered guitar tones and telling lyrics. Their dreamlike musical innovations are inspired by a decade-spanning set of influences, with each member bringing their own unique flare to the table.
