Over the last few years, Nova Twins have become one of the most celebrated and transformative forces in contemporary music. Since bursting out of the independent UK scene, the Mercury Music Prize and two-time BRIT Award nominees have rewritten the rulebook of what a modern rock band can achieve. They’ve dominated iconic festivals from the UK’s Glastonbury to Japan’s Summer Sonic and shared stages with legends like Foo Fighters, Muse, and Bring Me The Horizon.
Praised by icons like Tom Morello (“an incredible band”) and Elton John (“phenomenal”), the duo has graced the covers of Kerrang!, NME, and Alternative Press, while collecting accolades from the Women in Music Awards, AIM Awards, and the Nordoff & Robbins Awards, to name a few. Their Mercury Music Prize shortlisting in 2022 inked Love and South’s names in the history books as the first black rock band to receive a nomination, a victory not just for the duo, but for music culture itself.
Renowned for their electrifying live performances, Nova Twins are equally celebrated for their singular sound. Every note is the product of real instrumentation—bass and guitar teased, pulled, pushed, and manipulated through tap-dancing across an expansive pedalboard. Paired with a rich, inventive vocal approach, their music achieves an unmistakable identity without a synthesizer in sight.
Born and raised where south-east London bleeds into Essex, the childhood friends spent their early years sketching and crafting, both literally and figuratively, the Nova universe. Family around them instilled the grit, belief, and determination needed to navigate an unforgiving world, along with the smarts to do so on their own terms and by their own design. When faced with an industry that failed to reflect or support what they saw in the mirror, young, female people of colour, Nova Twins were inspired to effect positive change. Their campaigning in 2022 led to the MOBO Awards recognising alternative music with its own category for the first time, while also establishing the Nova Twins Creative Musicianship Scholarship at ICMP, funding three years of tuition for aspiring musicians.
Now entering a bold new era, Nova Twins have unveiled “Monsters,” a blistering statement of intent that combines roaring power with honest vulnerability, offering a glimpse of what’s to come. With an album on the horizon, South and Love are poised to push boundaries further, elevating their genre-defying sound to new and exhilarating heights.
