Pillow Fort + What It Means + TBC

Nottingham alt-emo trio Pillow Fort bring together the raw emotion of DIY emo with the urgency of punk, jagged guitars and flashes of math-rock energy. Known for their heartfelt, conversational songwriting and explosive live sound, the band have carved out their place in the UK DIY scene with music that can switch effortlessly between vulnerability, melody and cathartic noise.

Following two acclaimed EPs and shows across the UK, Pillow Fort returned in 2026 with a new chapter, delivering some of their most immediate and emotionally charged material yet. Recent singles “Codename Kids Next Year” and “Robots Vs Wrestlers” lead into their debut album Indefinite, but not Forever, due for release in October 2026 through the band's own Cushion Castle label.

Expect an energetic, emotionally charged live set packed with driving guitars, huge drums, melodic hooks and the kind of beautifully messy sincerity that makes emo hit exactly where it should.
