Hailing from the scenic town of Malvern, Linkwells are a four-piece indie rock band that recently signed with producer Nick Brine’s (Oasis, The Stone Roses, Bruce Springsteen) Flip Flop Records, and are gaining attention for their distinctive, melody-driven sound combining the anthemic energy of Britpop.
With a strong run of releases planned over the coming months, the band are focused on expanding their recorded output and reaching new audiences. Featuring Keith Forde (vocals, guitars), Mike Bannister (guitar), Andy D (bass, vocals) and James Elliot-Williams (drums), Linkwells already have six singles and an EP under their belt, with another single ‘Can’t Chase Yesterday’ due this week.
Described as a vibrant anthem about living in the moment, ‘Can’t Chase Yesterday’ celebrates the power of embracing the present rather than dwelling on the past. The song encourages listeners to let go of what’s gone, celebrate today, and welcome new experiences with optimism, openness, and a sense of adventure toward the opportunities the future holds.

“Pushing Me Away is a deeply emotional track that explores the struggle of connecting with someone who’s emotionally distant, while also reflecting on the broader theme of fitting into society,” said the band.
“The song touches on the challenges of opening up in a world where vulnerability can feel risky and how emotional barriers often keep us from forming deeper connections. With a hopeful message of patience, understanding and growth, it emphasises the transformative power of vulnerability in building trust and healing relationships.”
Already gaining listeners internationally, with exciting plans ahead, keep your ears tuned for what’s next from Linkwells.
