Polyvinyl are a Newcastle indie alternative rock band blending post-punk new-wave energy with theatrical rock music, known for concept-driven live performances. Since 2022, they have gained recognition with the award-winning 'Modern Art People' (North East Track of the Year) and debut EP 'Closure' exploring grief. In 2026, a refreshed lineup delivers a bigger, cinematic sound on second concept EP and short film 'Where This Ends' (releasing May 2026), produced by Lisa Murphy (Lizzie Esau, Melanie Baker) and Paul Gregory (Lanterns on the Lake, Mercury Prize nominee), mastered by Kate Tavini (We Are Scientists, Bloc Party).
