LISTEN: GIHE on Soho Radio with Whitelands (08.01.26)

For our first radio show of 2026, Tash and Kate were back on Soho Radio bringing listeners an eclectic mix of new music tunes from some of their favourite female, non-binary and LGBTQIA+ artists. Mari offered some of her “musical musings” too!

Etienne, Jagun & Vanessa from London-based shoegaze band Whitelands also joined the team live on air to talk about their highly anticipated upcoming second album, Sunlight Echoes – due on 30th January via Sonic Cathedral.

The trio reflected on how far they’ve come since they were guests on our show back in 2024, as well as the the many ways in which the band have developed and expanded their sound over the past two years. They also shared the poignant inspiration behind their latest single ‘Blankspace‘ and spoke openly about the themes of friendship, grief and memory which heavily influenced the songwriting on Sunlight Echoes.

Whitelands are currently gearing up for their first ever UK headline tour, including a show at Moth Club in East London on 26th February. Grab a ticket here.
