The Guest List

Formed in 2021, The Guest List quickly made a name for themselves in the Manchester music scene with mature lyricism, energetic performances, and a growing fan base. The band features Cai Alty (vocals/guitar), Tom Quigley (lead guitar), Sid Wallace (bass), Angus Gilchrist (drums), and Leio Hunter (rhythm guitar). Their blend of melodic riffs and relatable lyrics helped them stand out early on. In 2024, tracks London and Loose Tongue, produced by James Skelly of The Coral, boosted their presence. Both songs were featured by BBC Radio 6 Music’s Chris Hawkins as Track of the Dawn. The Guest List also built a strong online following, with over 400,000 TikTok followers and nearly 8 million likes. Their Spotify listeners continue to grow. They've supported major indie acts like Two Door Cinema Club, The Wombats, Inhaler, Blossoms, and Seb Lowe. Recently, they sold out their first UK headline tour. In summer 2025, they’ll play major UK festivals including NBHD Weekender, Kendal Calling, Truck Festival, Y-Not, and Victorious. With a dedicated fan base, The Guest List are fast becoming one of the UK’s most exciting new bands.
