Based in Sussex, Down In Motion channel a unique fusion of influences from the ’90s, 2000s, and beyond, crafting a sound that dodges traditional labels and leaves listeners wanting more.

Since forming in 2023, Down In Motion quickly stamped themselves a melodic powerhouse by blending pop-punk urgency, alternative-rock crunch, emo heart, post-hardcore bite, and indie-rock flair. Tom’s smooth-to-soaring vocals (and subtle synth flourishes) ride Andy’s driving guitars and Jaz’s thundering bass, all locked down by powerhouse drummer Michael.

These lifelong bandmates—hailed as a Sussex “local super-group”—have already turned heads with playlist-breaking debut “Into the River.” Their latest single, “Swim Fast,” hits even harder, proving the quartet’s staying power. Expect hook-laden earworms, boundary-pushing shows, and more releases through 2025 as Down In Motion continue to redefine their musical landscape.
