Rudimental’s emotive, high-energy sound has made them a hugely influential dance act and taken them to chart-topping success.

Known for their hits ‘Feel The Love’, ‘Not Giving In’ and ‘Waiting All Night’, Rudimental have enjoyed plenty of crossover success since their debut album ‘Home’ was released in 2013.

Blending driving breakbeats with powerful, expressive vocals, their instinct for collaboration and melody helped them connect with audiences far beyond the club scene, creating anthems that resonate just as strongly on festival stages.

They’ve achieved extraordinary global success: multiple chart entries, two #1 albums, three #1 singles, more than 5 billion streams, platinum-selling releases and world tours that have cemented their reputation as one of the biggest names in Drum & Bass. Their continued presence in Spotify’s top 10 most-streamed DnB artists speaks of their enduring impact and ability to reach new generations of fans.
