The Pavilion are a Bristol based indie-rock quartet consisting of Rhys Smedley on vocals and rhythm guitar, Finn Brake on lead guitar, Tom Phillips on bass, and Ben Mitchell on drums.

After forming whilst at university, and connecting through the networking app, Vampr, they played their debut headline gig at The Louisiana in May 2023.Their debut single, 'City Lights' followed later in the year, alongside plenty more shows across the city, including Rough Trade, The Blue Lagoon and The Thunderbolt.

Sophomore single, 'Window Watching', reflecting on a relationship and being happy to let go and move on, saw out a stellar first year for The Pavilion. Now, the band are beginning to tease their upcoming debut EP, festival slots, after just having played The Golden Lion, as well as headlining Bristol's HMV.
