Get your calendars out and your playlists ready. On March 20th, 2026, the Kirklees Most Wanted project is making its highly anticipated return to The Terrace in Dewsbury.

More than just a gig, Kirklees Most Wanted is a celebration of the sonic soul of our community. This showcase is a dedicated platform designed to amplify the most exciting local voices, offering you a front-row seat to the future of the UK music scene. From soulful R&B to high-octane rock, this lineup is a testament to the sheer diversity of talent brewing right here in Kirklees.

The Lineup: Meet Your New Favorites

Elefem

Manchester-born and Leeds-based, Elefem is a master of blending classic R&B and Soul with a sharp, modern edge. After a massive 2025 that saw her drop four singles and collaborate with the likes of Jamettone and Yelah, she arrives in Dewsbury with a reputation for captivating live sets. Whether she’s performing a stripped-back acoustic session or leading a full, jazz-infused band, her natural flair for performance is undeniable.

Ducklin Curls

If you like your Hip-Hop unpredictable and prolific, Ducklin Curls is the artist you’ve been waiting for. Drawing inspiration from the raw grit of Wu-Tang, the boundary-pushing production of The Neptunes, and the introspective depth of Mac Miller, Curls is carving out a unique space in the UK scene. He doesn’t just play music; he builds worlds.

Vazon

Prepare for things to get loud. Vazon takes the chaos of the world and converts it into high-energy, melodic rock. Frequently described as “one of the best live bands in the local scene,” they are essential listening for fans of Muse, QOTSA, and Deftones. Their sound is infectious, their energy is unmatched, and they are guaranteed to leave minds blown.

On the Decks: Fiesta La Ginger
