Healer
BBC MUSIC INTRODUCING STAGE
8:45pm - 9:15pm
Emerging from Grimsby in 2022, HEALER quickly earned a reputation on the local scene – even opening for Britpop legends Sleeper and indie rockers Trampolene in their first year. The five-piece soon found their self-released tracks getting regular spins on BBC Music Introducing and Amazing Radio, and they landed a spot on This Feeling’s "Best New Bands" playlist. By 2024, HEALER was hitting festival stages alongside major acts like Razorlight, Frank Turner, Feeder and The View. Their anthemic singles “Wake Me Up” and “War” earned playlist features (Amazing Radio’s Hot New Indie, This Feeling’s Track of the Day) . Throughout 2025, HEALER have released a string of singles, culminating in the release of their debut EP ‘Black & Blue’, with singles ‘London Town’, ‘Bad Patterns’ and ‘We Follow’ all getting regular airtime on BBC Music Introducing and Amazing Radio.
“HEALER are really knocking it out of the park this year with their new tunes ... back-to-back classics, all raising the bar to the next.” - Jericho Keys, BBC Music Introducing.
What started in a humble fishing town has grown into a rising force on the indie/alt-rock scene, and HEALER are ready to enter 2026 with the confidence and momentum of a band ready for the big leagues.
