by ROSTR
Neck Deep signed with Andrew Jarrin & Jason Mageau of Culture Wave & Red Light Management.
Neck Deep are released by Hopeless Records & booked by Wasserman Music/IAG.
Neck Deep is a Welsh pop punk band formed in 2012 in Wrexham, Wales. The band was founded by lead vocalist Ben Barlow and former lead guitarist Lloyd Roberts after Barlow posted songs online. The early lineup included rhythm guitarist Matt West, drummer Dani Washington, and bassist Fil Thorpe-Evans. They gained early attention with their EPs "Rain in July" and "A History of Bad Decisions," leading to a signing with Hopeless Records in 2013. The band released their debut album "Wishful Thinking" in 2014, which propelled them into the pop punk spotlight. Over the years, the lineup evolved, with Sam Bowden replacing Lloyd Roberts on lead guitar, Seb Barlow (Ben's brother) joining on bass, and Matt Powles on drums. Neck Deep is known for their energetic sound and heartfelt lyrics, with albums including "Life's Not Out to Get You" (2015) and "The Peace and the Panic" (2017). They have won multiple awards, such as Kerrang! Awards for Best British Newcomer and Best Single, and maintain a strong presence in the modern pop punk scene.

Coming Soon: NIF & ROSTR GRAMMY Voter Guide
Nov 13, 2025
This year we're introducing the NIF & ROSTR GRAMMY Voter Guide. A fully interactive, digital-first, modern guide for GRAMMY voters (and industry observers).
🚫 No opinion, no fluff… no glossy photoshoots of the suits behind the scenes.
The guide covers all 95 categories, 497 nominations & 755 nominees and contributors. Everything is linked so voters can explore the awards, the nominations, the data, and the people credited – all in one place. We're even including media so people can actually, you know, listen to the nominations.
The guide will be supported by FYC ads, but we're doing it differently:
Category-exclusive FYC – if you buy a category, you’re the only FYC ad on that category’s pages. No clutter, no competing ads. Pricing sensitive to category prominence.
Context + intent – FYC ads run exactly where voters are comparing options in your category, not font-loaded on pages everyone flips past.
Non-intrusive + tasteful – Readers come first, because, if you want someone to see your ad, they need to actually be paying attention in the first place.
First come, first served – once a category’s sold, it’s sold.
