ABOUT BLACK COAST Black Coast are a heavy music band from Stoke-on-Trent, England, formed in January 2016 from the ashes of local projects Bet It All and Dead City Souls. The five-piece comprising Charlie Hewitt (vocals), Scott Pinnington (guitar), Joe Mayer (guitar), Jack Beardsall (bass), and Matty Clark (drums) blend hardcore intensity with grunge textures, groove-driven riffs, and nu-metal aggression. Their debut album Outworld (2021) and self-titled EP (2023) established Black Coast as a band unafraid to confront internal darkness, with lyrics centered on mental health, emotional barriers, and the struggle for authentic self-expression. Produced by Sam Bloor at Lower Lane Studios, their catalog has earned over 4 million streams and 130K YouTube views to date. Live, Black Coast are known for visceral, emotionally raw performances that prioritize connection over spectacle. They continue to champion Stoke-on-Trent’s thriving music scene while advocating for men’s mental health awareness. |
