Blossoms take fourth place on the BBC Sound Of 2016 shortlist
Indie-rockers Blossoms are fourth place in this year's BBC Sound Of shortlist.
Yesterday, Mura Masa and WSTRN were jointly placed fifth.
Stockport-born Blossoms draw from classic pop and rock influences like The Beatles, but also from the soundtrack to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and a desire to make people dance. They make fuzzy, feelgood tunes with killer licks and choruses that ooze energy.

Last year's BBC Sound Of winners were dance-pop trio Years & Years, who went on to release debut album Communion over the summer.
