Named as NME’s Best New Artist of 2016, Rat Boy (aka Jordan Cardy) combines alternative rock, accented British vocals and a penchant for rapping, making him reminiscent of the sort of vital rock music that brought Jamie T to fame. Catch him and his newest album, Internationally Unknown, when he arrives in Guangzhou this weekend.
