More Information

Beck -

Beck's rambling collage of sound is built up from cryptic Dylanesque lyrics, Delta blues, hiphop and rock'n'roll. Blended in a carefree, lo-fi style, his sound is original and has earned huge critical acclaim. Beck continues to produce innovative material and looks set to become one of his generation's great singer-songwriters.

Morrissey -

According to the song, he would go out tonight, but he hasn't got a thing to wear. It seems this lack of clothes is just one of many things that's depressed Morrissey throughout his time with The Smiths in the 80s and his solo career. Luckily for us, he's still sharing his angst via the bittersweet indie/pop stylings he's made his own. A truly tortured genius.

Dirty Pretty Things -

The new fix for Carl Barat of Libertines fame, after the well documented demise of his explosive relationship with Pete Doherty in 2004. Joined by fellow former Libertines Gary Powell and Anthony Rossomando along with Didz Hammond of The Cooper Temple Clause, their energetic punk rock fused with elements of reggae should keep fans of the Libertines satisfied.

guiLLeMoTs -

Epic, tuneful music, as bizarre as it is beautiful, guiLLeMoTs take the audience on a journey through a melting pot of synth, strings and jazz breaks with an overlying melody that breaks your heart and rouses, all at the same time. As odd as the Flaming Lips, but as sweet as Elbow, guiLLeMoTs are quirky, experimental and vastly entertaining to watch.

Lightspeed Champion -

Devonte Hynes of Test Icicles fame with new band Lightspeed Champion, making a genre-defying fusion of country, indie, lo-fi and experimental indie to produce something rather moving, powerful and sweet.

The Wombats -

Quirky Liverpudlian trio making indie based pop-rock. Influenced by the likes of Arcade Fire and The Beach Boys, The Wombats make driving indie-pop, backed up by catchy tunes and up-beat melodies that consistently teeter on the edge of the bizarre and the brilliant. ‘…tight as hell and with an ear for quirky melodies that defies belief.’ – GigWise
