More Information

Blondie -

Blondie formed in 1974 and had a string of hits through the 70s and 80s as the instigators of the New York side of the new wave punk scene. Debbie Harry went on to pursue a successful solo career, with the hit 'I Want That Man' in 1989, and the band reformed in 1999, having No. 1 single success with 'Maria'.

Howling Bells -

Lurching from blues-fuelled rock to country folk lamentations, Howling Bells produce a sound drenched in warm feedback and dried in the desert sun. Drawing inevitable comparisons to the likes of PJ Harvey, vocalist Juanita Stein's delivery is silky, sultry and utterly intoxicating.

Martha Wainwright -

Daughter of musical legends Kate McGarrigle and Loudon Wainwright III, as well as the sister of Rufus Wainwright, Martha is now a highly regarded musician in her own right. This is due to the strength of her material, which is a fascinating mix of folk, rock, pop and more, all sung with her dramatic and extremely versatile voice.

The Mars Volta -

Alternative rock-laden six-piece featuring former members of At The Drive In. With heavy punk, jazz and Latin influences, The Mars Volta’s sound is consistently unpredictable and constantly mind-blowing. ‘What distinguishes most of the best rock bands from the ordinary ones is fearlessness, and the Mars Volta have no shortage of that.’ – Rolling Stone

Tindersticks -

Stuart Staples and the kings of melancholy play haunting ballads of heartbreak, sentimentality and long nights alone drinking whiskey. Beautiful.

Sam Isaac -

An acoustic singer/songwriter playing heartbreaking tales of love, family and vulnerability. Counting Bright Eyes, The Spinto Band and Ed Harcourt amongst his influences, young Sam has self-released two mini albums, received glowing reviews and national radio play on Radio 1, 2 and XFM.
