More Information

MGMT -

New York duo Andrew Vanwyngarden and Ben Goldwasser, who, after finding a shared love of obscure, twee music, started MGMT and began making their deliciously sparkly retro pop, heavily influenced by the likes of Bowie, Spaceman 3 and The Incredible String Band.

Alphabeat -

Popjustice called them 'the best band in the world ever' - and this 6 piece will more then live up to the hype. Already firm favourites on the European festival circuit, their debut album 'Alphabeat' has gone platinum in their native Denmark. A winning combo of infectious feel good pop and memorably energetic live performances.

CSS -

Formed in 2003, the 5 girls and 1 boy started the band as a good excuse to go out drinking and the only one able to produce a decent sound from their instrument was the drummer. However, just 3 years later in early 2006 they signed with Sub Pop and released their debut album 'Lets Make Love As We Listen To Death From Above'.
