More Information

The Pigeon Detectives

The Pigeon Detectives

The Leeds-based Pigeon Detectives play an exciting blend of rock'n'roll born out of a love for classic rock music and the indie rock of the 1990s. 'Perfect fodder for indie fans who like to jump up and down as if it's 1995, this band's crunching guitar is simple but effective' says Camden Evening News, reflecting quite accurately the Pigeon Detectives' ethos- to play exciting music to packed out venues.

Rolo Tomassi

Rolo Tomassi

25 second assaults alternate with 10 minute sick and twisted trilogies, self destruction, carnage, power, and energy. Over the top of it a girl howls and screams her throat to blood and shreds over moving and powerful, yet meaningless lyrics. It's like a shark attack experience, where you'll find your self mentally swimming in the calm melody before you're hurled through a short, sharp blast of speed and aggression, suddenly you can catch your breathe in some sort of oxygen pocket until you're finally ripped up again by the bands variety, unpredictability and ingenious self expression.

Esser

Replacing regular guitar with samples, Esser's live show is a collection of very slick sampling and huge drum beats with plenty of extra percussion on top. Similar to early Beck in many ways, except replace that American Scientologist drawl with very English punctuation and dry humour and you can see why Esser is causing a stir.

Rosie & The Goldbug

Rosie & The Goldbug

Joined by The Goldbug (aka drummer Plums and bass player Pixie), they're almost like Thin Lizzy but with a synth combined with a love of Kate Bush and Tori Amos. A robo-disco throbber, propelled by a rich, sob-in-the-throat vocals from frontwoman Rosie.
