Mean Poppa Lean

Mean Poppa Lean

Winners of the 2008 Myspace unsigned award, Brighton's force of funk Mean Poppa lean bring a heady and infectious show of old school R& B, ridiculously outfitted and at times circus act but utterly adorable.

Drookit Dogs

Folk and post punk get mashed up with a gleeful buzzing feel, and some marvellous tunes. Their frontman may remind you of a young Richard Thompson.

Sweet Sweet Lies

A crudely drawn mix of folk, bluegrass, and post-punk. They draw reference from such influences as Johnny Cash, Nick Cave, Willie Nelson, Tom Waits and Kurt Weill. Vocalist Dominic VonTrapp’s voice is as smooth as it is haunting and his lyrics are witty and full of pathos. Augmented by co-conspirator Michael Hayes’s guitar work, his simple yet touching songs linger in the mind long after they’re gone
