Underage Festival 2009 Line up Sunday 2nd August

Santigold

Formerly known as Santogold, the lovechild of submarine sonar and low frequency midnight moans, Santigold was born somewhere between Bedstuy and Bushwick, Brooklyn and was placed under the care of enigmatic singer and songwriter Santi White. Santigold drives dub and 80's pop influences from song to song. Sometimes basement rock, sometimes Bananarama-soundclash, Santigold is a vehicle for White's well drawn late night fight lines and robot-witch scat on the beat. Warbling bass, island upbeat, and deep-south snap provide foundation for White's whispering lilts and tension-ridden verses.

The Horrors

Bridging the unseen gap between mod, goth and punk music, The Horrors have burst onto the scene, spurting a no-nonsense mix of London rock and theatrical punk. Putting as much effort into their dramatic stage shows as they do their immaculate appearances, The Horrors make camp, catchy music that would do a Tim Burton soundtrack proud.

Patrick Wolf

London youngster Patrick Wolf, who makes dark and twisted avant-garde electro-folk. Brimming with emotional passion, sinister story-telling and mythological legend, Wolf's music is weird and wonderful, epic yet simple. 'Patrick Wolf carries a certain magnetism that most artists can only dream of...A truly wonderful performer and, dare I say it, one of the definitive artists of our time.’ – Drowned in Sound.

Mystery Jets

'Perfectly formed pop' (Bugbear). A band who manage to do something new with the rock sound. Their music is unusual and boundary pushing, but luckily they have the technical prowess to pull it off, sometimes mastering kitchen utensils as well as more standard instruments.
