More Information

Doves

One of the UK's best indie rock bands (and former members of 'Sub Sub) whose first two albums have allowed the band to dispense with comparisons and forge their own sound. Mellow guitar-driven indie with irresistable chord arrangements, which sometimes give way to playful dance undercurrents, their Glasto 2002 and 2003 sets have been festival highlights for any lucky enough to hear them.

The Twang

Birmingham based indie group declared by the NME as 'the next big thing'. Sounding like a cross between The Stone Roses and The Streets, The Twang are rock'n'roll at its best. 'Swaggering, big hearted rock'n'roll mischief...' - NME.

Badly Drawn Boy

Mercury Music Prize winner Badly Drawn Boy provides 'Beatific, rhythm-infested melodies, resplendent in wondrous brass, stark string accompaniment and obscure found sounds'.
