The Silent League
A chamber pop supergroup featuring members of Mercury Rev and Interpol.
Akira The Don
British hip-hop guru Akira the Don (aka Adam Narkiewicz) isn't quite what you'd expect: there's his surfer blonde hair, and his Dali-esque moustache...and then there's his music. Capturing The Streets' British poeticism, Jurassic 5's cool street sound and The Gorillaz' mastery of invention and penchant for inspired collaboration, Akira the Don has pretty much got it covered. Signed to Eminem's label, he also has his sights set on writing, acting, making musicals, founding a newspaper, oh and politics. Look out world, Akira the Don is coming...
Emmy The Great
Critically acclaimed folk singer Emmy the Great, real name Emma-Lee Moss, was initially a member of the indie folk group Lightspeed Champion, performing as their vocalist for a brief period in 2007 alongside Florence Welch (of Florence and the Machine). Now a solo artist, her debut album, First Love, was released in 2009 to mass critical acclaim. Noted for her evocative and thought-provoking lyrics, and her inventive way with rhyme, her live performances have bags of vulnerability and sass in equal measures.
