Subsource This is a band like no other you have ever encountered. Four nutcases laying
down the most insane concoction of electro and breakbeat with frenetic punk
rock energy.
The Anomalies This fun-loving foursome deliver danceable beats and uninhibited rhymes
depicting a contemporary look at life as mates living it large in
suburbia. With bohemian instinct, indie attitude and animated sounds harking
back to the days of old school, They bring an intoxicating charisma to the music
scene
The Deluka Deluka have a strong and unique sound, which is an amalgamation of sleazy
guitar riffs, throbbing bass, heavy beats and razor-sharp synths topped by
amazingly powerful yet blissful vocals
Los Albertos Los Albertos create a frenzy upon the dance floors
and grassy fields of Europe with their inimitable foot-stompin’ and blazin-brass
high energy blend of ska, punk, funk, dub, original beats, and twisted
English humour. It’s dance music, Jim, but not as we know it...
Sicknote A fantastically ugly racket influenced by The Fall, Captain Beefheart and LCD
Soundsystem, yet with a large dose of originality thrown in, Sicknote's
funked-up epic electro punk guarantees to blow the roof off...
The Destroyers The band are a sight and sound to behold, a whirlwind of gypsy folk mayhem. They
fuse Balkan sounds with ska, jazz, kletzmer and Mariachi, all delivered with
their own twist and unique brand of buffonery.
The Hot Dogs A great party
band to get your dancing shoes on to or sing along with air guitars an
option!

and compelling ska tinge to their dance noise
Kava Kava
This turbo charged 6 piece dance/rock hybrid have ripped up clubs and
festivals across Europe and the States with their distinctive psychedelic
soul and infectious grooves

the Powers That Be Kid
Harpoon is not only one the most interesting singer/songwriters in the
country, but also a totally hopeless romantic!
Inner City Unit A devolving five piece whose music is so far over the edge that it almost defies
comprehension. Had the Bonzo Dog Band spent the `70s attending muddy rock
festivals this might have been the outcome.
The New Town Centres Peculiar, spiky, danceable pop music evoking Henry Mancini,
Talking Heads and The Kinks, vigorously played on dirty guitars
and battered synths by 6 men with identical hair. Live
performances may include dancing
Redstripe Welsh homegrown reggae band and sound system designed to move your dancing feet
and rock your soul with a message of one love and unity.

haunting Balkan harmony, hip-hop beats and Appalachian fiddle, all eaten and
spit out by two violins, resophonic guitar, bullhorn harmonica and bass.

with African and Eastern European rhythms whilst keeping both feet firmly rooted
in the north of England.
