Matt W-deeply soulful singer-songer, influenced by Ray LaMontagne but with an identity all his own. Steve P-ex Datapuddle, stirring Americana tinged folk with subtle electronica. Frizbys- nice harmonizing from this 4 piece- delicate folk textures, a bit West Coast (Joni M, Mamas and Papas)  but mainly Anglo folk fare- see Bridget St John, Fairports.  Krista-Papista-  Underworld meets Bjork with a vocal reminiscent of Patti Smith. Scott McFarnon- Unique arresting voice, somewhere between Morrissey and Tim Buckley, yearning and soulful.

The Vanderbilts
 + Rew Starr
 + Yeah Saint Paul + Rob Gough
 + Josh Fowley
Vanderb's- big Clint Boon swirl of 'Hammond' and we're off with a low key 60s beat pop with rather Sleeper chick vocal, nice. Rew Starr-   her own internet TV show rocks- s like a post punk Stevie Nicks, the tunes have a nice lilting vibe. Very Patti Smith actually. Yeah S P- Velvet Underground 3rd LP meets Pavement..Rob G-  solo with a G Harrison cum Gordon Lightfoot cum Greg Lake vibe- Floydy in tone. FX, beats , lead breaks. Josh F-  Upbeat acoustic performer ,an agreeable Paul Simon meets Prince Billie air.

Yes, they're called Shit.. sound FX, banjolele, surreal vox, toytown keys -Huggy Bear meets The Residents. On Space Bloop The Fall meets Joe Meek's Blue Men-gotta luv em. Rosella- a Bjork element, a tad Kate Bush and tons of her original self. PB- art punk/yob punk/garage punk solo bod- 77 with modern ironic edge! Andy K-bashing out punk soul goodies on an acoustic mercilessly..Louise P- Indie folk-skiffle with upbeat lyrical thread fulla charm. Melodically you can't fault it. Uke toting chick who will probably end up on a vodaphone ad or some such!

The Nomadics
 + Something Men
 + Higharts + (Bugbear's RnR High School Hop)
The Nomadics take The Misunderstood and The Sonics and inject just enough post Libertines indie verve to render something new- but just revel in them sweet garage punk tones. Something Men-  young fellers playing snotty white boy blues just like its 1961 down the Richmond Crawdaddy Club all over again..luv it, 1st LP Stones with  teenage Peter Perret on vox- what's not to like?! The High Arts- a smashing Small Faces for the two thousand and teenies vibe. COME IN SCHOOL GARB –naughty boys/sassy school girls/trendy teachers/strict masters and mistresses/curvaceous cooks/grungey groundsmen!!!
