found home in 2009 Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Saw this article and wondered if anyone had any other recommendations of smaller acts to see:http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/entertainment/13372527.T_in_the_Park__our_guide_to_the_festival_s_hidden_gems/ I'm only going for the Saturday, but I'm surprised Benjamin Booker is only on the t-break stage on Sunday. If you like bluesy music he's pretty cool. On a similar note I'm looking forward to seeing the Strypes again, saw them 3 years ago at Glastonbury when they were pretty much kids and they were awesome. Also loved Years & Years at this years Glastonbury, though not sure if I'll see them again as not sure I want to see the same band twice in such quick succession.

AldoTVAOF Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Blossoms on the Friday on Transmissions Stage. Absolutely brilliant band and gutted that it looks like I'll miss them due to a probable clash with The Cribs. Also quite like the sound of RedFaces on BBC Introducing on the Saturday.

highjinx79 Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 I've only just recently started listening to admiral fallow, pretty gutted they're on at the same time as the view..seen them loads but never disappoint. Tough one for me. Wanna check out a load of smaller bands as well over the weekend tho, not heard of many of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

found home in 2009 Posted July 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Blossoms on the Friday on Transmissions Stage. Absolutely brilliant band and gutted that it looks like I'll miss them due to a probable clash with The Cribs. Also quite like the sound of RedFaces on BBC Introducing on the Saturday. First track I listened to by them was a bit too down beat for me but quite liking "You Pulled a Gun on Me". Gerry Cinnamon! Not bad. Guitar lick at the start is very familiar though, did Direstraits or someone like that not have a very similar riff? I've only just recently started listening to admiral fallow, pretty gutted they're on at the same time as the view..seen them loads but never disappoint. Tough one for me. Wanna check out a load of smaller bands as well over the weekend tho, not heard of many of them. Decent band, seem to have been at the same sort of mid level of success for ages so doubt they're ever going to make it big sadly. Also love the View, obviously not a wee band, but totally underrated IMHO. Edited July 7, 2015 by ewankenobi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harryomatic Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Prides - fun synth pop Coasts - pretty slick indie-rock Lonely The Brave - Biffy-esque rock with big choruses Lafontaines - Scottish rap/rock. Always fantastic live. Circa Waves - what summer sounds like Vukovi - Rage against the machine meets Paramore Our Future Glory - big catchy dance music Marmozets - similar to Vukovi but more pop punk The Van T's - cool slightly grungy female two piece And my prize pick - The Xcerts. One of the best bands to ever come out of Scotland in my opinion. If you don't know them go listen now to either 'Live Like This', 'Slackerpop', 'Aberdeen 1987', 'Kids On Drugs' or 'Crisis In The Slow Lane'. Seen them live about 7 times now, they're always phenomenal. Having interviewed them twice, I can confirm they are lovely guys too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazza7 Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Strangely, Young Guns are on the T-break stage on the Sunday despite not being a small act. Think that will be a set well worth seeing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mazza7 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Not really a small band, but The Wombats are one to see They're the act I'm most looking forward to, they've not played TITP since 2008. I missed them that year but everyone I bumped into that year were telling me how good they were live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cammers Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Lonely The Brave - Biffy-esque rock with big choruses Incredible band.. clashfinder shows a slight overlap with Hozier though. Praying they are separate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hozier vs Lonely The Brave vs Duke Dumont is could be terrible. Last year it was HAIM vs Maximo Park vs Royal Blood vs Lonely The Brave!

DGrant261 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Not small as such but I don't reckon St.Vincent will get the crowd she deserves Same will happen with War on Drugs & Albama Shakes sadly I reckon.

KeithDelBasso Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Out of curiosity who won? For me it would probably have been maximo or royal blood I went for HAIM. I love Maximo Park but seen them a few times and new HAIM were coming to the end of touring that album so really wanted to see them. Hopefully see Royal Blood soon!

I arrived at T last year during their set I could hear it from the campsite entrance. Royal blood are another fantastic album away from perhaps subbing T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if they count as 'small' or not but Palma Violets are fantastic live Totally agree about Palma Violets. Looks like they may clash with Seasick Steve which will be a dilemma for me. I really enjoyed Alabama Shakes at Glastonbury even though I got soaked during it. Don't think they play "Hold On" anymore, not sure if that will piss anyone off since it's probably their best known song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just shows how much wind can mess up the sound at a festival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
found home in 2009 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Schnarffschnarff in Tbreak. Love the name. Guessing they liked Thundercats when they were kids. Singers got a really good voice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
found home in 2009 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Been in 3 minds between Avicii, Courteeners and Twin Atlantic. Think they're all ok without being a massive fan of any of them. Now wondering if Neon Waltzes could be my headliner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
