Recommend an act

[abu hamster]

The Penguin Cafe Orchestra

I found their Album in ASDA its a cute little gem that catches you unaware with its lovely melodies and relaxing tunage!

[Mardy]

the rockingbirds

first album is beautiful

(second is shit though)

[hellcats]

Tarantism - proper stomping folk and a great vibe to be had by all

[Aphex's twin]

Crazy P - brilliant live band.

[stuartbert two hats]

Jon Hopkins. Really great electronic music, a bit like Orbital + mellow Aphex twin(Not the harsh evil sounding stuff), but a little more refined. 13:00, Saturday, G Stage

Standout tracks: 100, Contact Note

[tvrobbie]

King Porter Stomp - saw them in Shangri La last year, very good live, got everyone dancing

[deardo]

The Duckworths, Band stand and Rabbit hole. Top top music.

[Badlands]

The Mummers - just been listening to the album, really good, like a female Flaming Lips.

[FunkyDenz]

Fight Like Apes.

Saw them at Dot-to-Dot last year, they really impressed me, well worth catching again.

[Bradders]

Bombay Bicycle Club. They do indie in a way most bands don't. They seem more patient, building up songs nicely rather than just JANGLY RIFF CATCHY CATCHY CHORUS!!! Also they're younger than me I expect they'll be massive when the album comes out.

[Evil Monkey]

Bombay Bicycle Club, Official Secrets Act, Jersey Budd.

Just go check 'em all out on myspace rather than listen to me try and explan what they sound like! All are great live.

[INeedBeer]

dont know if the rakes are to big to qualify for this but they do british indie at its best

[neilt]

Hockey.

Fantastic band just on the verge of doing things

[robith]

Brothers Babb.

I work with one of them and he's a pretty sound dude

[clockworkpurple]

Stornoway - they're gert lush.

[Hotfoxy]

The Lancashire Hotpots!

And Major Major!

[scaryclaireyfairy]

The Mummers - just been listening to the album, really good, like a female Flaming Lips.

[mike46]

hockey, passion pit or the virgins!

not seen either live yet so hoping to catch them!

and The King Blues are awesome live!!

[Badlands]

If you are there on Thursday check out SohoDolls at Trash City, not sure what time they are playing though

[slats]

Lancashire Hotpots .. Although its looking like they may be playing at the same time as Rolf

[Felna]

Vagabond, saw them a couple of months back and are well worth a view - especially for the bass players 'finest afro in a band since Phil Lynott' entry!

rock/soul band, at their best they are easily the match of the Verve

[thomj42]

Fight Like Apes.

Saw them at Dot-to-Dot last year, they really impressed me, well worth catching again.
