Mark Morriss, played his first solo artist show for the PLAYHARD crew after the classic british guitar band he fronted, split last September. Naturally blessed with both charm and style, Mark was born to entertain. Mixing gorgeous folky pop songs from his album, Memory Muscle, with live favourites from The Bluetones he is a genuine star. http://markmorriss.me/

The Ghosts - Electro beat brilliance residing in the club charts, gathering massive buzz at a rate of knots and a MUST see in celebration of their debut album, 'The End' released this mont and already earning superlative soaked reviews http://facebook.com/wearetheghosts

The Filthy Habits - This 21st century hybrid of The Stones, Arctic Monkeys, The Hives and Primal Scream beat 10,000 artists to win Best Live And UnSigned Indie Act 2011 while only a year old. They've had airplay on Absolute Radio, BBC6 Music and BBC Essex and formed their own label 'Filthy Records' in November'. Get in! http://thefilthyhabits.co.uk/

Former member of pop rockers,The Faders Molly McQueen has come into her own with her spanking songs that have earned her a deal. Having written with Katie Melua, she is now working on her own debut album and returned from L.A, to have fun in the UK live scene again, recently touring as support for Melanie C. http://soundcloud.com/molly_mcqueen

The Francis Jetty - Where sixties soul meets the new rock n roll. "Words can't convey the music, and the Internet can't convey the raw energy. But be warned, no one at a gig just gets to stand and watch." http://facebook.com/TheFrancisJetty

No*Tokyo - Formed in 2009, Manchester's No*Tokyo have taken their time getting to the point where they are happy to put out studio material, concentrating instead on becoming a consistent live act, renowned for incendiary intensity. The eponymous debut EP is worth the wait, as will this show be! http://www.facebook.com/notokyo
