With very Special guests

Plaided (fettkakao)
Plaided are from Vienna, Austria. They have a unique sound, great songs and like the more cerebral bands of the world open up something larger than you can quite get a finger on. The bands debut album 'Playdate' made some important Best of 2012 lists and they play the UK for only the 2nd ever time just before hitting SWSX Festival.

small gang
smallgang are a half-japanese London based trio fronted by two baritone voiced brothers that have been making a name for themselves with volcanic live shows exploding tight poppy post-punk with effortless complexity and crazed solo's. Bitch Magnet, Shonen Knife, Versus and Geoff Farina love these guys and so should you!
Gideon Co BBC 6musice: "rather good"
Artrocker: "deceptively deadpan songs often mutate into noisy but controlled thrashing. (Cockpit) is a particularly fine tune."
