It's happening again... The 4th Annual Fortuna POP! Winter Sprinter 2014 is Go!

Four nights, twelve bands, DJs... the perfect antidote to the post-Christmas blues with the creme de la creme of the Fortuna POP! roster in a show with everything but Darren Hayman.

2013 has been another incredible year for Fortuna POP! with the runaway success of Cardiff's noise pop young guns Joanna Gruesome and Edinburgh's pop pranksters The Spook School, alongside Evans The Death and the soon to be massive Flowers, representing a new generation of bands to go with established acts such as Herman Dune, Allo Darlin', Darren Hayman and Comet Gain.

2014 looks even brighter for the label with the signings of indie heavyweights Let's Wrestle and Withered Hand and the re-emergence of former favourites in new guises: Mega Emotion (ex-Bearsuit), Mammoth Penguin (ex-Standard Fare) and Simon Love and The Plastic Yeh-Yeh Band (ex-The Loves), not to mention the debut album from Dublin's September Girls and a slice of melancholic Swedish pop from Cocoanut Groove.

As always the Annual Fortuna POP! Winter Sprinter showcases the best of the label's talent over four days in the intimate surroundings of The Lexington, with many of the bands mentioned above involved in this unmissable curtain-raiser to the year.
