THE MONROE TRANSFER (on stage between 10.45 - 11.15 pm)

ARTHUR BRICK (on stage between 10.00 - 10.30 pm)
Playing their first gigs in 2005, Arthur Brick have gradually morphed from a 3 piece band playing skinny, nervy folk-punk to a 6 piece which now includes echo electronics, pedal steel, timbales, double bass, charango and 3-part harmonies. The band plays songs at the side of a notional road junction crossed by the likes of Fela Kuti, George Jones, Caetano Veloso, Kate Bush and Kenneth Williams.

VIV ALBERTINE (on stage between 9.15 - 9.45 pm)
Viv Albertine’s blood-line can be traced all the way back to the heart of Punk Rock’s true aristocracy! Viv was schooled in guitar techniques by such luminaries as Keith Levine (The Clash / PiL), Joe Strummer (The Clash) and Johnny Thunders (New York Dolls / The Heartbreakers.) Viv soon went on to further develop her burgeoning guitar talents to great effect, as the left-field, melodic top-line maestro, in the seminal punk rock maelstrom that was The Slits. Viv then chose to - paradoxically - drop-out from Punk to pursue a lengthy and successful career in film and television. Now, after a long sojourn away from music Viv is back, eagerly treading the boards with a current crop of songs that explore the vagaries of ’love und romance’ in a characteristically provocative and evocative way!

CHARLY BLUE & THE COLOURS (on stage between 8.30 - 9.00 pm)
Charly Morris is arguably better known as the pulsating bass player for the Power-Punk-Pop trio Le Tetsuo. However, tonight she will don her acoustic guitar to perform her brutally frank and superbly crafted songs. Performing under the alter-ego of Charly Blue, she will tonight be accompanied by her backing group The Colours; Nicole Robson (The Irrepressibles / The Monroe Transfer) on cello and Masimo Franco on drums & percussion.
