Event information

Phil Wilson
http://www.myspace.com/philwilsonjunebride

Phil continues his resurgence after returning to making music a couple of years ago. For those that don't know he was once in indiepop legends The June Brides. His new live band are something to behold and make all of his classic songs come to life. That's not to mention the new songs that get an airing as well. This is top notch jangle pop. Not to be missed.

Kid Canaveral (Scotland)
http://www.myspace.com/kidcanaveral

Kid Canaveral are a classic Scottish band - They come armed with a bucket full of buzz flavoured guitar pop. They've been compared to The Delgados, Teenage Fanclub and The Buzzcocks. They've released 3 singles on Straight to Video Records and are due to release their debut LP in 2009.

"Juicy, chewy pop-kids to savour, proving that life still twitches in this indie guitar-pop business." Paul Whitelaw, The Scotsman

"Kid Canaveral’s debut single, Smash Hits, is the kind of joyous buzzsaw racket that’s so simple and so very effective you wonder why people don’t make it more often..." Fire Escape Talking

Spencer McGarry Season (Wales)
http://www.myspace.com/spencermcgarry

Tip top Welsh pop from Cardiff, Spencer McGarry Season make deft pop tones - sounding like a heady mix of classic Brisish pop with nods to The Kinks, Talking Heads and XTC.

"There’s good news, though, in the shape of The Spencer McGarry Season - awesome Jam-esque livewires, Shaggs admirers, and all-round good guys. Catch ‘em live if you can - their gigs are the best New Wave dance party you’ll ever attend." diskant.net

How To Cure Dyslexia
http://www.myspace.com/howtocuredyslexia

A London band that blend downtempo indiepop and folk to beautiful effect.

They released a cracking debut LP back in 2007 (The tempo of bicycles and boat) and have their 2nd LP ready to be released in 2009.

"There is a pastoral quality to 'Little Else' that makes the track reminiscent of Elliot Smith and Nick Drake." clickmusic.com
"A charming curio" - musicomh.com
