With a line-up to fight over and DJ’s to keep you dancing until the early hours this is a party not to be missed.

“Having ensconced themselves in the woodwork of the Big Chill House not too long ago, Hooked on Music hand-pluck an array of artists who tick all the right boxes for this fortnightly residency, with sounds ranging from folk to electronica and all that lies between.”– Natalie Liechti (Flavorpill London)

“Hooked on Music is not a good night, it’s a very, very, very good night…” - Joshua Idehen, (Spoonfed London)

Coming together in and around the Bristol area in late 2006, electro rock five piece Medallist have everything it takes to make it big, the swagger, the look and, most importantly, the songs. Danceable verses slam right into catchy choruses that'll have you humming them for weeks. All of it delivered with the air of a band ready to break out of the local club circuit and take on the big time.'next big things'.

"Gusty electro rock five piece with basslines hefty enough to kill a horse at 20 paces- catch them while their hot" - NME

The New Devices

The New Devices write songs about debauched nights, mischief and sometimes the regrettable mornings after. Listening to them, you can clearly hear the dance influences and the energetic beats driving the songs, but there's additionally a wide rock'n'roll soundscape offering the big catchy choruses that could fill football terraces and stadiums. The live performance cements The New Devices sound, using live instruments and Justin as the killer frontman. In this digital age where increasingly you are your own DJ and the shuffle option on your iPod is your main form of musical adventure, The New Devices offer that thrill of 'where am I going to be taken next'
