Foy Vance + Phil Campbell + Lights
With a cracked, spine-tingling voice and profound storytelling gift, Belfast's Foy Vance is bluesman, survivor, rocker and folk hero all at once. Drifting twixt Damien Rice's solemn tenderness and the rugged uncompromising nature of The Crimea, it's as if the spirit of The Blue Nile entered Tom Waits - and touched it with gospel. The Independent said, "The missing link between Richie Havens and Stevie Wonder
a gospel-fuelled Pearl Jam". Possessed of a wonderful and withering set of pipes, this man is in the premier league of British songwriters. ID IS ESSENTIAL!!

The Station Club
And, at long last, from the ashes of Sixty6 and Kryah, comes an epic and sweeping U2/Goo Goo Dolls fusion; with a sky-full of cloud-bursting songs; moody yet bright with hope, displaying a rare gift of melody and power. ID IS ESSENTIAL!!

The Sugars
OK, so there's a White Stripes similarity: the sexual tension, the garagey-blues feel, the stick-it-in-yer-face attitude, the sheer bloody volume. But chuck in not one but two beautiful girls, both who can raise merry guitar and drum hell AND a bunch of great tunes. Banish all thoughts of sad old men blues bands. This is the new garage blues. It feels like rock and tastes twice as good. Blues | Retro | Soul

The Sneakypeaks
Storming back with a far funkier name and coming on like The Coral jamming with The Who, Sneakypeek's terrace chant hearts-of-gold choruses are to die for. Part Oasis babysitting The Arctic Monkeys and part punk-funk disco floorfillers erupting like Franz Ferdinand on speed and vodka. The very best of York. Recommended! ID IS ESSENTIAL!!

Underground Heroes + The Federals
Like The Ordinary Boys gargling glass, Brothers Aaron and Joe Dollimore, George Penfold and Jak Miller seem to have bailed out of school like, yesterday, and are currently laying waste to grimy venues UK-wide with gritty, grimy, emo-ska-punk. Whatever the fag-chuffing **** that is. "Million miles an hour cocky-yet-witty-with-it-lad-punk - in the best possible way." NME. ID IS ESSENTIAL!! Click here to read our rules.

Sons And Daughters
Hotwiring country and Scottish folk to voodoo rock 'n' roll, with songs that draw from paranoia and lust - filling a syringe with the darkest songs of Johnny Cash and Nick Cave. All the good stuff, then! If you celebrate Cat Power's bolshier stuff or lament that PJ Harvey isn't the same these days, you'll love S&D's 60's folk-rock, traditional Scots folk, rickety takes on garage rock and even some New Orleans-ish blues all thrown in. Blackest Americana mixed with broadest Scots, spinning dark tales of broken bones and tough love. Rock Trivia: The first time this fantastic band was at Fibbers, they were main support to Franz Ferdinand! Highly recommended. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! ID IS ESSENTIAL!! Click here to read our rules.

Hot Club De Paris
From a shared love of USA punk (Minutemen / Firehose) and an unhealthy obsession with math rock and experimental indie, comes something cheeringly uncategorisable. Yup, it's a Scouse trio playing upside-down, rapid-fire rococo pop with juddering 7/8 rhythms and a blatant disregard for standard pop formula. Marry technical musicianship with pure fun, three-part folk harmonies and witty lyrics and you get a slew of punk-pop stinkbombs and post-rock japery. Highly recommended! ID IS ESSENTIAL!!

OK Tokyo
Mouth-and-trousers pop strategists from a lineage stretching back to Sigue Sigue Sputnik and reaching out to Does It Offend You, Yeah?, Test Icicles and ... er ... The Darkness. Three indie boys from Reading who by incredible coincidence all have the same last name Tokyo - Sammy, Johnny and Matt. Using sci-fi and glam song-title buzzwords like 'supersonic devastator' is all in a day's work for today's futuristic pop-rock disco acts floating, they say, above the earth with Flash Gordon, Jimi Hendrix and Quincy Jones. It could be QOTSA and Franz Ferdinand with Outkast. But it's definitely future-shock. ID IS ESSENTIAL!! Click here to read our rules.
