PANAMA KINGS (Belfast)
Fresh and fun indie foursome follow up some radio 1 airplay and recent supports slots to the likes of Young Knives, British Sea Power and The undertones with a quickfire visit to London.
'drawing comparisons with indie luminaries such as Modest Mouse, Pixies, and the Walkmen, Panama Kings employ razor-sharp Gang Of Four guitars over dance-rock rhythms, frenetic keyboards and just enough Sonic Youth noise to stay this side of melodic, with Niall Kennedy's Superchunk/ Flaming Lips-esque vocal style perhaps being the bands strongest suit.' - Strummerville

SOMETHING BEGINNING WITH L
...are a girl-boy-girl trio from South London and Suffolk.
Taking inspiration from 4AD's alt rock era of the Nineties, SBL create melodies as sweet as any chart buster, but with a desire to make the arrangements twist and turn at tangents to the mainstream. 'wonderfully woozy, synth-laden pastoralia.' - The Sunday Times
