The music:
2.30 Sarah Russell; sassy singer song writer from Southend “Sarah Russell was absolutely f*cking unbelievable great singer/songwriter in the vein of pj harvey/liz phair/kristen hersch and completely sidetracked all avril bylines. “GIITTV
3.30 Clearfall: are an indie-pop band who, on one level, possess lush baladeering sensitive and sincere enough to melt the iciest most cynical of hearts. On another level they can rock and bop with the best of their genre and are famed north of the border for their zesty and youthful following. They are young and have an incandescent future ahead of them having recently signed to Scottish indie label Electric Honey." Due on stage at ULU at 10pm hence early slot!!
4.30 Piranha Deathray: are a two-shilling knee-trembler of a band founded amidst the crumbling graves and gobbling gargoyles of the cemeteries of Stoke Newington. They sound like something unpleasant happening to someone you love, a private pain inflicted with guitar, double bass and peculiar hair. They are the band of uncles whose knee you didn't fancy sitting on, the disappointed sigh of a non-conformist preacher at the loss of a thousand souls. "No one is making music like Piranha Deathray at the moment" – NME "Seedy as f*ck" - Akira the Don
5.30 thejessicaquestion: A three piece of epic proportions from the island of Guernsey, just breaking onto the UK scene. Thunderous bass, hellfire drums and stunning vocals to make Conor Oberst wet his already damp underwear.

6.30 1984: Sheffield Punk Poetry set to a Filthy Groove. Sly Stone and the Clash’s Bastard Love Child. Jump on the bandwagon of Truth and Romance.
7.30 The IK+ Cardiffs top pixies esque super group, expect infectuous tunes from the Welsh heroes of alternative. Karate Kills

8.30 The Fades: With their roots grounded in garage punk, the Fades sound morphs through rock ‘n roll, big beat, psych, ska and heavy metal. Playing gigs throughout the UK and releasing a number of well received singles with help from new indie label; Genepool Records, they have become a well known, critically acclaimed front of the underground scene.

9.30: Rhesus: Festival curators, if the ruts were a glam band……f*cking savages……a post sonic youth undertones say playlouder, signed to spinach records, single early 2005 It¹s aggression and noise, but they know the difference between making a noise for the sake of it and making a noise to carry a song, absolutely phenomenal say Artrocker………….
