The King Blues, described by Kerrang! as 'The most exciting live band in Britain', Featuring two acoustic guitars, a ukulele and a Melodeon, The King Blues' music is a heady and life-affirming concoction of soul-tinged ska, street poetry, working class/protest folk, dub bass lines and doo-wop melodies, all delivered with a punk attitude. Myspace.com/thekingblues

The Arrows Of Love's heady alternative rock sound draws comparisons with elements of
world changing early 90's bands whilst retaining a distinctly English voice and it's own style. Myspace.com/arrowsoflove

Gaggle, a riotous 22 piece East London alt girl choir, are 'the most exciting,
innovative and genuinely imaginative force at large in music right now. Myspace.com/gagglespace

The Homosexuals, one of the original explosive garage punk bands from the late 70's, who 'deserved to reach a wider audience alongside icons like the Sex Pistols, The Clash, and all the rest'.Myspace.com/thehomosexuals

More Light More Power, a statement of defiance, streaming guitar, marching rhythm, lightening strike to open hearts and the sublime magic of knowing the threat behind the silence, a violent ritual in warm synthesizer with cold resolution. Myspace.com/morelightmorepowerlondon

Pocket Lips are 7 members strong with three vocalists, drums, bass, keys and are fresh back from playing with DJ Yoda the awesome Mr Margaret Scratcher on the turntables. The band have been working and touring with other artists such as Roots Manuva, The Dub Pistols, and Babyshambles, while Mr Hudson has asked them to remix his next single. Myspace.com/pocketlips

Honey Weasel are a dynamic duo consisting of Hagop Matossian 'Honey' and Aaron Horn 'Weasel'. Their sound is a fusion of samples taken from their favourite tunes/seminal movies, jammed with their own beats to create a delectable ever changing mush. Myspace.com/honeyweasel

Sam Ritchie's Trumpet driven Q DOS perform original high energy balkan style ska and dub material with a current line up of 4 top brass players, drums, dj decks, guest vocals and dancers. Myspace.com/qdosmusic

Room 2, The Art Of 'In The Year 2525' (Exhibition)

consciousness as the late great Joe Strummer. Myspace.com/supernovan19
