THE CAUSEWAY
The Causeway are one of Manchester's most loved bands playing rammed out shows for us recently at In The City Fringe and previously supporting the likes of The Primitives / Violet May and many more

THE MADDING CROWD
The Madding Crowd are the germination of an idea that was had around March 2009, but didn't really come into fruition until around April 2010. We are from Manchester and we strive to make music that stands out from the crowd by being articulate, thought-provoking and aurally different from the current flock. It is our opinion that the world of music has become a stale and sad place, governed by money and careerism (as most things are nowadays), a place in which no one is any longer willing to take risks and make people think about life and it's comings and goings, for fear of seeming unappealing to a record buying public who are largely indifferent to music, and see it as a resource akin in it's limitless capacity to tap water. Of course it is not, and that is why people need to be alerted to music again by a band who dare to be different.

KATMAN DU
The biggest new gypsy sounds on the net! Hailing from the magical mystery towns of Bury and Bolton, we'll be taking our rugged convoy across all terrains to give you some of that musical good stuff. Coming soon to a dank pub or swank club near you, it's KATMANDU!

LISBON
Formed in the autumn of 2009, Lisbon are a 5-piece pop band hailing from Manchester, England. With a fondness for dramatic pop music, the band began with one clear objective – creating high-quality, modern pop songs with universal appeal. After a prolific song-writing period, Lisbon are intent on imprinting their sound upon the public consciousness by embarking on a series of live performances in their home town.
