		<description><![CDATA[Scoundrels are the latest addition for recently revived blues label &#8216;Blue Horizon’. Their trademark sound is bluesy American rock,think Matchbox Twenty but with a palpable portion of southern comfort and soul. Title track ‘Sniff It Up’ quickly commands attention acting as a ballsy and confident rock opener whereas ‘Hangman’s Lament’ provides a more narrative nod [...]]]></description>

It seems in this instance venue and act were perfectly aligned both exuding comfort, intimacy, and a down to earth feel. Leftwich managed to slink on the stage almost with out the crowd’s detection.

		<description><![CDATA[Oh Land is a cracking new experimental electro pop act that peels influences from Björk, The Pierces and a touch of Alex Winston to boot. &#8216;Sun of a Gun&#8216; is the most probably the most pop focused of her outputs with a catchy chorus and theatrical production that has become almost a staple to female [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wild Palms first came to my attention last year when they released début single &#8216;Deep Dive&#8216; on One Little Indian. It was a boisterous little tune and, in my mind, it warranted a lot of attention but, disappointingly, it didn’t receive its rightful share of hype. However, their latest offering, ‘Delights in Temptation’, is unlikely to [...]]]></description>

Their catchy guitar rifts, strong vocals, and solid synths form a fully fledged and fully phonic electro rock sound. &#8216;Song Of The Beast&#8216; is the bands largest slice of electro; crunched beats are supported with warps and synths to provide a harder edge to their sound.  Leading lady [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[End of Level Baddie is an upcoming electro producer whose work is an eclectic mix of vintage synths, retro samples, broken beats and saturated bass lines. The self titled track ‘e.n.d.o.f.l.e.v.e.l.b.a.d.d.i.e’ is a basement break beat masterpiece. It kicks off with old skool style initialing then slopes into a sly sample of TLC before being [...]]]></description>
