    Featuring:

    Neosupervital
    66e
    House of Mexico
    Herm


    Neosupervital

    NSV is Tim O'Donovan, a MIDI guitar and a drum machine called Dr. Groove or, as his Hot Press tell us "the best one man electro-pop freakshow in the land". Garnering comparisons to Beck, Money Mark and the Human League, Neosupervital has released 2 CDs to rave reviews: "Use what you got" and the recently released "Focus"

    66e

    Formerly The 66 Electric, 66e play haunting, emotive rock in the vein of Sigur Ros and Radiohead. To date they've released two excellent E.P.s, "I died in a movie" and the recent 'Scrambled Pricture'/ 'Ends'.

    House of Mexico

    HOM bring their psychadelic rock'n'roll wall of noise to the Ballroom for an ear splitting rumble. Rising from the ashes of the highly rated Clive*star, House of Mexico have been compared to Spaceman 3 and the Jesus and Mary Chain. A debut release is imminent.


    Herm

    Featuring Kevin Connolly of El Diablo, Herm play lo-fi, low down garage blues reminiscent of Beck and Tom Waits.
