Pit Ponies-

Rude Mechanicals
The Art-rock inspired Rude Mechanicals has been compared to The Tiigerlillies, early Roxy Music, Tom Waits, Captain Beefheart, and Can. They've been described as Post-Punk, Prog and Dark Cabaret - altogether creating a music that can best be described as “wild, wicked weirdness... a little bit Flying Lizards, a little bit Native Hipsters and a great deal like nothing you've heard before..." (Tom Robinson BBC6).

Woog Riots
Germany's Woog Riots were one of the first bands we ever put on (back in 2007), they return to the UK for one night only to play an exclusive set for us - expect to be taken from "Lo-Fi to Disco!"

David Cronenberg's Wife (Duo)
A unique duo performance of classic material from "Hypnagogues" (their best album?) from DCW's Tom Mayne along with a familiar face joining on lap steel guitar.

The Stay Aways
Two piece Brighton/London dream pop power duo from Choo Choo Trains' alumni. Their songs shine with simplistic beauty, think TVPs, Thee Headcoatees, MBV, Raincoats, Camera Obscura etc. and you're only part the way there.
