    The tunes I've heard from Grand Pocket Orchestra (on their MySpace, probably) are good.

    Yeah they're lots of fun. Will probably play about 15 songs in the 25 minutes they're given to play.

    The Brothers Movement are the artists formally known as Mainline. Presume they still worship at the altar of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

    Of the ones I've heard, Cashier No9 are the best - from Belfast... I like the singers voice a lot.. nice melodic acoustic based pop tunes (with drums - not singer songwriter cack!). They supported Ting Tings last month & seem to be getting a fair bit of radioplay up north.

    Grand Pocket try waaaaaay to hard to be "wacky" and come out looking daft. And Halves are a snoozefest and a half. Bring yr sleeping bag & pillow.

    Nope, they've gone reverb heavy country rock. Think Band Of Horses.

    Halves are excellent - if you like Mono, you'll like them. GPO are good fun too with a couple of super-catchy tunes. I really like what I hear from New Amusement too.

    Hybrasil put on a superb show..one of the best live bands I've seen in a while.

    New Amusement, Una posted about their tune Gone to Sea, beautiful tune it is.

    Cashier no 9, gives me TK Maxx flashbacks akin to a Vietnam war vets (no nothing of their music)
