MakethisRelate
MakethisRelate are a four piece alternative rock band from Glasgow, Scotland. The band were brought together in September 2008 by their mutual appreciation of fellow Scots, Biffy Clyro, whilst studying sound production at college.
After their first rehearsal, the members of the band saw the potential in their chemistry together and began to take band seriously. Since then, the band's catchy style of alternative rock has landed them a number of shows all over Scotland and even a gig as part of the Red Bull Bedroom Jam.

Poppy And The Jezebels
I first heard of Poppy And The Jezebels back in September 2006 when they performed a live session for Mark Riley's BBC 6 Music radio show. The music is a glorious mix of 80's post punk, pop, Velvet Underground and even a splash of kraut rock for good measure. Their debut single can currently be heard on their MySpace page.... http://www.myspace.com/poppyandthejezebels
