Frightened Rabbit

Though the past year has seen the Scottish Frightened Rabbit finally stepped into public view, with more extensive touring and some recordings now publicly available, the past few years have largely been about the band quietly honing their sound and cultivating their art. Frightened Rabbit is now a four-piece comprising Scott Hutchison (vocals/guitar), Billy Kennedy (guitar/keyboard), Grant Hutchison (drums) and Andy Monaghan (guitar/keyboard).

The Sheepdogs

This band won the contest to be the first unsigned artist to be featured on the cover of the Rolling Stone magazine. From the prairie city of Saskatoon, Canada come the Sheepdogs, 4 young gentlemen who revel in the joy of rock n roll so wholeheartedly, it's downright contagious. Sporting the long-haired looks of their musical forefathers, the lads make the most of their 2 guitars, bass and drums combo.
