We are Cut Glass Accent. Formed in the latter half of 2002, Cut Glass Accent has been a frequent name in the local scene since their first show at the Blackbull in Bedlington back in August 03. In just over 6 years since their formation the band has played shows at venues as far and wide as Area 51 in Swindon to the 13th Note in Glasgow as well as famous venues such as The Stone Roses Bar in York and Newcastle's Carling Academy 2 and Northumbria University.

Bixby Canyon are:
Jake - Vox/guitar
Yelo - Bass
Fletcher - Drums Bixby Canyon (is that a Death Cab reference?) are harsh and grungy. Their frontman probably needs a bigger stage, even with the mic stands moved onto the floor he’s bouncing off his bandmates and running off to do a lightning lap of the half-empty room. Their unassuming bass player looks like Michael Cera, so it’s an impressive surprise when he steps up to the mic and screams like his guts are on fire. - Jody MacGregor - Rave Magazine live review

Love Amongst Ruin is the brain child of Steve Hewitt, drummer and songwriter in the multi million selling Placebo. As Love Amongst Ruin's frontman he takes the lead for the first time in what has already been described as "one of the most explosive live bands to come in 2010” This multi-faceted rock band promises the crunch of a stone age queen, the crossover appeal of a parkful of linkins and the melodicism of the hardiest fighter of foos. Drop in twists of New Order/Depeche Mode electro-twangle, Can/Kasabian motorika, Cure atmospherics and hardcore Metallica riffage.
