Lesser Panda

"Cavalier quintet Lesser Panda used to be one of the capitals best-kept secrets but a string of deeply impressive shows has left them teetering on the verge of popularity. Fronted by Hispanic heartthrob Mariano Robles, they skewer their goth-hued 80s anthems like "Ghostdance" and "Carousel" with killer choruses and aren't afraid to crack open the punk-funk. Could this be the year of the Panda? Only a fool would say otherwise." - Music Week Tipster

Virals

Virals is the latest project from Shaun Hencher, last seen fronting the much-loved Dionysian punks, Lovvers. Following the less than dramatic demise of that band, Virals offers a new beginning and see's Shaun predominately writing, playing and recording on his own. And with that new beginning comes a fresh approach to songwriting that takes cues from the sunshine vibe of certain American states yet retaining a suitably English feel.

Sam Beeton

Coming from a large extended family of "musicalists" and singers, most of my junior was spent bearing witness to the songs, the harmony and the real adventures that singin" and strummin" could afford. So before long and long before the Government felt it was time for me to be properly educated - I already had been; because around about this time, The Beatles came along like a gale force wind blowing past a news stand, flicking through every page along the way.
