the Native Cats

The Native Cats are a duo based in Hobart, Tasmania consisting of Julian Teakle (ex-Frustrations and Bad Luck Charms) on bass and Peter Escott on vocals. Both program backing music. The Native Cats frequently gig in Hobart and tour regularly to Melbourne. Escott's distinctive tenor and Teakle's punk credentials lend the band a musical distinctiveness that brought them to the attention of NME in March 2009 who singled them out as a band to keep an eye on.

Trim The Barber

Once upon a visit to the local gentlemen’s hair salon, it was noticed that the barbers hair was itself, lank, overgrown and listless.

And thus it was that the barber became the trimmed... Trim the Barber formed in London, UK in February 2009 from members of Running Riots, Bin Drinkers, Seven Days Later and Federal Threat.

Loop's sound was characterized by strong and influences in addition to the minimalist mayhem of The Stooges and MC5.
