Chasm

There are more than one artist named Chasm, one an Australian hip hop DJ, the other a technical death metal group from Scotland 1) Chasm the DJ is heavily influenced and inspired by soul, roots, reggae and jazz music; all of which is highly evident in the construction of his unique production that results in Chasm bringing a distinctive flavour to Australian hip hop. With a penchant for old analogue gear and dusty vinyl, this beat-smith can most often be found deep in the crates of his local record store.

The Down & Outs

A Four piece from Glasgow that was recently described as.. "A Mix between 60s beat groups (kinks, beatles) The Smiths and The Buzzcocks." Whipping up a mix of musical whimsy, observant lyrics and thrashing vintage guitars The Down & Outs are well on their way out of the gutter. The Down & Outs are based in Glasgow and were recently signed by social club records.

The Cinnamons

The Cinnamons equate to a fresh slant on the (phenomenal) pop-scene blossoming from Glasgow, Scotland.
Influences from The Pixies through 80's electronica - they manage to steer well clear of the well trod paths of Glasvegas/Franz Ferdinand/Simple Minds mindset - 'we want to rock stadiums' to produce a sound that is instant as it is unique as it is infectious. A truly talented band that I was fortunate enough to catch on their last tour - Lucasda Jan '09

Hoverboards

Formed after a night of alcohol fuelled nostalgia this 5 piece band came together to play the kind of songs they listened to back in the day, and hope to inspire the kids of today with such awesome sounds! A bit of a mad bunch, each with their own specific tastes in music. But a unanimous love for the whacky and catchy stylings of Pop-punk brings them together to create tunes that leave people thinking "Great Scott!" Shortlisted for the NiGMA's 'Best Live Act' Award 2012!
