The Reward
The musical influences of this Glasgow, Scotland four-piece are clear, and they’re not ashamed to admit it. Echoes of Interpol, Joy Division and Editors resonate through their music, but The Reward have created a sound drenched in reverb and haunting lyrics which more than stands on its own, shoulder to shoulder with the music of their peers.

Heyday
From a group of melodious musicians brewed in Belfast come beautiful, unique and catchy tracks that discuss the penetrating, sometimes painstaking, passion that we ultimately live for – love. Combining whimsical vocals with inspired instrumentation ranging from the cheeky pep of the Beatles to the heartfelt lyrics of Coldplay to the radiating energy of Radiohead, Heyday has hit a peak in musical performance.
Kill It Kid
Having already caused quite a stir within the Bristol and Bath, UK music scene, folk rock quintet Kill It Kid now have their sights set on nationwide notoriety. Rewiring pre-war delta blues, compressing the Mississippi’s memoirs, their debut EP is looking to be one of the most innovative and exalted records of 2008. Kill It Kid are a group that evoke a million adjectives. Their music is “gorgeous, sometimes raucous” with a “swaggering, brutal charm”, but the subtle sensibilities of their song writing are what will help them endure.
Billy Wears Dresses
If wearing women’s clothing inspires such fun and imaginative music, then all males who know how to strum a guitar should head to the dress barn immediately. Billy Wears Dresses, a tripod of UK talent create funky, clunky, catchy tunes – good for a day at the beach or a group dance at a bah mitzvah. The jolly tone and charming lyrics give way to an overall cheery, toe-tapping good time
