Reprazent
|
|
Roni Sizes Reprazent burnt themselves in to the nations consciousness with the groundbreaking New Forms album making Drum & Bass a household name. Despite the absence of a follow up album the Reprazent crew are a live force to reckoned with. These phat funkateers play their music live dispelling the myth that all dance music is computer generated and lacking in soul Roni and his cohorts prove these assumptions couldnt be further from the truth. Fusing the soulfulness of funk with jazzy chords, frenetic percussion and
deep, deep basslines this is an irresistible live act. Expect nothing less than a breathtaking close to the first nights entertainment.

Groove Armada
|
|
This has been an incredible year for this London based duo of Tom Findley and Andy Cato. Taking their name from the club they started Groove Armada soon released a clutch o6f singles to some success but it wasnt until the release of the follow up to their debut Northern Star, last years Vertigo that things tarted to go supernova. Hitting the States in the unlikely guise as Elton Johns support act early this year to coincide with LPs Stateside release, is perhaps a mark of their true crossover appeal
their cool sound of immaculate funk and house making Vertigo the album of last summer. With remixes by Fayboy Slim of their booty shaking single I See You Baby helping their mainstream profile these boys are also a mean live act with attitude. Make sure you are down the front and shaking that ass.

Moloko
|
|
There cant be a single person under the age of 25 who cant have been hooked in to seductive melody of Sing It Back last year. This for many would have been their first taste of Moloko whose latest album Things To Make And Do has enjoyed huge sales but is much more diverse than the house music of Sing It Back. A maverick band that surfed the edges of the indie scene for years, Roisin Murphys gorgeous voice sounds like a more up-beat Beth Gibbon (Portishead) retaining the huskiness but more darkly humorous.
Live they employ a full band able to carry any of their studio ideas with ease but be prepared to witness some quirky musical ideas that will no doubt be laced with Murphys witticisms and sultry vocals. As Roisin said to partner Mark Brydon when they first met: Do you like my tight sweater? See how it fits my body? to which we can only add, yes we do!

The death of Bob Marley in May 1981 not only left behind some of the finest songs ever written but also one of the finest reggae bands of all time without a leader. The Wailers undeterred by such a tragic turn of events decided to continue; the line-up still contained some legendary names including keyboardist Junior Marvin, bassist Aston Family Man Barrett and his brother Carton. This is a one off chance to see one the most important groups in the history of African music bassist Barrett staking his part in the groups importance: "Every reggae band out there has to play Bob Marley and the Wailers' songs, you know?" he says. "Even just one. And no one plays them like the Wailers does, 'cause we're the ones who create and inspire them. They're the only thing that lasts forever." Unmissable.

Nitin Sawhney
|
|
The most underrated of artists for years Nitin made his mark with his stunning breakthrough album Beyond Skin that combined virtuoso
instrumentals with the most sonorous, beautiful soul pop. Narrowly missing a Brit Award nomination and the Mercury music awards was simply a case of bad timing as the merits of this album are too many to list here. Least to say Nitins mixture of western soul and hip hop with Indian instruments has won over critics and fans alike not by sheer novelty but by top notch song writing and sparkling production. First and foremost a live performer Sawhney and his band are superb and this will be a highlight of the days line up, whether they slip in to laid back soul, deep and deadly funk, or sublime tabla ragas this is one of the festivals most exciting bands.

Lynden David Hall
|
|
Lynden David Hall is not only a superb singer but also a fine guitarist to boot. Taking his influences from the likes of George Benson and working with producer Bob Powers in New York (DAngelo and Erykah Badu) Hall has created a fresh and exciting new blend of acoustic soul, a contemporary Marvin Gaye if you will with more hooks than your local fishing shop! Never one to be easily pigeon holed Hall is a dynamic performer with a great voice and a natural stage presence that has won him awards and a loyal fan base.
