The Eccentrics
Formed in November 2000, and had their first gig 8 days later supporting The Vibrators. Previous members include Trotsky (of the Subhumans), and Sandra (from Korrupt). Still unsigned, though have toured the USA and played in Europe - very DIY, releasing their own CD's and DVD's. They are a throwback to old school punk, with a hint of garage punk and ska in there for good measure.

The Marvelettes
The Marvelettes were an American singing girl group on the motown label. As Motown's first successful female vocal group, the Marvelettes were most notable for recording the label's first US #1 pop hit, "Please Mr. Postman," and for setting the precedent for later Motown girl groups such as The Supremes and Martha & The Vandellas. In 1996, they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.

Lone Ranger
Borrowing his stage name from the popular TV Western hero of the same name, the Lone Ranger was one of Jamaica's most influential early dancehall DJs. He helped pioneer a newly rhythmic, on-the-beat rhyming style that led DJ toasting into the modern age, and punctuated his lyrics with bizarre exclamations and sound effects ("bim" and "ribbit" were his favorites) that made him perhaps the most imaginative stylist of his time.
