The Maybeez

The Maybeez are a band originating from Derby, UK, where they remain. They comprise a singing bass player, a guitarist, and a drummer. The Maybeez' music is characterised by powerful, but clear vocal delivery, distorted guitar, slightly syncopated basslines, and highly dynamic drumming. The lyrical content of their songs ranges widely, evoking surreal imagery in some songs, and real experiences and commentary in other songs. They recently released their second EP entitled 'Jebus de Preguntas'.

The New Verb

The New Verb is one lady from London, Imogen Goldie, writing and recording songs in her bedroom.
She is accompanied on stage by drummer + part-time polymorph Ian Kamran. She indulges in long hours immersed in her beloved digital 8 track recorder (aka her bedroom studio), fruity loops and warm baths where lyrics seem to come easier. She recorded her first tracks with the help of John Eacott (the hKippers) and has since then been taking it upon herself to record whatever the hell she feels like whenever the hell she feels like it.

Bang Bangs

How to mend a broken heart: step 1- form a band. Matt Smith (vocals, guitar) watches as his girlfriend runs off with the boyfriend of fellow singer and bassist Sarah Clark. Dealing with such events in the only way they could, Matt and Sarah formed Bang Bangs. Two years on and two become four, locked together in a maelstrom union, playing like this unholy, ungodly world has nothing to offer but this. Maybe memories of deceitful lovers still hang heavy. Maybe such intense performances are the only thing they’re made for.
