Oh No Ono is an experimental pop quintet from the tiny Danish town of Aalborg. Their music, intricate and otherworldly, defies conventions and expectations (and sometimes gravity). The ten dense, hypertextured sour-sweet-sad opuses found on their US debut album, Eggs, are truly breathtaking to behold; the band creates bewitching pop symphonies that unfold themselves more with each successive listen.

Within months of forming The Vanguards found themselves recording in The Charlatans studio with legendary production duo Dave Tolan and Jim Spencer (Primal Scream, The Charlatans) – the result is ‘Regress’ – a gritty blast of raw energy blended with a genuine pop melody, it’s a rock/pop hit in the making.

Synthy indie-pop from derby, often seen around the midlands (and, increasingly, further afield) supporting bands like Bearsuit, The Research, Mates of State and so on.
