MJ Hibbett & the Validators
On the final night of a monster tour promoting their hotly tipped fourth album Regardez, Ecoutez et Repetez, the Validators continue their slow but sure progress towards national institution status. Insightful, witty and kind, these are the kind of tuneful and memorable songs Stephen Fry would have written if he'd been a songwriter. And gone to Leicester Poly.
The Rocky Nest
Like The Housemartins, William Wilberforce and white phone boxes, the Nest prove conclusively that being from Hull and being ace are far from mutually exclusive. Warm-hearted storytelling pop with chiming guitars and big smiles.
The Pete Green Corporate Juggernaut
Sheffield's great underachieving anti-scenesters limber up for a coveted slot at this year's Indietracks festival. Sparkly, wide-eyed popsongs about trains, rubbish football, optimism, trains, patience, the Daily Mail, love, trains, the NME awards, pubs and trains.
