A platform for quality, signed and unsigned bands to showcase their talents.  Come and have a drink in Star Bar and enjoy some exciting new acts


The Rrrs stand for madcap guitar pop laced with sarcasm, paranoia and sex
 
 
Quirky rock with spikes of punk-fuelled pop, wicked punky riffs, songs that grab you by the throat and star presence that punches out

A much talked about band from South Wales with an alternative indie sound fronted by powerful female vocals
 
 
The infectious up-beat tempo throws you into the deep end: a breath of fresh air
The Bad Apples

We play music, thats what we do is about as far as a pigeon hole goes for these music monkeys.
 
  Stoner

Sexy, sultry and incredibly soulful, Stoner know the secrets of aural seduction and deploy them well. Play that funky music, baby!
Rock Pirates

Definitely a force to be wreckoned with. Influenced by AC/DC, Led Zeppelin and Thin Lizzy they are set to get the crowd goin' whatever the situation.

A loud, heavy, folk, blues, English rock band. Strength in the groove and songs about folk.

"Absolutely sensational band!" Kerrang! Radio
"Refreshing & essential" The Fly
"Arguably the most exciting band in Britain right now" NME

  The Joules

Possibly the hottest thing to come out of the local scene, ever, and after a near brush with death they are more committed to rocking out than Granny Clampet.
