Bez
Quite simply mad for it, Bez made his mark as the madcap dancer with the Happy Mondays. The Wayne Sleep of indie now turned DJ and author. Mark Morris
Lead singer of brit-pop heroes The Bluetones, and now successful solo artist to boot, Mark Morriss has been playing the musical field for the last decade and-a-half, seeing him recently described as a 'unique take on the role of the modern day singer-songwriter.' – The Point
The Xcerts
Searing Scottish indie band making heavy soul-fuelled rock influenced by the likes of The Smiths and The Clash. With a punky, psychedelic feel to their music, The Xcerts sound is both truly original and consistently passionate. Fervent live shows and arena-sized tunes make this band ones to watch out for.
‘Young (Belane)’ is release on 27th September as a download single and video on all good digital retailers. Order a special signed copy of the album ‘Scatterbrain‘ from which it is taken HERE!

Robert Plant has revealed his ears bled for two days after seeing former Led Zeppelin bandmate John Paul Jones play with Them Crooked Vultures at the Royal Albert Hall.
Talking to The Independent newspaper, the singer said: “I feel so far away from heavy rock now. It’s quite odd, how mine and John’s paths seem to have crossed over – we’ve sort of gone into each others’ worlds a bit.”

This year is the first year of "The Falkirk Wheel Festival" and headlining is local band The Ray Summers.The event will be on Saturday 30th October 2010 and tickets cost just £7.00.A great line-up of support acts is to be announced over the coming weeks.Lead guitarist Dougie from the band commented "We've not played a big show in Falkirk for absolute ages so when we heard that a big event was being organised at The Falkirk Wheel we were delighted to be asked to play. We've played all over the country but nowhere quite like The Falkirk Wheel. We're sure it will turn out to be a really cool place to do a gig. Quite fancy playing a wee acoustic show on the Wheel itself!This year will be a trial event held inside.Next year there will be two stages one inside and one out with other entertainment.This event does not have camping but there are a number of hotels, hostels and guest houses in the area for overnight stays.More information as it happens..........
