•••JOHN E VISTIC - ROCK N ROLL SOUND SYSTEM•••
Vistic fronts this 5-piece rock n roll behemoth with his whisky-drenched vocal, incendiary guitar style and hypnotic stage presence, John E. Vistic is a well-known figure on the Bristol and West Country live circuit. Inspired by great song writers such as Cave, Cohen and Dylan as well as guitar bands, like The Drones, The Stooges, and Dinosaur Jr, John E Vistic's mission is to deliver powerful and iconic rock n roll songs with a raw and bleeding heart.
'The John E Vistic Experience have something special the flavour of old school rock and roll delivered with an originality and freshness that makes it appealing, an energy that is hypnotising and a swagger that draws you in and spits you out when they're done.'
•••BIRDMAN CULT•••
Bristol post-punks and garage rock cultists playing big riff anthems to shake your bits to! described as Lout Rock and Indie doom, The band are gathering a rep on the mean streets of Bristol for their energetic live shows.
"This is a big sounding band, like it belongs in a stadium rather than a small venue. They stride around the gloom on stage at Bristols famous Louisiana venue and seem all knowing. The vocalists exudes the same louche charm ads maybe a young Jack Nicholson and the band seem to have all arrived from gigs with their other bands such is the collision of styles."

•••SHOUN SHOUN•••
('shoon-shoon') From Berlin now Bristol based atmospheric noise pop and art psych rock with the urban ennui of Nico and the noise of Sonic Youth.

Their debut album Monsters & Heroes was championed by the likes of Louder Than War, Joyzine, as well as BBC Radio 6 and saw them garner airplay from Canada to Berlin.
Shoun Shoun's sound is hard to categorise. Moving between art rock and noise pop they embrace the duality of darkness and bliss, the melody versus the cacophony. The Ying and the Yang. Their music twists, turns and rotates whilst lyrical themes of criminal escapades, the self-destruction of our world or the daily grind remain focused within the psychedelic swirl like the eye of the storm.
