Ponzo, Eszter Vida, Shoplifting

Ponzo are a gothic art-rock trio inspired by 80s New Wave, Trip-Hop and ambient soundscapes. They combine fretless bass, esoteric lyrics, textured drums and experimental guitar to show their haunted, yet nostalgic, musical vision.

Eszter Vida is the indie-rock/dream-pop project of the Leeds/Sheffield-based singer-songwriter. Together with bassist/co-songwriter Lola Wainwright, guitarist Ben Whiteley, drummer/producer Evan Martin and James Bromley on keys, they've woven a warm, dreamy sonic landscape, cherry-picking the yearning and nostalgia of late 80s new wave/early 90s indie-dream pop bands like The Cure, Wolf Alice and The Cranberries with the singer-songwriter wit and grit of Courtney Barnett, Snail Mail and Julia Jacklin.

Leeds based duo shoplifting. are an electronic post-punk band exorcising dormant anger at the unconscionable behaviour of the wealthy and those who sit idly by. The duo share the vocal duties with baritone guitar, synth and bass accompanying the fast paced drums as they shift from heavy upbeat punk to low groovy dance beats.
