JAD FAIR, GILLES V.RIEDER and LUMBEROB
America's craziest singer / songwriter Jad Fair comes over with his collection of naive, funny and quirky songs, accompanied by fellow Half Japanese members Gilles V.Rieder and Rob Erickson (Lumberob) on drums and guitar.

Jad and Gilles will also be performing a few of the songs from their new project Monster Party, whose album "Haunted House" is available exclusively in advance at this show, along with Jad Fair's new CD "Let's Born To Rock"
(official release Autumn 2004).

ALLESCHWINDEL
Intriguing decadents Alleschwindel present their highly theatrical cabaret act (featuring ex-members of Badgewearer, Archbishop Kebab, The Male Nurse and The Sativa Drummers amongst others).

"Imagine Tom Waits' band meeting a Berlin electro krew, with Marlene Dietrich on vocals" Cranial Health live review

"Unconventional, terribly un-British stop-start rhythms are the norm-polka and waltz, and vocals somewhere between Edith Piaf and Courtney Love. Songs of self-hatred, intrigue and deceit are the order of the day - all to be toasted in vodka, coated in concrete, and dumped in the Black Sea."
Stuart McHugh (Is This Music?)

EFTUS SPECTUN
Eftus Spectun are an angular math pop trio from Bath / Bristol who have been developing a unique blend of dissonance, dislocated rhythm and infectious pop melody. They are known for shocking audiences with their frantic live performances
