I have a list at home but on Thursday I want to see New Build, Pond, Django Django and Abi Wade.
Definitely recommend Abi Wade to anyone, she's fantastic.
Looking forward to this as ever, although admit to being a bit out of touch with new music over the last year or two so drawing a blank on may of the names. However, discovering new music is half the point.
Any recommendations for somebody into messy indie rock / shoe gaze / folk / electro...
