Beady Eye |
|||
Liam Gallagher’s influence on the evolution of British rock is unquestionable. However, his illustrious past with the legendary band Oasis does not overshadow his exciting new work with Beady Eye. Surrounded by mates from his previous band - Gem Archer, Andy Bell and Chris Sharrock – this powerful band will debut their new record ‘Be’ at this year’s Benicàssim festival. Beady Eye truly represents the musical consolidation of a band that makes music with true passion. |

Johnny Marr |

If you haven’t heard the sounds of Johnny Marr, you probably haven’t listened to music in the last thirty years! As the guitarist and composer for the hugely influential The Smiths, he has also been the creator of chords, melodies and riffs for groups such as The The, Electronic, Pet Shop Boys, The Healers, The Cribs, and Modest Mouse. His new album ‘The Messenger’ unites his wisdom with immense guitar riffs; which far from recreating nostalgia present a Johnny Marr in really high spirits. |

Knife Party |

In their mixing pot of electro-house and dubstep, Rob Swire and Gareth McGrillen - the two guys also known for the explosive sounds of Pendulum - have the unusual effect of infecting rhythm. “Haunted House”, their latest EP, is the fool proof bait they've prepared so everyone moves their body and dances till dawn. |
