It's DiiiiiiiSmas! Party to end all annouced - buy tickets!

First guest for our mega bash is announced

Ahaahaha. Christmas. A time for giving, receiving, the giving of reception and the reception of a gift. This year at DiS we're in a particularly generous mood, not only giving you, our beautiful readers, a line-up of monstrously delightful proportions, but we're also donating all the profits that come into our hands to Shelter - a worthy cause, you'll surely agree.

This year, we're giving you arguably the best bill we've ever promoted, comprising a selection of our favourite artists of the year. The bands who have truly broken through and the bands we've been proud to support all of the way.

Our headliner for this year's bash were also kind enough to help us curate the bill, choosing some of their favourite performers they've met on tour and enjoyed on the bus whilst playing theatres and arenas around the country. Needless to say we're a little more than a bit excited about this one.

We are proud to announce the first of this year's performers, an artist whose stunning debut solo album was released this year through the rapidly growing Transgressive imprint and a singer/songwriter who has had us enraptured since his initial output through Exercise #1 what seems like years ago.

Mr. Jeremy Warmsley will be gracing our stage for a very special performance. He's pictured up there wearing a Santa hat.

So, you want some details? Want to buy tickets? Yeah!

You can buy tickets from the wonderful WeGotTickets by clicking here - they've also been kind enough to agree to a donation of 50p of the booking fee to Shelter per ticket purchased, which is more than lovely.

Check back over the coming week as we reveal more of this astonishing bill.
