Anni Rossi [http://www.myspace.com/annirossi]
I saw Anni Rossi at the beginning of 2008 and was quite simply blown away - just her voice and her viola are present, but she writes and performs such inventive, heartfelt songs that encompass the very very very best bits of lo-fi, pop, folk, singer-songwriter and leftfield invention. She's back in Leeds to promote her new album on 4AD. Come down to The Packhorse and let her warm up a cold Tuesday October night for you...

"Blessed with a distinctive voice that leaps effortlessly across registers, she plays viola simultaneously, plucking and bowing virtuoso accompaniments as she sings. She has been caterwauling and foot stompin' her way into audiences' hearts across Europe ever since Four Tet spotted her and got her invited to perform at London's Homefires Festival in 2005."

Rollin Hunt [http://www.myspace.com/rollinghunter]
Rollin supports Anni with his lovely laid back, lo fi tender pop - think Jeffrey Lewis and Jonathan Richman hanging out on an American city beach at night in Autumn. Or maybe playing a few songs on a rickety old guitar in the basement of their shared house. So, ace, basically.

Plus one more TBC.
