ARIEL PINK'S HAUNTED GRAFFITI
http://www.myspace.com/arielpink

Los Angeles’ notorious lo-fi pop oufit Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti return to Nottingham to support their new record, their first for new label 4AD.

With roots going back as far as 1996, the West Coast act are as sublime as they are surreal with a sound loaded with hazy nostalgia and a fiercely experimental pop palette. The band (currently comprised of Ariel Pink, Kenny Gilmore, Cole M.G.N., Aaron Sperske and Tim Koh) have picked up particular plaudits for the Haunted Graffiti releases via Paw Tracks, The Doldrums (2004), Worn Copy (2005) and House Arrest (2006).

'Round and Round"'s rollerskate verses and crazy-melodic John Hughes prom chorus officially puts him on another level.' (Pitchfork Best New Music)

BRILLIANT COLORS

The San Francisco trio have been projecting a glittering stream of noisy pop gems over the Bay Area and beyond in the past three years, with four 7" singles including releases on Captured Tracks and Make a Mess, and an LP on the classic Oakland imprint Slumberland, carving a charmed path through indie melody and bratty punk primitivism.

LA LA VASQUEZ
http://www.myspace.com/lalavasquezband

'Get on the party train with La La Vasquez. After playing their first show at Upset The Rhythm's Yes Way last year they've run riot in sweaty rooms up (and sometimes down) the UK matching laid-back vocal harmonies with wicked shouts. Now they're moving on from their savage days with a melodic set of fuzzy jams that are a must hear in 2010. Au Pairs, Young Marble Giants, Bikini Kill, K Records. . . whatever, they love that stuff but they're on their own track. 3 Parts girl, 2 Parts beer, 1 Part Cider, all rulin'.

Plus DJ's PSYCHIC PARTY, NWN SNDSYSTM, CATHOLIC GIRLS & MORE...
