THE FOG BAND
Fronted by the startlingly-monickered Bobby Grindrod, a sophisticated
sartorial throwback firmly rooted in 1962, the Fog Band are, in their
own words: "a quivering rock disgrace".Think Neon Boys
(pre-Television/Voidoids), MC5 and Captain Beefheart rolling down the
track with no breaks, about to derail, listening to early Who and
Yardbirds. Their debut single ‘The Law Of The Sea’ was released last
year on Purr Records.

THE SPEED OF SOUND
Quirky organ/guitar multivox combo featuring:
* Medway magus Kevin Younger, the man behind Fifty Watts of Power
* legendary singing drummer Debbie Green (Headcoatees, A-Lines)
* the mysterious James out of Baby Birkin
* indie guitar henchman Pete Momtchiloff (Heavenly, Would-Be-Goods,
etc.)
Playing selections from their brand new double album Tomorrow's < /div>

MON FIO
MELODY! ROMANCE! DRAMA! CATCHINESS! HUMOUR! Just 5 words to describe
the heart-breakin', romance-makin' new old-fashioned POP sound of Mon
Fio. To which add a mean vibraphone and a singer who is so chatty that
the songs sometimes gets in the way of the jokes. Tap your toes, laugh
in the right places and realise that a vibraphone is basically a huge
fuck-off xylophone.

ADAPTER ADAPTER
Influences? All the great, genius sixties freakbeat/psych/pop acts
(Wimple Winch, Screaming Lord Sutch , Beach Boys, etc…) had one thing in
common. They wanted to sound different. It would be foolish to ‘copy’
the sound of any band.
