Bands...

(1) LUCKY SOUL http://www.myspace.com/luckysoulluckysoul

In an alternate universe where Cowellism doesn’t rule (and ruin) everything it surveys, that bubble is already planet-sized and Lucky Soul are already huge. With A Coming Of Age, these pop dreamers have made the record which deserves to make that a reality. (Simon Price)

Independent on Sunday: “The sound of a band switching from black-and-white to colour. One of the albums of the year, hands down”
Metro: “A romantically British institution”
The Word: “Just pure uncut delight, and we can’t stop playing this... “
Pitchfork: “Confident song craft, teenager-sized emotion, and overall pop immediacy”
Popjustice: “a high quality pop troupe”

(2) MYSTERY BAND TO BE REVEALED VERY, VERY SOON

(3) THE LODGER http://www.myspace.com/thelodgerleeds
Beginning in a Leeds bedsit in 2004 as Ben Siddall's solo project, The Lodger are now three albums and tour of the UK, Europe, Japan and the USA into their career.

Coke Machine Glow: “songs in which happiness and anxiety scuffle in an ostensibly cartoonish flurry of dust and keypad squawk, but somehow, and quite unexpectedly, leave real bruises when the clouds part”
Pitchfork: “(they bring) refreshing, hook-filled simplicity to the Orange Juice blend of disco and sensitive jangle-pop”
