Cate Le Bon Pretty cute set. Twangy plucked acoustic guitar and simple lyrics. The Cheek Deritive dullness. Felt like I should have been watching them reherse in their parents’ garage.

Pete Ingo Unfortunately, we mostly missed Pete, but we caught his last track – seemed nice enough. Viking Moses
Player Piano Energetic but still soulful. Happy discovery. Listening to the Into The Dark EP on repeat as I write this. The Pictish Trail
Conan Moccasin Pretty dull on the whole. Kept expecting them to really get going, but it just never happened. Best we could say about the lead singer was “sounds like a chipmunk” and they murdered a Teenagers cover. Oops. Metric
Jay Jay Pistolet An unassuming man in a jumper far too warm for the tiny venue and hot lights, but a mesmerising acoustic set with 50s tones and twee lyrics. Slow Club
