12bar the apartment
this band has taken both the swindon scene and the music industry by storm in the last twelve months, having first announced themselves with their mid-afternoon slot on last year's swindon shuffle, their brilliantly received saturday evening slot at last year's sugarhill festival, before selling out their ep launch at the 12bar last december - the first, and only, unsigned band to do so. having just agreed a management deal with wildlife entertainment (artic monkeys, travis, craig david and more), this next year promises to be a big one for the alfonz.

attica seasons
stage time 21.50
these guys have a proper party going on when they're on stage, with their stomp along, infectious, but well written brand of folk rock. led by the multi-talented al bridges and backed by musicians from other top swindon bands, attica seasons will ensure the night is bouncing before the alfonz take the stage.

are a four piece band that hail from the darkest depths of west swindon, all with the same intense passion to create music that insights the mind, calms the soul and funks you up! the teabo show first aired on the turn of 2002 and haven't looked back since. their songbook continues to be filled with more and more classics as the show goes on.

buswell
stage time 20.15
summing buswells musical style is an enigma in itself. al bridges from attica seasons put it best - he said they were like the magic numbers, but sadder, and that made them the tragic numbers. in the last year or so, theyve supported the foals, completed two full UK tours, reached number 1 on the amazon hot 100 cd singles chart, and have been heard on XFM and BBCs radiowaves.

the shudders
stage time 19.30
as the self proclaimed saviours of post modern pirate folk, the shudders are bound to get the evening started with a swagger.
