Clash Magazine & Nambucca presents:
SISTERAY: 10.45 - 11.15
”BUTT-KICKIN’ NEW PUNK” Chris Hawkins, BBC 6 Music
“Gnarly… sounds like the golden age of 2000s UK indie” Phil Taggart, BBC Radio 1
“Like the young Oasis – if they’d read the broadsheets” Louder Than War
Sisteray came together out of their shared love for bands such as The Smiths, Velvet Underground, The Clash and The Replacements. This is proven in the upbeat melodies and lyrical observations of 21st century Britain, combined with high-octane live performances that have been key to making their live shows unmissable. They have recently built up their live audience through a series of #guerillagigs, using everything within their means to persuade promoters to let them have a first on slots at shows big and small.

THE DEAD FREIGHTS: 8.30 - 9.00
Formed in 2015, The Dead Freights are an indie rock’n’roll band from Southampton, UK. Consisting of frontmen Charlie James and Robert Franklin, bassist Robby Spencer and drummer Louis Duarte.
Dual harmonies, with a redolence of a Lennon/McCartney partnering, strut over crunchy, melodic guitars twinned with a powerfully tight rhythm section. The Dead Freights prowl any stage with a classic, contagious rock’n’roll attitude and a strong arsenal of suggestive, driving anthems.
After playing in and around the UK for three years, the band signed to indie label Mi7 Records in mid-2018 and are soon set to record their next release at Abbey Road Studios.

JAMES BAXTER: 7.45 - 8.15
At 21 James was travelling across the United States, spending time in studios from Albuquerque to Los Angeles, taking influence from the deserts and wilderness of the Mid West and West Coast.
Returning to the U.K, James brought back big influences from across the Atlantic, and blended them with his British-born idols. With nods to the likes of James Taylor, Ryan Adams, Paul McCartney, Elliott Smith, Nick Drake and Paul Simon, this Southampton songwriter is set to showcase the technicolour melody and incessant lyricism of his album in waiting.
Winter 2018 will see James head out on tour to promote his new record - The Paradise EP.
