We’ve already mentioned the BBC showcase going on at the festival, but Billboard has more details:
The Radio 2/6 Music showcase is set for March 18 at Buffalo Billiards and will be headlined by Embrace. The bill will also feature Dogs Die In Hot Cars, Go! Team, James Blunt, Tom Baxter and Amy Smith. (full story)
Additionally, I got this note from Martin Bowen at FF Vinyl Records:
Just a quick note to say that its not only the Scottish that will be hitting the festival this year. As well as top comic-rappers Goldie Looking Chain from Newport, Wales there’s Jarcrew (on Gut records) heading out for a showcase and the amazing scuzz rock of The Martini Henry Rifles on my own lil label who are playing on Friday 18th at the Blender Balcony. We’ve just got 5/5 from Alternative Press for their debut album in the UK “Superbastard” and we’re all over the moon and burning up what remains of our credit cards to get out there and play the most intense 22 minutes of punk rock the festivals seen.
Cool.
