Bloody Tourists formed on the eve of 2005. Three friends from the south of England, inspired by The Pixies, White Stripes and The Fall decided to write and perform to see what would happen. Learning the instruments as they went, they gigged everywhere and anywhere to build up a fanbase. Bloody Tourists have had great success in the time they have been together including coming a close second in Bath and London's Battle of the Bands, becoming ‘Artist of the Month’ on littlebazaar.com and getting to No.1 in Extraplay.com's online world chart.  They are amazing live, so check their MySpace for upcoming gigs.

THE CEDARS

From www.smallfish-online.net:

"The Cedars are a bluesy Americana throwback, belting out hard-edged ballads cut right through with gleeful cynicism and solipsistic insensitivity.  Songs of jilted love and distant lovers are spiked with south-of-the-border travelling imagery and conjure up scenes of dusty crossroads and cracked river beds so vivid that your throat gets dry just listening to it.”

ELIJAHFELL

Elijah Fell is a guitar driven rock and roll band hailing from Los Angeles, California. Smother Magazine says, “A fun-filled indie pop affair, Skyline [their 2005 EP] bobs and weaves in among pop’s most glistening songwriters with catchy, infectious hooks well in hand. The album is a cohesive look towards the innermost thoughts of the band. Never lingering too long on the darker side of things, Skyline has a raw energy that many bands are lacking these days.”
