Monday 17th May
Crocodiles @ the Stags Head
Similar to a lot of bands that emerged from The Smell scene a couple of years ago, Crocodiles differ from their LA compatriots by the sheer amount of dark, psychedelic weirdness they manage to cram into their lo-fi noise pop. Taking the logic that No Age are like the Descendents played through a telephone, then these guys are kind of like Jesus and Mary Chain soundtracking a really dark acid trip.

Here We Go Magic @ The Lexington
A musical collage of psych-folk, chamber pop, ethereal field sounds and ELO-style experimental pop which is weaved together with hypnotic, dreamy vocals, it’s probably no surprise to find out that Here We Go Magic’s creative center Luke Temple made his name as a muralist in New York City.

Real Estate @ 93 Feet East
A four-piece from the Garden State (that's New Jersey for those who aren't familiar with US geography or the work of Zach Braff), Real Estate are a bath of sound that takes all of the best bits of The Beach Boys, Velvet Underground and Television and mixes them up into a crazy, but really friendly beach party.
