FESTIVAL LINE-UP

WorldService Project (UK):  Keyboardist Dave Morecroft leads “serious scronk jazz WSP crew through irreverent blend of face-slapping funk, odd metered grooves and a clutch of catchy, zizagging melodies all to dazzling effect.” Time Out  http://worldserviceproject.tumblr.com/

Neo (Italy)  progressive avant-punk jazz trio combining explosive energy, punk angularity with highly improvised music. http://www.myspace.com/neoneoband

Owls Are Not (What They Seem) (Poland)  aggressive drum n bass mixed with complex African rhythms. http://owlsarenot.bandcamp.com/

Les Rauchen Verboten (Spain)  momentous speech that describes violence, landscapes and stories of a raw, joyful and at times sarcastic perspective on life  www.myspace.com/lesrauchenverboten

Alfie Ryner (France) quintet of stirring music, elegant and poised jazz to punk to groove to bolero.www.myspace.com/alfierynermemorial
