From the pounding beats of Something Is Not Right With Me, to the cuddle inducing piano of Tuxedo, the energy of the music was capturing, if not a little sexy.

Live Review: Rodriguez & The Break

Getting on at 70 years, Rodriguez was assisted up to the microphone while stagehands organised his guitar for him. In spite of this, he needed no help with the set.

Live Review: Step Panther, Wax Witches & Foam

They played their cover for Nugget’s Liar Liar which was a highlight of the set. Thumbs up boys.

Live Review: Toro Y Moi, Jonti & Yukon Snakes

As the night edged on, the audience became more enraptured until it came to a head with Say That. On this evening, three hours felt like five minutes.

Live Review: Divine Fits & The Delta Riggs

Divine Fits, however, were as humble as a band could get, in spite of their impressive line-up.
