STA All Dayer 4 - Tickets On Sale Now!
Look look! We're proud to announce the intial acts for this year's Smalltown America Charity All Dayer. The
event takes place on Saturday September 15th 2007, at our usual home of 93 Feet East in east London. We're proud to announce the following bands are the first to sign up:
An Emergency
[Freakscene Records / Vacuous Pop / Captains Of Industry]
Punkrockdanceskronk all the way from the wilds of Exeter. The British Q And Not U? Maybe so, they'd sound right at home amongst other Dischord luminairies. Whatever they may be, they're here to make you shake your booty, and trust us when we say that you will...
Clone Quartet [Tigertrap Records / Smalltown America]
Decadent, honest and literate indie-dance-pop from Northern Ireland - yes we're biased, they've just joined STA but believe us when we say that CQ are the real deal. They're the Bright Eyes that you can dance to, and those guitar riffs! Man, this all-dayer is looking sweet..
Fighting With Wire [Smalltown America]
STA lynchpins FWW return to the AD stage with their super-charged power-pop. This date will form part of a national UK/Ireland tour to promote debut album 'Man Vs Monster' - the sound of Jimmy Eat World sticking a biro in Braid's neck and running away fast with their drum parts.
Fury Of The Headteachers [Grace Records]
Currently on tour supporting the release of their third single "Not What It Used To Be" and the forthcoming debut album "You Took A Scythe Home"; FOTHT are kicking everyone's ass from here to Japan.
House Of Brothers [Big Scary Monsters]
Crisp and sparkling, acoustic-folk emo from ex-The Murder of Rosa Luxemburg's Andrew Jackson. Piano, handclaps, strings - arresting melodies. The fact that a previous All-Dayer luminary is one Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. should not be lost on us at this juncture...
Make Model
Probably the most exciting noise coming out of Scotland right now. The Delgados shack up with Broken Social Scene for the summer and make beautiful babies. This band are so hot they aren't even a 'great new band' - they're just a great band. Supporting Do Make Say Think this month and playing festivals through the summer - add them to your myspace before 80,000 other people do. Trust us.
Nic Dawson Kelly
Positioned somewhere between Adams, Dylan and Banhart, recent months have seen him play with the likes of Camera Obscura, but this time he's bringing his rough-around-the-edges folk to the second stage.
Rolo Tomassi [Holy Roar Records]
SpeedTechnoHorrorGlitchCore; Rolo Tomassi have made a big noise in a fast way. Yes, they're doing their exams - but they'll have had their results by AD4. Ace band and career prospects? What more do you want?
Trust us when we say that there's a more to come. A lot more. Tickets are available now, priced at £15.00, from the ever-wonderful WeGotTickets; all profits go to Cancer Research UK and The Connection At St. Martin's.
