Artists Appearing:

• 4 or 5 Magicians - Brighton up and comings hot for Barlow and Guided By Voices.
• 65daysofstatic - An audio-visual, post-rock rollercoaster ride, nuclear guitar riffs collide into drum and bass, trance and back again.
  
• Blood Red Shoes - Brighton based boy-girl guitar and drums blues assault; White Stripes/Mudhoney cave-man blues throbbing with monolithic power.
  
• Cats and Cats and Cats - Post-rock gang from somewhere in the middle of the country, unafraid of strings or turning things up to 11. Meow!
  
• Dartz! - Dischord-tinged, incredibly driven punk-rock/disco-jazz from North Yorkshire.
  
• Dead! Dead! Dead! - Dazzling Arcade Fire-in-training mix of epic yearning and a massive clattering percussion coming on as typically English in its sadistic eccentricity as slipping arsenic into your PG Tips.
  
• Distophia - The most entertaining band in Britain? Robot guitar noise, glorious melodies and songs about Robert Redford. Essential!
  
• Fickle Public - Underground pop collides with dischordant post-hardcore, FP will play brand new tracks from much anticipated second album.
• Frank Turner - The former Million Dead frontman makes a welcome return to the STA All-Dayer with his solo folk offensive.
• I Was A Cub Scout - Nottingham’s finest purveyors of disco-pop-punk-rock-whatever, coming off somewhere between The Postal Service and Digital Ash Bright Eyes
• Jetplane Landing (acoustic set) - Ferris from Jetplane tries to break it down armed only with acoustic guitar and handclaps.
  
• Leila Zerai - Sweet female vocals wrapped around dark melodies and subject matter.
• Oppenheimer - Blissfully sweet synth pop duo, hailing from Belfast label mates of Spinto Band
  
• Pagan Wanderer Lu - A master craftsman of melodic electronic indie; a bit like Jarvis Cocker playing with a groovebox.
  
• Scanners - London based post-punks and US Bloc Party labelmates giving Editors a run for their money; very clever lyrics, spiky guitars with touches of late period Blondie and Joy Division.
  
• The Mighty Roars - Post-punk garage pop who take much-darker trips into more improvised spaces
  
• The Retro Spankees - They have onstage cuddly toys, and songs about Richard ‘twice-nightly’ Whiteley and the perils of being an ant. For fans of: Bearsuit and Help She Can’t Swim.
  
• The Young Playthings - STA's own kiss-me-quick, punk pop troubadours. They'll steal your girlfriend but leave you smiling.
• Tiger Force - Rough Trade said “it's like if Huggy Bear appeared on sesame street or Sonic Youth listened only to no-fi hip hop”, and who are we to disagree?
• Vatican DC - Fast-rising London outfit draw their influences from The Undertones, The Buzzcocks and The Dead Kennedys and have created a fresh new sound to the excitement of both rock and dance crowds.
