Voltaire Twins

Voltaire Twins - Jaymes and Tegan Voltaire have been making music since before either of them can remember, but it’s only in the last year that they’ve been actively writing together as the Voltaire Twins. Fusing 8-bit electro with nu-rave pop, the Voltaire Twins are an arpeggiated assault on the senses.
The Voltaire Twins are yet to release or even record anything more than a couple of rough bedroom demos, but they’ve already established one hell of a reputation for their energetic, sometimes unpredictable live performances.

Rizzle Kicks

Technically, Rizzle Kicks was founded in about 1996, when both members, in their miniature form, used to play together, round Rizzle's aunties house. It wasn't until 8 years later when the pair re-found eachother, after both moving to Brighton and joining the local Sunday league, by facing eachother head-on in a football match. 4 years later, they ended up going to the same college, and one day when Rizzle got Sylvester to 'Lalala' all over a track, he then realised that the kind of style Sylvester had fitted in nicely with the sound that was growing.

Lydia

Lydia was a three-piece (formerly six) indie rock group from Gilbert, Arizona. Whether expressing the vicissitudes of a romance run off course or finding one's soul deep inside his or her thoughts, Lydia crafts its sound with cadence approach that creates the equal allegiance to thunder and quiet found in Antleman's words, and further solidifies its place as the voice of today's indie rock generation.
