The Underground Stage
“Few bands just make me as plain damn happy as Great Job! do, inventive and mischevious songwriting disguised as a melee of giddy chaos. Even the sad bits soar, banishing whatever terrible mood you might happen to find yourself in.” Gallery Listen
“Stumps make songs as dark and sharp as polished, cut granite, but that are still shiny enough for you to see your face in. It’s a looming monolith of precision beats and slicing melodies – but there’s also enough wobbling madness in there to keep you dancing wildly too.” Gallery Listen
“Sesame Girl combine urgency and free-floating whimsy, roaring and furious underneath a deceptively calm surface. For every gentle ripple of melody, there’s a far bigger wave of sound right behind it ready to take you far out to sea.” Gallery Listen
“Jet City Sports Club’s dreamy jangle also comes with heavyweight ballast, sky-high melodies flying despite the musical heft it carries. Enough to drag anyone out of the worst mood, it’s a musical updraft to rise and soar along to.” Gallery Listen
