It’s hard to believe it’s over 30 years since the birth of what we now know as Heavy Metal. Hendrix and Cream were the midwives, the likes of Sabbath and Zep the progeny. But what about the half-brother lurking in the corner, giggling, and sucking on the gas and air? Step forward please, Blue Cheer.
The Godfathers Of Stoner Rock

An antidote to today's faceless dance acts, indie by numbers chart acts, and 'oh-so-alternative' nu-metal bands. One of the hardest working bands in the country and has established B-Movie Heroes as one of the shining lights in the UK rock scene, playing to packed houses up and down the country. Indeed Radio 1 described them as "the hottest new band in Britain".
The release of the stunning debut album, Anthems For The Underdog, met with rave reviews by both the music media and music lovers alike. Forget going to the Movies to see a good film, go see the B Movie Heroes to see one of the finest bands around on the live circuit today.

There are fascinating roots to this band. Featuring the legend that is Bruce Foxton (The Jam / Stiff Little Fingers), Bruce Watson and Mark Bzezicki from one of the Greatest Rock Bands that Scotland has ever produced (Big Country), and Simon Townshend (younger brother of Pete, and member of The Who for last 9 years). THE CASBAH CLUB performed songs from all their individual incarnations when they embarked on their first tour in April 2004, which spawned the live Album EASTWORLD. Live set on Debut tour consisted of both classic hits AND some hugely popular, but rarely performed gems from a band that SERIOUSLY ROCKS. Debut studio album (of all new original material) to be released September 2005, preceeded by a May UK tour and summer of promotional touring, performing not only some of the classics, but lots of the new original material - of which the early workings of The Casbah Club have been heard at Pogomotion Central, and they are sounding mighty awesome already. Roll on the tours and album!.

She does not need to rely on the name - for her talent shines through like a beacon..The (much) younger sister of one of the world's greatest drummers (John Bonham, Led Zepplin) is an astounding singer in her own right. Q, Mojo, Classic Rock and many others have descibed her asHigh Quality Blues Rock, and this is no understatement. She has recently appeared as support on Jools Holland Stadium and Arena Tour and is soon to record and sing live with Ann Peebles. In addition, Deborah will also be part of an upcoming Soul Divas Tour with Sam Brown, Ruby Turner, and Kym Mazelle. All this in addition to touring and promoting her stunning new album THE OLD HYDE.

Xi – hard, angst-driven yet melodic rock born out of the need to be honest in a dishonest world. Reacting to a pressure-ridden urban environment not as inner city cock-rockers with a phoney veneer of rebellion – but as human beings trying to understand, trying to cope and trying to care. Anger without arrogance, pain without despair and somewhere, an un-extinguishable sense of humour and a flare of hope. Xi are a band with a passion for Rock who believe that if it's worth playing, it's worth playing well. The attitude and the energy transmitted from their stage show isn't an alternative to talent - it flows from the music and the band's total immersion in it. Guitars roar, keyboards scream and the rhythm section is solid solid solid while Daz's tortured vocals strike straight to the soul.
With a growing nationwide mailing list, invitations to return from every venue they've played, and Simon Hinkler, (ex- The Mission) as an enthusiastic production adviser Xi are a band ready to happen.
