DAVID GOO VARIETY BAND
Now with a sell out gig at the prestigious Bush Hall in Shepherd's Bush already under their belts, we're delighted to welcome back the incredible David Goo Variety Band.
"Funloving, upbeat music about the everyday life of a psychotic mind."
"David Goo writes songs about bugs, hairy men, hotels, Bon-Bon Jovi amongst other things... Be prepared for surrealism and sing-a-long from one of the most entertaining musicians on the circuit." Tastebuds TV
"Has achieved cult status" The London Paper

DULWICH UKULELE CLUB
A feast of ukulele action!
The Dulwich Ukulele Club are a large band armed with small instruments. Eight ukulele players, plus bassist and percussionist they play all original material ploughing a similar furrow to their south london compatriots the Alabama Three.
"A must see. No kidding." The Guardian
"Pick of the Year" The Telegraph
"A treat ...catch them when you can" The Londonist

KITCHENER
Rural/vaudevillian folk outfit packing double basses, squeezeboxes, melodicas, acoustic guitars and "upbeat tunes so catchy you can hang your coat on them."
"Eccentric troubadours" The Guardian

THE ACTIONETTES
A ballroom blitzkrieg of shimmying, sparkling, synchronised routines from this all-girl dance troupe, kicking their shiny white boots to 60s girl group classics. As seen on Charlie Brooker's TV show and BBC2's Culture Show, these stars of Ladyfest 2008 are not to be missed!
"With each shake of the hips, the smiles get wider..." The Independent

SHAZIA MIRZA
"the world's only female Muslim comic"
"Quite unique in modern comedy" The Guardian
"One of the 50 funniest acts in British comedy" Observer
"the Lenny Bruce of female stand-up" Metro
"Sparkling, sassy delivery" Independent

'Abrasive political comedy' - Time Out
Comic piquancy - Independent
With a full line up of comedians, wags, poets and wordsmiths including:

JOE CAIRO putting the 'angst' in 'gangster.' The one and only original hard man of poetry performs a captivating set of poetry that gives a good kicking to the myths of poets writing about flowers and clouds, sharp writing with an even sharper sense of humour.

PLUS CRAFT CORNER!
Glitters, Sparkles and messy fun for all you big kids!

and A TON o'TOP DJS!
Including Editor, Sim Kard Suzi (Offline), Dansette45 (Modtown Rockers) and Bluestreak (Beyond Fathomability) playing floor-filling ska, punk, indie, big band, 50s classics and dance.
