HYBRASIL:
In 2005 Hybrasil were selected for the IMRO Showcase, Bud Rising Festival and played in the Olympia as part of the Hard Working Class Heroes festival. Since then they have played with acts such as The Sultans of Ping, Idlewild, The La’s, Delorentos and Republic of Loose. The band released two limited edition EP's (one each in 2005 and 2006) both of which were well received in media circles. However all the above was but a dress rehearsal for the bands assualt on the Irish music scene as Hybrasil launched their acclaimed debut album The Monkey Pole in September of 2007. The album went on to feature in Record of The Year polls in The Sunday Times, The Irish Independent and The Star among others. As part of the build up to the album launch Hybrasil released their first single call God Bless The Devil which reached number two in Phantom FM's airplay chart. Since christmas Hybrasil's have been busy writing new material. So much so that they already have the best part of their second album in the bag. Their new material has built on the more electro/beat orientated elements found on the Monkey Pole and they are currently showcasing said tracks in venues through out the country.

KILL CITY DEFECTORS:
Best when the volume Knob is turned up to ear-bleeding levels, Kill City defectors mish-mash of body-shaking rhythms, killer-synths and No days off attitude is sending rabid kids nuts round your way. Hailing from Kildare’s Funkier depths, the four piece have been preaching their 24 hour party people message to the masses for just under two years, racking up celebrity fans such as Ron Wood along the way. Having recently been described by NME as "unmissable" and played support to ’Fun Lovin Criminals’, ’The Levellers’ and ’Republic of Loose’ the band have recently released their much anticipated debut Album ‘/Mutiny Sounds’/ and are currently in an underground studio writing new tracks which will be unleashed this summer."

MOLA:
Consisting of four musicians from Dublin who joined forces in January 2004 to re-engender a desire to captivate with the music not the hype. Each member brings a desire to play from the soul, this combined with honed talent and dogged determination allows for an exciting result. While the EP captures their rich melodic sound it is only during a live performance does the true strength of the songs, and band, really become apparent. They deliver an electric performance with unadulterated passion, which resonates to a time before music videos. Although notably inspired by the greats their sound is truly a mixing pot of the myriad of interests of each member. Their goal is to rekindle the sensation of rock concerts being akin to religious experiences, to forget egocentricity and cultivate a forum of personal freedom, to bury our jaded notion of rock and bring it back to the core.

Playing in such diverse places as The Cotswolds, Los Angeles and Leitrim, ITO love nothing better than rocking your world, living the highlife and picking up their cheque afterwards. Their debut album Standby was released to almost universal acclaim in the Autumn of ’07. Expect another one before 08 is out.
