Acoustic Brew present The No Time Wasters + Lo Fi Lung + Yeadon and the Good, Bad and the Ugly.
Lo Fi Lung:
Lo-Fi Lung was formed in August 2007 by two Midlands musicians: Chris The Activist and Dew. Together they have developed each others material as well as writing their own original tracks, creating their own eclectic mix of electro/acoustica.
The diverse nature of their influences and broad musical experience has culminated into what has been described as “a broadly ambient acoustic driven sound.” Their lyrics are founded on social/cultural themes, influenced by natural and environmental ideals.
They have already played at many varied venues around the country whilst developing their style to fit different moods and atmospheres. From full on electronic sets to totally acoustic sets and improvised ambient jams, their music has always been well received.
In 2008 Lo-Fi Lung intend to maintain the momentum of their live success and continue recording and developing their sound. They aim to play at gigs and festivals around the country, and welcome invitations to 'come and play' If you are organising an event, festival or gig please contact them.
Venue: The Island Bar, Smallbrook, Queensway, City Centre

Acoustic Brew present Kings of the Heath + Jonny Hands
Kings of the Heath:
A chance meeting of John and Rich, former members of Stolen Honey and See Saw, whilst on their way to two different children's birthday parties led to the formation of the band. We were joined and then left by Matt Sterlini on Guitar, Patch Kite on drums and Ben Harpwood on harmonica. We lost them to Air Traffic Control, Cricket and Opera respectively. Now with Pete Hill on bass, we're a cool, acoustic combo.
Jonny Hands:
Hi, i'm Jonny Hands, an acoustic artist from Birmingham. I have an EP available if anyone would like one (for free) give me a message. I will be playing gigs around the Midlands over the summer and i am always writing and recording new songs, so keep an eye (and an ear) out if you like what you hear. I hope you enjoy listening :)
Venue: Katie Fitzgerelds, Stourbridge, DY8 3TB

Arc Promotions present Shoot Panda!?
With an emphasis placed on embodying their youth and energy in their sound, Shoot, Panda!? attempt to break musical boundaries with their hybrid of indie-esque, dancable drumming, electronic-influenced guitar tone and pounding bass; an originality beyond their years. With songs with topics ranging from lust to youth subcultures, careful detail is paid to lyrical content as much as musical content. With scathing attacks on the 'chav' and 'scene'-based 'cultures' so prevelent in modern Britain, these boys make no secret of their roots.
With influences ranging from the electro, hardcore and indie genres (among countless others), something different, perhaps surprising is guaranteed from Shoot, Panda!?; believe that!
Venue: The Rainbow, Digbeth, B12 0LD
Time: 8pm
