Blondfire - (Set time: 11:00 PM)
Blondfire is an Brazilian/American indie pop band composed of the brother-and-sister duo Bruce and Erica Driscoll. The band have found early supporters at KROQ, 98.7, Rolling Stone, Filter Magazine, MTV and they are riding a wave of online support as they begin to make their songs available. The song "Where The Kids Are" has been heard on ESPN Tennis programming, in several network television shows and in the new Rebecca Cutter film "Besties".
The Colourist - (Set time: 10:00 PM)
Fresh off of show dates with Grouplove. Eve 6, and Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr., The Colourist is made up of Adam Castilla (vocals, guitar), Maya Tuttle (drums, vocals), Kollin Johannsen (guitar, bass), and Justin Wagner (bass, keys). The pop-fueled, indie-bred rock band (who, ironically, are not from the UK) first came together in the off-hours of an industrial warehouse in Orange County, where guitarist Adam Castilla and drummer Maya Tuttle made a last-minute decision to take on vocals -- a choice that led to unintentionally discovering the guy/girl harmonic chemistry that would shape the band's bright, anthemic signature sound.
Kitten - (Set time: 9:00 PM)
"Kitten is the kind of band that when you're hearing them everywhere in a few months, you'll remember fondly the first time you listened to them. If you haven't already, make that first time sooner rather than later–though the vocals of 16-year-old Chloe Chaidez are enough to keep pretty much anyone in the immediate area transfixed, the entire band seems to be composed of prodigies. And though they're young, they've been paying their dues and learning their craft for years. They've garnered comparisons to The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Blondie and Cat Power, but Kitten is well on their way to being the band all the new kids are trying to sound like." --Cliche Mag
Monokino (Amsterdam) - (Set time: 12:00 AM)
Amsterdam based band Monokino brings together the artistic visions of George van Wetering, song writer, lead vocals, keys, guitar; and electronic drummer/keyboardist Wouter de Buck. Monokino is touring extensively across China, Holland and the USA. Currently Monokino is touring the USA and Canada and playing several summer festivals.
Monokino's sound has been spiced up in a rather kitschy way with a combination of melodious high pitched vocals, static keyboard, rock guitar and electronic segments. In the course of a minute, you may hear New Order, Kraftwerk, Associates, Cabaret Voltaire and Freur. There's a good line in angry guitar too, nodding a bit to Hook & Albrecht. Producer Tony Visconti mixed the acoustic version of the song 'New Kid', sang by American singer/songwriter Kristeen Young.
