GONG
From its beginnings in a French commune in 1967, through the Virgin Records years, mismanagement, court cases, break-ups and rejoining, deaths and rebirths – GONG has always been a continuous thread of beautiful, dangerous and extraordinary music. The current holders of the flame have come together over the last seven years; sinuous bass player Dave Sturt joined just as the album 2032 was shown to the world; Ian ‘Eastwinds’ East was the next to blow in through the portal; Fabio Golfetti brought his guitars from Brazil (after working with Daevid for many years); Kavus Torabi appeared to Daevid in a vision; Cheb Nettles just sort of turned up. GONG's musically diverse world includes shades of psychedelia, space rock, jazz, avant-garde, krautrock and surreal soundscapes.

Mandy Indiana
Formed by Scott Fair (guitar/production) and Valentine Caulfield (vocals/lyrics) alongside Liam Stewart (who tours with fellow Mancunian industrialist Lonelady), Mandy, Indiana have attracted media coverage from the Fader, Resident Advisor, Loud & Quiet, the Quietus & more and gained fans amongst the likes of Daniel Avery, Girl Band and Scalping. First meeting a couple of years ago when their respective previous bands shared a bill in Manchester, Caulfield was drawn to the guitarist’s aspirations to write beyond genre, while Fair was instantly taken with the vocalist’s stage presence. Fair creates the group’s sonic environments, drawn from countless hours of an ever-expanding library of home demos and recorded ideas, before passing them onto Caulfield, who pens her lyrics in impulsive reaction and delivers them in her native French.
