Andy Whitby

Technically gifted DJ and producer Andy Whitby, who has been attracting praise by the bucketload. His unique style and presence behind the decks – his sets are created using a mixture of his own productions, re-edits and bootlegs – combined with complete dedication to bringing the music to the masses has rewarded Andy with one of the biggest and most loyal fan base within the genre, resulting in him winning Best DJ, Best Album and Best Resident at the Hard Dance Awards. Hailed as the saviour of hard house, his beats are guaranteed to get you dancing.

Gareth Gates

In 2002 Gareth was famously runner up to Will Young in the UK's first Pop Idol. Instead of disappearing into 'Pop Oblivion', he carved out a very successful career for himself, having hits and travelling worldwide. In the UK alone, he sold 3.5 million records, released 3 albums and had 4 number 1 singles. In 2009 Gareth auditioned and impressed Sir Cameron MackIntosh and accepted the role of Marius, in the 25th anniversary tour of Les Miserables. He has since performed a successful 'Boogie Nights' concert tour with the legendary Osmonds and he continues a successful career in musical theatre.

Liberty X

Far from being the 'Popstar' rejects, Liberty X were the second band to emerge from the infamous TV show (after Hear'Say) and proved themselves to be a funky pop/dance RnB crossover outfit with genuine street credibility. Michelle Heaton, Jessica Taylor and Kelli Young are currently performing Liberty X songs as a trio.
