Why are you involved with Sounds From The Other City? "We've known Dead Digital and the Islington Mill Collective since we started out. Initially through the much missed Escape Pod, who were always a favourite at our gigs. We all attended SFTOC last year and had a great day - especially the legendary aftershow party in the Mill. So we were honoured to be asked to get involved this time." Who's the stand-out act on your stage? "Shut Your Eyes And You'll Burst Into Flames are going to be a highlight. They're signed to Dance To The Underground in Leeds. We've tried to keep a theme of quality new post-rock, punk and experimental stuff in the bands we've chosen. It's a Sunday after all." Why is Sounds From The Other City important?
 | Shut Your Eyes And You'll Burst Into Flames |
"It鈥檚 important because there's very little, if anything, of its sort happening in the city centre. Hopefully, it will build upon last year鈥檚 success story and become a regular fixture in the calendar. Reading this year鈥檚 line up shows the good work Dead Digital have put in and the fantastic state of health of the DIY music scene. I鈥檓 personally hoping to nip out for Cherry Ghost, I Had An Inkling and Former Bullies." If you had to choose between the music of Salford and Manchester, which would it be? "As a Welshman, I'd have to say, no comment!" |
