In The past year Robert has played a Headline show at the Cambridge Folk Festival and the Clare World Music Festival. He also played Solo Acoustic support for Lulu on her last UK tour.

Either performing solo acoustic or with full percussion including a 6ft Gong, the live shows are full of sonorous dynamics with an intensity and energy radiating from the stage.

Robert is releasing his debut album on his own label. But is always looking for a dedicated progressive label to release his songs to a larger & wider audience.

Robert is also happy to be approached by labels or artists requiring material for thier own releases. Robert has an extensive back catalog ranging from country Ballads to Hardcore Rock.

Victoria and Jacob are from Cambridge, UK. They play drum machine, glockenspiel, guitar, synthesiser, melodica, laptop, and various early learning centre noise making devices, and create the most alluring electro-acoustic, indie-pop music. Already in 2008 they have shared the stage with acts such as Mystery Jets, Broadcast 2000, Josh Weller, Real ones and The Train Chronicles.

The Pixiphones are a local collective of musicians. They always vary in terms of lineup, which makes for an interesting spectacle to watch! due to the regular lineup changes, they have various instrumentation and orchestrations, but the music is allways of the highest quality.

He is an uncompromising writer whose music reveals his love for the un-official history of the English speaking people. With gentle intelligence he weaves the tradition with his own contemporary parables, his writing has been said to share the same timeless quality as Richard Thompson at his best.

Na Mara: Paul McNamara (guitar and vocals) and Rob Garcia (guitar and mandolin) have an ever-expanding repertoire from lively arrangements of Irish fiddle tunes to poignant songs and ballads for voice, guitar and mandolin. When they played for us in February, we were privileged to hear the first public outing of their new song Solo Por Tres Meses, so we know there will be more excellent music this evening.

"Anyone recovering from a 35-year coma right now might think that the days of Cat Stevens and James Taylor havent really gone at all. Young boho men with acoustic guitars and no fear of baring their souls; Damien Rice, Ray LaMontagne, Ben Harper (dont blame me for listing these types, Jacks own website does it too) its all getting a mite too confessional at times.

Yet why complain? While the format may be getting a little ubiquitous and a little too comfortable its no worse than the umpteenth indie band that sound like they were freeze-dried in about 1982. Quality, as ever will out, and Jacks got it. Its up to us to make sure that we dont push him too fast. At the tender age of 22 hes already got a fine, emotive voice and an undoubted gift for a heart-stopping chord sequence."
