Description

The Woodentops need no introduction. One of the UK's leading bands of the 80's, indie hit after indie hit, toured with The Smiths, signed to Food and Record Trade Records, recorded many Peel Sessions, collaborated with musicians as diverse as Lee Scratch Perry, Andy Partidge (XTC) and Arthur Baker and are about to release a new album this Autumn.
The Blue Orchids also have a legendary status in UK indie music history. Formed by Martin Bramagh after he quit The Fall, the band released a number of brilliant singles, albums and Peel Sessions in the early 80's, toured with Nico and Echo & The Bunnymen and established a lasting cult following.
14 Iced Bears were cult stars in the C86 / twee pop scene of the late 80's / early 90's. Classic 7" singles, flexi-discs and an album on Sarah Records, John Peel sessions and a place in the hearts of indie pop fans was secure.

Plus in the spirit of the great man himself we have new young talent SKY BETWEEN LEAVES opening the show and DJs spinning Peel's favourite records and session tracks all night long.
