Les Sons du Nord returns to the UK! An exchange programme of sorts between Northern France, Belgium and Sheffield established since 2006. The event takes over the excellent Shakespeare pub, Gibraltar Street, Sheffield, from the 28th - 30th August. Expect top bands, amazing sausages and nice booze.
Sheffield is represented by Nat Johnson, Champion Kickboxer, the Yell, Yo-Yo Static and Rotary Ten whilst Curry & Coco, Frank Shinobi, Soy un Cabalo and the Appleseeds cross the channel.

"Dreamy Scouse indie-pop covered in lashings of ice cream. Infectious, jubilant and with a dance floor factor of 10. My Amiga, armed with a glockenspiel and catchy chorus melodies, break waves of pleasure-pop over the rocky shores of indie beaches and then bask in the sunshine of their own happy magic." - this aint no party uk
