* ISOSCELES are amazing. They’re a quartet from Glasgow signed to Art/Goes/Pop- "Its no wonder Isoscles have been tipped as The Next Big Thing." - The Guardian.

* SPORTSDAY MEGAPHONE has been likened to Sonic Youth and getting lost in the Casio section of Toys R' Us; "This dinky, lovely bedroom pop, is indie at its very best" – The Guardian

* ENVELOPES are a French/ Swedish 5 piece. They are now touring their second, highly anticipated and critically acclaimed album 'Here Comes The Wind':

"It may be too early to crown the top release of 2008, but Envelopes already sound like strong contenders on their charming, cheeky, tune-packed second" - Uncut.

"Occasionally, a record comes along and hits you right between the sex glands. This is that record….a rubber band of skewed post-punk pop genius" – Artrocker

AMPBOX is primarily a club night; but when the chance came to have Envelopes play Scotland an exception had to be made. Don't miss them play an intimate venue with such amazing support.

Yoav
+ The Planes + Carrie MacDonald

Yoav - an Israel-born singer-guitarist with a difference ......
.....the difference being that he sings and plays the guitar at the same time. Simultaneously plays it as a guitar and as percussion - uses it for a variety of beats and rhythms.
His music is characterised by his ability with a guitar and his strong vocals...
