'' Formed early 2007, The Fifths are a all 19 year old, Manchester-based indie alternative band creating their own, very individual sound. The Fifths’ music, with its stripped-down bluesy riffs and astutely observational lyrics, is the sound of youth in the city. The listener is taken to the heart of Manchester, and the raucous live shows more than live up to the city’s musical heritage.
'Catch Me If You Can' @ JAMM in London
The Fifths, through hard work and not to mention great tunes, have developed a good reputation in Manchester; playing well-known venues such as Manchester Academy 3, Night and Day, Liverpool Barfly and a headline slot at Manchester club night Plastic Surgery along with a support slot with Rock and Roll legend MANI at JAMM club in London. They are now keen to bring their off-beat sound, and unique take on life further afield. With their style changing rapidly at the moment be sure that their sound is developing into something a little more original than the music we are all used to hearing.''

The Fifths - Newcomers to Sheffield, these guys have played gigs all around the country and have gained some praise whilst doing it! Tighter than a hangman's noose, this Manchester foursome bring well polished, infectious and danceable indie tunes, with a little something extra! Surely one of your last chances to see these guys at such a small venue.

Gianluca - F.K.A Mastersystem, they will bring arty DIY noise-punk in the vein of Fugazi and Sonic Youth. Expect noise, and LOTS of it. Not shy of hitting things very hard, Gianluca's reputation is growing rapidly with every gig they play. No strangers to Moon Fiesta having played our first ever night, it is a real privilege to once again work with these Sheffield underground heavyweights.

Diamond Spur - A nice relaxed start to the evening. Diamond Spur are the bringers of folkish country rock. Having been going since the New Year of 2004, "The Spur" have got a really good chemistry and a great amount of drive. A group of talented musicians who obviously enjoy what they're doing and sound all the better for it! Get there early so you don't miss them!
