NME on EuroSonic Festival Groningen…a Camden Crawl-type affair
“The Jessie Rose Trip, formed by Manchester songstress Jessie Rose, kicks off what seems to be a bit of a Northern UK showcase, with her homeboys Lowline and Oldham’s Twisted Wheel set to tread the pale ale-soaked floors later. If 2009 is going to be the year of Florence + The Machine, it should, by rights be Jessie’s too. Taking a pinch from Amy (nod-worthy soul-warbles), Kate (a slew of impressively quirky piano-led ditties) and Florence herself (dresses from a drama prop cupboard), she still got enough mad-eyed individuality to make colourful waves of her own!!” Jamie Fullerton, NME
“Jessie Rose has one of those voices that comes along once in a blue moon – the lazy will compare it to Amy Winehouse, while the more savvy ear will hear the potential for it to flourish into one of the greatest set of soul pipes this city has produced. Couple it with the ukulele rhythms and great piano lines, and you get something very special. If there’s any sense left in music, Jessie will be huge.” Chris Long, BBC Manchester
“Listen to her on record, and Jessie Rose sounds like a blues and soul belter of historic proportions – powerful, emotionally gutsy and scaling some incredible vocal heights…20-year-old Jessie is a true pop star of her own making” David Sue, Manchester Evening News
“The super-talented and buzz band of the weekend were locals Jessie Rose Trip. Their soulful, powerful vocals, idiosyncratic and highly original music, and fantastic dress sense spit star power.” John Robb, Manchester Confidential
“And so to Manchester’s own The Jessie Rose Trip. Are we to be convinced the hype is going to live up to the performance…but the minute Jessie walks on stage with her trumpet player, upright bassist and drummer in tow we’re won over. She looks like the combination of a vintage clothes shop queen and 50s housewife with headscarf neatly tied, matching the string of pearls around her neck and when she opens her mouth we’re hooked. From brass jazz sounds to soulful reggae beat melodies, she’s an absolute star and we bet our little Fly wings on hers being one name we’ll still be talking about come next year’s ITC. We’re satisfied we’ve caught the best act of the night and wanting to finish on a high note decide to leave it there.” Lisa Durrant, Barfly Magazine
“…her songs leaping out at us that could really work well on radio...a fresh sound, this is an impressive taster of things to come. ” James Foley, Record of the Day
Trespassers William (Seattle, US) are the duo of Matt Brown and
Anna-Lynne Williams. "Subliminally sublime and pragmatically perfect,

Order of Things, is set to be released on Gizeh Records. They will make
a church performance with special guests.
Glissando (Sheffield, UK) “have the kind of atmosphere that can
captivate and relax in equal measure- never before has tranquillity
sounded so urgent. While track lengths of over 10 minutes may fail to
hold the attention of the ADHD sufferers among us, with patience it
plays like a majestic dream. And it's one you'll never want to wake up
from." NME
Operations (Chris Anderson) is a Manchester based conceptual music
producer and sound artist. He performs and records with an array of
analog synths and effects, reel-to-reel tape and casette players, and

in approval.
