I've seen these guys perform several times before and each time they've made me dance. Their stage presence is nothing but fun, and their sound is a pretty ocean of music that will thrill and delight you before slowly dragging you out to your untimely death by its vicious undercurrents.

Special Guests Include: The Union Line, The Ringers, Satisfaction, Voxhaul Broadcast, Ride On Rides, United By Sound, Light FM, The Cheat, Astra Heights, Cavil At Rest and Hearts of Palm.
Special Guest DJs Include: Ben of Army Navy, Rob of Lemon Sun, Ian of Little Ones, Rich of Nico Vega
