Letz Zep are now critically acclaimed the leading tribute to the music of Led Zeppelin, and, Baby, They ain’t foolin’.

Letz Zep have been featured on BBC1,  BBC2  and ITV1 and have also been reviewed in The  Sunday Times by Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson.

Letz Zep recently received the ultimate accolade, when they performed at the prestigious official launch party for Led Zeppelin's Mothership CD, In Soho, London.

Legendary Zep frontman Robert Plant commented it was like watching himself onstage, when he saw the band perform.

As he told Q Magazine in an interview, he added:-

‘I walked in, I saw me!’

Letz Zep is not an exercise in nostalgia, but of revolt against time, a heart rendering shout against mediocrity and forgetfulness, faithfully recreating the sights and sounds of Led Zeppelin at

Letz Zep is a band formed by talented, experienced and respected musicians who are all true Zep fans with a strong musical pedigree.

Its members have toured with artists such as Ozzy Osbourne, Roger Daltrey, Rod Stewart, Dr Feelgood and Uriah Heep – to name but a few.

are now set to tour South America, after a highly successful debut performance there earlier this year.

 With an ever growing repertoire, of over 50 songs, covering the entire recording career of Led Zeppelin, from the grinding rockers like ‘Black Dog’ and 'Rock and Roll' the acoustic folk style of ‘Gallows Pole’ and 'Babe I'm Going to Leave You' to the haunting melody of 'Kashmir', and the classic ‘Stairway to Heaven’

A gig by Letz Zep fully portrays the full scope of the music of Led Zeppelin.

The times may have changed – but The Songs Remain The Same.

Los Albertos

Los Albertos are a six-piece ensemble of trilby adorned ska-dance protagonists who’ve been transmitting their hi-energy melodies to the nation since their formation in 2002. Christened by the barmaid at their debut gig, their fistful of grinning 2-tone skank with a twist of Santana has drawn attention from far beyond the pebbled beaches of their hometown Brighton, leading to regular appearances at Glastonbury and Beautiful Days festivals.

Founder members Nic Tribe (Bass) and Tom Livingstone (Trumpet) formed the original line-up with Tim Herman (Alto Sax), Mark Crawford (Guitar) and Martin Andrews powering the percussion. After establishing a large and loyal local following on the Brighton circuit, Los Albertos released their first album, Los Bop, in 2004, containing floor stomping numbers Cheeky Rascal, Bossman, and Mr Chip, blueprints for their brass powered seaside ska sonics. A funked up version of the unmistakeable Grange Hill theme tune, and some soaring sax harmonies on Bei mir bist du schon, payed homage to the bands jazz and funk influences. Razor sharp compositions aside though, the band didn't want you to think they took life too seriously, hence Los Bop contained (arguably) their most bonkers song title to date: Pikey Killed My Goldfish.

THE SPECIAL Ks

It’s not often you get to experience intelligent pop music in today’s music charts especially from a group barely out of their teens. Breaking the trend are quirky 5-piece male rock-pop band, The Special Ks.

The special Ks formed whilst at music college in Brighton & quickly took the region by storm packing out local venues before heading around the UK spreading their sounds nationwide.

The Brighton based team behind the development of The Kooks spotted The Special Ks early on & booked them into a nation wide school tour where the bands appeal to this young pop orientated fans proved a massive hit & their following really began to build

Still selling out down south & now making waves nation wide, The Special Ks entered this years BREAKOUT FESTIVAL competition up against 3000 other budding acts and went on to win! First prize saw them perform at the festival in the Maldives this December, the event was broadcast on MTV and webcast by AOL.

Having been voted winners by a panel on industry figures as well as public votes online, this year The Special Ks will also be embarking on a national UK tour at a number if Carling academy venues.

Currently the band are in the studio turning their demos into the records they have longed to create collaborating with producer Julian Simmons (The Guillemotts/Brinkman) to achieve a sound that more than competes with likes of today’s chart topping international pop acts.

These young men have a talent, energy and freshness which will take 2009 by storm. Watch this space….

The Justice Force 5

The worlds greatest superhero rock band; presenting The Justice Force 5 . . .
Comprised of a half-man half-cow hybrid, a time travelling synth playing scientist, a mexican wrestling vampire, a black man
trapped in a white mans body, a hard-as-nails dark knight vigilante and a gender confused spandex clad alien, the exact origins
and history of the Justice Force 5 would fill many volumes. Suffice it to say that, despite coming from vastly different worlds
both musically and socially, these 6 individuals banded together with one common purpose: To transform the stagnant music
scene and bring joy and laughter back into the hearts of the worlds children!

"It surely wont be long before this band is national news" - Brighton Source

"Astonishing. . . Debauchery, decadence and spandex" - Whats on Guide

"Adored by the people of Brighton. . . .this is what rock and roll is all about" - Brighton music scene

TRANSFORMER

Few bands right now are riding the new-wave disco interface quite like Transformer, the Brighton-based quartet described by brightonmusicscene.com com as “future disco heroes in the making”.

Formed in 2005 by Johny Giles (vocals, trumpet, keyboards) and Craig Mack (bass guitar), Transformer really took shape when the pair moved to Brighton, quickly gaining a reputation for their firing live shows at venues throughout the city.

Now comprised of Johny, Craig, Ben Adamo (guitar, keys) and Stephane Hourdille (drums), the group’s tautly-honed grooves draw inspiration from far-flung corners of the musical galaxy, meaning that their floor-friendly sound fits as comfortably alongside DJs like Erol Alkan as does supporting Holy Fuck, not to mention their extensive run of both British and international festival performances.

Drawing on influences that include Talking Heads, James Chance, Funkadelic, and A Certain Ratio, Transformer’s sound has also pricked up the ears of Channel 4 producers on the show ‘The In-Betweeners’, where the band played live in one of the first season’s episodes.

Meanwhile, Transformer plan to release their debut single “Cinema Car” on their imprint: Public Eye Records.

Pippa Drysdale

"With an angelic voice and an obvious knack for deeper lyrical meaning, Drysdale proved to be a sweeter slice of Fiona's Apple." Drum Media, April, 2007

"Wincingly honest, her guileless insights are part of her charm, as are her warm-throated vocals and astute self-awareness." Sydney Morning Herald, September 2008

"Pippa Drysdale, peripatetic poetess and perceptive observer of Daily Life" reAKT magazine, 2006

"become entranced by these simple melodies and very direct and acute observations on love and life." Groove Magazine, 2006

Pippa Drysdale is a folk-pop artist who writes the kind of songs that reach into your chest and flick your soul. Disarmingly personal, poignant and little left of centre, her music has been described by the Sydney Morning Herald as “wincingly honest”, by Groove magazine as "entrancing" and by Drum Media as "a sweeter slice of Fiona’s Apple". We'd love to tell you were she was from, but we're not really sure - born in South Africa and raised somewhere between Australia and Zimbabwe, it seems that she did most of her growing up on aeroplanes. She has been likened to Suzanne Vega, Natalie Merchant, Jewel and Joni Mitchell - but then she's also been likened to a good bottle of scotch, so comparisons can really only go so far. She has played shows in New York, London, Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and Perth and appeared on numerous radio stations live. This year (in 2009) she is booked to play the Kintyre Songwriters Festival in Scotland, Bramfest Festival in Hertford, Paddle around the Pier in Brighton, The Aylesbury Festival in Aylesbury and the Beachdown Festival in Brighton. She will launch her new album “Fire in the Snow” in August.

The Half Sisters

We are a Brighton based band, consisting of two sisters Isadora and Freya- Rose and one half sister Fifi ! Our enthusiastic characters and pro- active attitudes combined have made a very exciting and constantly evolving band. By playing a variety of gigs, spontaneous public performances and busking, we have created an ever-growing fan base and a self-advertised crusade!

Our energetic gigs involve explosions of parasols and jumping, glowing lights and giant flower bouquets. We cannot be missed ! In order to complement our eccentric, animated personalities, we have designed and made stylized costumes, artwork and props that we use on stage. Furthermore, being sisters creates strength and unity in our performance, as well as the light-hearted and cheerful approach we have towards our audience.

The ukulele, flute and jazz drums form the bands unique sound. Combined with strong melodies, layered vocals and lush harmonies. Our adaptable sound makes it possible for us to appeal to all musical spectrums and genres. Having performed with indie rock, folk musicians and theatrical cabaret acts we have been greatly received!
So…we're an all foot stamping, arms flailing girl band and we hope you enjoy our tunes !

Soul Reality

Soul Reality are a bunch of like minded (younger) musicians heavily influenced by UK artists like Lewis Taylor and Hamish Stuart as well as the US greats. It's probably no exaggeration to say nearly all the very best young singers and musicians in the UK 'groove' community are, at some level or other, part of, or strongly connected to, the Collective. The fact that the Collective now have a monthly residency a the world famous 606 club bears testimony to their quality and reputation. Principally a 'jamming' band - much influenced by jazz traditions, every gig is different - the Collective's line up at the festival will be fronted by the explosive vocals of JOHANNA HARMAN, who has recently been signed to Grammy winning producer Pete Smith (Sting) and who has been described as 'one of the great white soul voices of her generation'.

Victoria Darby fronts the band, bringing original songs and a voice that is both sultry and soulful. The guitars present strong country rhythms, finger picking mastery and medleys that push acoustic boundaries. Bass, trumpet, flute, Djembe, occasionally a melodica and various percussion instruments comprise the rest of the band. All together they join to create the organic musical adventure that is W.E.O.
