ON THE BILL:

Arcanaz - Instrumental Rock/Manchester

His music style ranges from ambient to symphonic orchestrated instrumental Rock. Relatively new, but has already

managed to catch the attention of radio stations and music reviewers, where he has been described as someone

enigmatic and to be watched out for.

"Johnny Houston 2008-03-28

Santana, Moody Blues Kind of a Feel

The artist delivers a sound that reminds one of yesterday's great dramatic but yet peaceful era. An era that

brought the world Santana and the Moody Blues for example. Pieces of the work are injected with tranquil

sounds that add to the experience, one to watch here...."

The Dreaming Tree - Alternative, prog Rock/Wolverhampton

This band has collected quite a gathering wherever they play. The music is unique and almost has its own style,

yet powerful.

"Now here’s something different, a Prog rock band with pop pretensions. Except that pretensions is the wrong

word as The Dreaming Tree are a band in pursuit of diverse musical expression and are not afraid to follow the

path where their creativity takes them. And in Chris Buckler they have a versatile vocalist who by turns soars

like Simon Le Bon from Duran Duran (but don’t let that put you off) and has a rare ability to intuitively find

space in between some complex instrumental arrangements."

TriskellBound - Alternative Rock/Italy

TriskellBound is a fantstic Rock Band with a substantial following in their home country Italy, Reviews and

ratings have been excellent and it is the first time TriskellBound ventures outside Italy. Very difficult to

categorize, their style mixes rock and metal and even has a gothic feel at times.

"NEVEREXPLAIN" Album reviews:

MetalDemons - (Italy): (8/10)

Rockezine - (Holland): (8/10)

RockHard - (Italy): (7/10)

Prog-Nose - (Belgium): (8/10)

VeroRock - (Italy): (10/10)

Fugitive - Classic Rock/Liverpool

Ending the Rock Part of the night is Fugitive - a true Classic Rock band. A Bikers Band playing for Bikers,

bikers conventions are sold out when these lads hit the stage. Their new album "In Transit" is a pure masterpiece.

Reviews in several big magazines have been outstanding. Fugitive are also playing this year in America and Europe,

but still have found the time to join the rign of fantastic artists on the night, crowning the Rock part. Classics

are "Saturday Everyday" and "Behind Closed Eyes" a beautifully contrasting track, which will be released on our

first compilation - a specia treat, the new version of "behind Closed Eyes" Fugitive being backed by a 72 piece

orchestra - a KILLER TUNE

Symphony Of Pain - Goth Metal/London

The music of Symphony of Pain is a blend of hard melodic rock juxtaposed with classical instrumentation.

The outright aggression of rock 'n' roll guitar, bass and drums coupled with violin, piano, harpsichord,

strings and voices. Their songs, whilst being diverse, maintain a sound that Symphony of Pain alone have

captured, dark, moody, fiery and full of angst. Top quality songwriting that spans from brooding ballads

to punchy rockers that go straight for the jugular.

- Great songs, bags of vibe - Sensible,

- The Damned. Great violins and atmospherics - Black Velvet Magazine.

- Cool vocal works...the next MTV sensation - Georges LaForet, 106.4 Belgium Radio.

Oh and how can we forget, Symphony Of Pain is fronted by Londons most famous Vampire his Lordship Val Pain.

WarBurG - Epic Metal/Germany

Founded in August 2004, the band has quickly created its own style to represent metal. Fast riffs, paired with

hymnlike vocals and a touch of folk characterize their songs. In addition the band delights their fans with a

creative stage acting on their gigs since the beginning of 2005. With this band you not only get an

audio experience but also a visual delight in form of a stage show. WarBurG has been working on a new album and

they truely have exceeded themselves with the new material - explosive and extremly powerful epic metal.

HEADLINING BAND:

Abigail's Mercy - Goth Metal/Middlands

Abigail's Mercy is a truely unique gothic metal band from the middlands, a hidden gem, which needs to come to

light and shine in all its glory. The band is male and female fronted, creating a sound that blends old gothic

standards with dark melodic metal - Imagine a cross between Sisters Of Mercy and Lacuna Coil. Abigail's Mercy

are the winners of the Swansea Bay Film Festival 2006, for their music video to the track "To Hell With Angels"

The event has turned into a mini Rock/Metal fest, so the first part of the evening is our Rock part and concluding

the evening are 3 of the finest Metal bands - a real treat. A truely explosive and exquisit lineup on the night,

bringing you a wide range of different styles within the Rock and Metal Genre, something for all tastes. Everyone

has been working hard to make this an unforgettable experience for you.
