Who you should be fighting your way down to the front for at this year's festival

Ezra Furman (Rescue Rooms, 16:15 - 16:45)
Insightful singer-songwriter type who over the best part of almost ten years (with The Harpoons and solo) has assembled a collection of songs that are clever, witty and never forget to entertain and delight.

The Pizza Underground (Rock City Main Room, 19:15 - 20:00)
When he’s not trading meta t-shirt jokes with Ryan Gosling, (ex?) actor Macaulay Culkin is also member of this pizza obsessed, Velvet Underground parodying stoner joke turned band.

White Lung (Stealth, 21:00 - 21:30)
Exhilarating punky types from Canada who cram in rapid fire riffs and volume while still finding space for the pop hooks.

Kyla La Grange (Rescue Rooms, 21:15 - 21:45)
Strummy London by way of South Africa singer who is very much a 21st century songwriter, keeping it rootsy while gently giving her songs a modern electro feel.

Real Estate (Rescue Rooms, 00:45 - 01:45)
If you are still standing by the time they’re on, then make sure you drag yourself along to see the jangly, blissed-out New Yorkers who have released one of the albums of the year in the shape of Atlas.
