Underbelly stages Hot Vox's Midweek dip into musical decadence with 4 of their most lip smacking bands. A diabetic coma of sound... You have been warned. EXPLODE THE TV Explode The TV Touring indie rock band mixing rock.punk and pop into a passionate cocktail with god, conspiracy theories and Banksy-inspired artwork. Paradigm Shift write songs for lovers of music, combining delicate melodies, layered vocals, consummate musicianship and earth-shaking riffs. They have made it their mission to bring together the technical complexities of 70s progressive rock, the immediacy of electronica and the adrenaline rush of heavy metal, all squeezed through the filter of their own brand of off-kilter experimentalism. TWO STROKE Back in the school days, Jonny and Charley were happily playing some tunes in the common room. A girl who ran a local acoustic night every week in town heard the pair and invited them to play the following week. It was then when Two Stroke was born. They have gone on to write many songs and play gigs all over. Two Stroke are an acoustic duo with an alternative sound. They recorded a 4 track EP which includes 3 of their own songs plus a bonus cover track of Gangsters Paradise. Look out for post of up and coming gigs and uploaded tracks and videos TOMMY ASHBY Tommy Ashby Hailing from a small town in the Scottish Borders, Tommy Ashby is continually gaining momentum as a songwriter and a live act. Tommy's rural roots are clear in his songs, with folk and blues stylings seamlessly integrated with pop songwriting to create skilfully crafted, warming and beautiful songs. What really shines through Tommy's music is how natural the songs are; they are idiosyncratic to his voice, guitar playing and personality, and this makes for an absorbing live show. Tommy's new EP, 'Jump Right In', covers a wide range of musical styles, from the laid-back Summer vibe of the title track to the driving, rock-tinged 'Play With Fire'. Tommy is supported by a group of extremely talented musicians who are integral to creating the tight, vibrant sound. With a number of live shows in the pipeline, Tommy is also currently working on a followup EP that will be ready for release in the new year.
