GUILLEMOTS 'Through the Windowpane'
'Through the Windowpane' is the debut album by four-piece Guillemots. The band is based in Birmingham although their cosmopolitan line-up features members from England, Scotland, Brazil and Canada. Guillemots, centred around Fyfe Dangerfield's songwriting, first came to attention with well-received independent singles before releasing 'Through the Windowpane' in July 2006

'A superbly adventurous exploration of mood and melody - ambitious and imaginative'
The Judging Panel


RICHARD HAWLEY 'Coles Corner'
This is the third album by Sheffield's Richard Hawley - the title refers to a lovers' meeting place, taking its name from a now demolished department store in the city. A stalwart of the city's music scene throughout the Nineties, Hawley embarked on his solo career in 2001. 'Coles Corner' was released on the Mute label in September 2005 to great critical acclaim.

'Richard Hawley is a wonderfully unapologetic romantic. This is a collection of instantly classic ballads' The Judging Panel

ARCTIC MONKEYS 'Whatever People Say That I Am, That's What I'm Not'
Sheffield's Arctic Monkeys made music history when 'Whatever People Say That I Am, That's What I'm Not' became the UK's fastest-ever selling debut album on its release in January 2006. This success came as a consequence of the four-piece band's already burgeoning reputation, built through live shows and online even before signing to Domino Records in June 2005

'Great songs astonishingly performed. Essential'
