The Red Stripe Music Awards Final - 12th May at The Forum, London
The Red Stripe Music Award, the UK's widest search for the best unsigned music talent, reaches its climax on Monday 12 May with four finalists from across the UK battling it out for the Red Stripe crown, playing alongside the headliners, Dirty Pretty Things.
After 52 showcase gigs, in 32 different towns and cities, and performances from over 200 bands, Red Stripe reps have scoured the country for the very best of the UK's undiscovered talent. And now the line-up has been whittled down to just four bands who will fight it out for the coveted title of winners of the Red Stripe Music Award 2008.
Klaus Says Buy The Record:
This Brighton based songsman is already renowned for his elastic live show, the rousing poet combining the utterly pop with the fantastically theatrical. His Jamie T spliced with Paul Heaton manner is a jocular and whimsically lyrical feast of menacing adolescent excitement with well-nourished flashes of Get Cape Wear Cape Fly.
Kiddo:
This Edinburgh four-piece makes music so mischievously charming you're as carried away on their songs as you would be Good Shoes or dare we say, The Cure. Uber-catchy pop songs, delightfully delivered with a refreshing sense of on-stage cohesion.
