There are many reasons to attend DHC this week:

4.Its payday (for some)
5.Its only 1 day till the weekend on Thursday

7.DHC DJs will take your requests so you can dance
8.If your in a band and creatively minded , Callum who made the video is keen to work with other musical and creative so and sos so come down and say hello!

However, heres more info for the more inquisitive of you:
THE LITTLE KICKS
We have done some good stuff.
Picked by Virgin Money as one of 3 unsigned bands in the whole of the UK to be used as the soundtrack to one of their online games.
Radio 1 demo Derby winners.
Won the Lee Jeans Scottish heat for the best unsigned bands in the UK.
You may have seen us when we supported the Editors, The Mystery Jets, The Research, The Kooks, Hal, Dogs, Thee Unstrung, Yeti, The Envelopes,Tom Hingley,The Rakes, The Duels, White Rose Movement, New Rhodes, Morning Runner, The Research, The Lodger, Sunshine Underground. Jamie T, Electric Soft Parade and the Rumblestrips.

HOWEVER, dont worry if the above arent your cup of tea, we sound nothing like any of these bands.It just looks good on paper to get the casual readers attention.
So come and see us play and dance dance dance!
Its our video launch party which was recently made and can be viewed here on myspace:
EP3 in Fopp and One Up now!!!!

------------------------------------------------------
FUTURO
Formed on New Years Day 2006, Futuro are still quite young in the grand scheme of things. 9 months (to date) isnt that long really. However, the band, Jon (Guitars/Vocals), Omar (Drums) and Graeme (Bass/Backing Vox) have really been together a lot longer. With Jon and Graeme being brothers, and knowing Omar since they were about 6 years old, the relationship between the band members is almost symbiotic.

After several years of tinkering in various bands and projects together, they finally settled on Futuro. A mix of razor sharp anglular guitar, thumping dance-able drums, and silky smooth bass lines combine at a rather fast tempo to give the listener a glimpse as to what the offspring of The Rakes, Interpol and Rage Against The Machine might sound like.

Already, the band have toured the UK considerably, gained national radio and press, supported the likes of The Fratellis, The Rakes and The Fallout Trust, played T in the Park, and released 2 sold out EPs. Not bad.

Not bad at all in fact, considering the band handle every aspect of it all themselves too. From the recording, mixing and mastering, the video making, web and print designing, street team co-ordinating, managing, tour booking, radio plugging and pr-ing - its a self contained unit, and one that is ready to, and already beginning to, take the UK by storm.

With critical acclaim for the releases and the live shows, the band have impressed critics and fans alike. What happens in the next 9 months is anyones guess, but if things continue the way they have been going, expect to see a lot more of Futuro…

Press

“exciting; a blast of sheer energy” - Sunday Mail

“the most fresh-faced, intelligent and addictive EP heard so far this year” - The Skinny

“they’re taking the DIY approach, but probably won’t have to for much longer” - Metro

“irresistible; Futuro are a frantic band with a Pythagoras bag of angles” - T-Break
“one of the best debut releases heard this year” - Lick Online

“does what it says on the tin to fine effect” - The List

Judging by the promoter's post above you'd think this would be open to all ages, but it is indeed an 18+ event.

Steve - shut up.
