Adventurous youth with mature musicality, this is poetry in emotion. All come ready tipped/recommended. 

"The London-trotting Rocklands brand, which is now cropping up all over our fair city, always with sterling guitary talent and an impeccable party vibe" (The Pulse). 

WAREHOUSE REPUBLIC :Intense, passionate, energy. Already a genuine live attraction to catch at close range. "A quadruple shot of Bourbon-soaked, music adrenalin into the flaccid veins of contemporary Rock 'N' Roll" (Musos Guide). http://warehouserepublic.com/
 THE BREADSTEALERS:Described as "Bob Dylan meets Patti Smith with a dash of Television and an English accent", fronted by the  enigmatic charisma and sweet tones of Gabi Garbutt. http://myspace.com/gabigarbuttandthebreadstealers
THE MILES AWAY PROJECT: The M.A.P. mix dark dirty riffs with clean tunes that veer unpredictably from controlled melody to improvised catharsis. The result is a startling but accessible post prog thrill. http://reverbnation.com/themilesawayproject
GST CARDINALS: Punky Hull upstarts who no longer tour with their bassist in the car boot (!). Debut EP last winter, a US label deal and now looking forward. “They have the tunes, they have the looks” (God Is In The TV) http://www.facebook.com/gstcardinals
EDIT/SELECT : S. E. London instigators co promoting buzz talent via Toejam events. Up and coming in their own rights, they play Goldsmiths on 12th May. http://editselect.co.uk
Scouting, previews and documenting invitedArtbeat connectors, Rocklands are an extended Music, Art, Word family, about compilation not competition. Something different sub-culturally. Eccentrics welcome!
