Cardiff’s Big Weekend

Posted on July 6, 2009 by nadineb

At the end of the month see’s Cardiff’s yearly Big Weekend festival. 3 days of free live music outside City Hall along with a haul of off the truck rides and shows. Let’s be hopeful for some sun this year!

We’ll be there on the friday (July 31st) for a great night of Welsh bands with headliners Kids In Glass Houses and support from Attack Attack, The Joy Formidable and Save Your Breath. We can’t wait!

Why the hype?
One head over to their myspace and we find drop dead tee's, fringes, a pink embedded logo... but honestly, don't let those fool you. They appear much more serious than they look, with a scream there and a melodic vocal thrown here, pacey guitars and heavy kicks. Albeit being one in the hundreds and hundreds of bands out there that are trying to fit into this circuit and not get slammed for having two vocalist (as typically compared to Welsh rockers The Blackout), Ella Carrera could fill that patch for when you're fed of cliché sing alongs and fancy a more mature progressive metal thrashing. Currently working on a EP, we urge you to keep an eye out for these young hopefuls.
