Since releasing her debut EP Factory in 2002 Martha Wainwright has gone from strength to strength, and her self titled album release of 2005 brought strong praise from all sides of the music community with huge cross-over appeal. The release earlier this year of I Know You’re Married But I’ve Got Feelings Too extended the appeal even further.

Described by The Guardian as the hugely underrated and greatest talent of the Wainwright clan’, Martha is the sister of Rufus and daughter of legends Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle. The newspaper goes on to describe her performances, delivered in her expressive voice, as ‘full of incredible songs, old and new, that come straight from the big, dark heart of American songwriting’.

Angus & Julia Stone are a brother-sister duo from Newport on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia.Their first EP, Chocolates and Cigarettes, was released in 2006 in Australia with the record label EMI and in the UK with independent label Independiente. They have since released a second EP Heart Full Of Wine. Their debut album A Book Like This was released late 2007 in Australia with EMI and in the UK and Europe with Flock Music.
