SIMIAN GHOST: 10PM – 11PM
“Contender for album of the year” – The Guardian
I AM OAK: 9PM – 9:45PM
“If you’re fans of Bombay Bicycle Club or folk collective, Mariner’s Children, I really believe you will like this band” – The Ruckus
FANTASY RAINBOW: 8:15PM – 8:45PM
“Effortlessly brilliant pop” – The 405
RAPIDS!: 7:30PM – 8PM
“Likably hot-footed and subliminally euphoric indie disco” – Artrocker
Mick Scholefield (record label owner) – “The Heist Or Hit showcase at The Great Escape is the culmination of a hectic 6 months where several new artists have joined the Heist family and it makes me feel really proud to have five of our artists appear at our first ever showcase. From the fiery angst of Rapids! to the meticulous pop hooks of Simian Ghost, from the hauntingly beautiful I Am Oak to the raw passion of Fantasy Rainbow, its great to put such varied talent on the same bill with one common thread; the record label.”
