THE BANDS:-
The Joker Pokers
The Joker Pokers are a collection of musical fringe dwellers teetering on the boundaries of good taste. They will take you on a genre mashing journey to a destination unknown featuring a sound palette of Acoustic Guitar, Slide guitar, Hammond organ, Rhodes piano, Synths, Violin and Banjo. Of course these are all mangled with a host of effects, delays and everything in between.
The Joker Pokers are fronted by Fraser Scott, who has shared the stage with the big guns around the world. He supported the likes of Artic Monkeys, Damien Rice, Snow Patrol, Band of Skulls, The Rubens, Reef, Tom Jones the list goes on. He is a master of anything stringed and gifted with some golden tonsils.

Transparent Komeleon
Herberton band Transparent Komeleon, Max Munro, Josh Ekblad and Ace Munro made a big impact on the Panda Room when they played last year, and we expect nothing less this time around. These guys play a great mix of rock n roll with a punk edge and reportedly put on a fantastic show, looking forward ot their return..
