CITIZENS!

Citizens! are five handsome London boys who pen songs with a panoramic view. Warm, welcoming, traditional, as classy as marble, and the icing on cake is they are produced by no other than Alex Kapranos of Franz Ferdinand. They are here to reclaim pop music, stating “Pop is not a dirty word. It’s a holy one.” And these boys have the guts to do so, but with soul and integrity.

Over the last year they have amassed quite a following after signing with hip indie Kitsuné, who released their debut single ‘True Romance’ and supporting The Rapture on their UK tour. Now with new single ‘Reptile’ due for release on March 26th and with news of an album just around the corner, they might just be able to steer pop on the right path once more.

"Sheek, slinky and smart, ‘True Romance’ is a masterclass in elitist pop." – This is Fake DIY

PRISMS

This Birmingham three-piece have been luring an audience with their dynamic sound, blending deep bass and electronics with live Instruments to create music inspired by the likes of M83, Sigur Ros, Justice and Imogen Heap.

PRISMS recently finished work on their début EP with producer Al Groves (Tantrums/Pandas and People/Victories at Sea/Tropicaux) which is anticipated for release in April/May 2012 and will be supported by a string of live UK show and summer festivals.

Every Sunday, Birmingham Promoters present an evening of eclectic music.
