BRIO - Featuring Jamaican born Earl sanders from Inner Roots, who were on the scene in the early eighties. With a new gaggle of musicians, backing vocalists and horns can swell the collective to as many as nine. Influence' as broad as Latin, funk, soul and gospel are mixed with a roots reggae base to produce a 'sound like sunshine'.

THE WHOLESOME FISH - The Cajun dance folk are back with a slap of thy thigh and a 'slam dunk' of a tankard of ale on an oak table! If you know of em you'll be glad if it's the first time you've seen em you'll be glad.
