Jerry Fish and the Mudbug Club
Jazz
Essential album: The Beautiful Untrue
Meg says; Jerry Fish is a fan of the random act of kindness, he even gave away a free single from his album, just to spread the love. It’s a welcome return for his rumbling voice and vibes a la New York Jazz.

 The Hold Steady
Post punk / Indie rock
Essential Album: Boys and Girls in America
Meg says; Daniel Radcliff recommends this Brooklyn based five-piece. If it’s good enough for Harrry Potter, it’s good enough for me.

Noah and the Whale
Indie / Folk
Essential Album: Peaceful, The world lays me down
Meg says; One of 2 sea-related band names playing, due to animal rights issues Noah may not have his whale with him this time. Or his ark. Booo!

Newton Faulkner
Folk / Acoustic
Essential album: Hand Built by Robots
Meg says; Famous for his guitar playing style of tapping the guitar and finger picking. He supported the Joh Butler Trio and used to be in a Green Day cover band.

The Saw Doctors
Folk
Essential album: If This is Rock and Roll, I Want My Old Job Back
Meg says; This Tuam band is legendary. Songs like ‘I used to love her’ and ‘N17′ will be great crowd pleasers. Bound to be a highlight of the festival.
