Third Eye Blind

Third Eye Blind is a post-grunge, alternative rock band formed in the mid 1990s in San Francisco, California. The original members were Stephan Jenkins (singer, songwriter, electric guitar), Kevin Cadogan (guitar), Adrian Burley (drums), and Jason Slater (bass guitar). The band's original line-up changed several times before the release of the group's debut album, and again shortly after the release of the band's second album Blue — at which point the band's main guitarist Kevin Cadogan was released from the band under circumstances that still elicit controversy among fans.

Nik Kershaw

Born Nicholas David Kershaw in Bristol, England on March 1, 1958, Kershaw played guitar and sang in a number of underground bands before deciding on a career as a songwriter. However, he ended up performing his own songs rather than giving them to others, and signed a deal with MCA Records in 1983, which spawned a debut single, "I Won't Let The Sun Go Down On Me", which just missed out on the UK Top 40.

Crumbe

A collision point between surf, punk and lyrical candour, CRUMBE is a Melbourne based four-piece with a sound dancing on the fringes of Neil Young and Patti Smith with a raw B52s style groove and a healthy dose of post-punk grit. Lead-singer, guitarist and songwriter Connie Ogan, Kurt Mottershead on bass, Owen Eales on guitar and Scotty Bairdle on drums bring twangy, love-washed tunes to life.
