~ The Lost Levels ~ I Blame Coco ~ Gentleman's Dub Club ~ Norwich-based indie collective The Lost Levels streamline alternately slinky and chunky riffs with the impeccable sheen of wailing synths. With songs tightly structured with piano interludes and time changes, there's not time or room to lose interest. With huge support from local BBC Radio and their current single 'Training' garnering attention, it won't be long before these songsmiths have snatched achievements and progressed far beyond the early stages. Being the daughter of a world famous musician, in this case Sting, Coco Sumner – AKA I Blame Coco – only means she has to work that bit harder. The opposite of workshy, this nineteen year old has already been an actress and model and began working on her music at fifteen. The result is ‘The Constant’ an album of unabashed electronic pop. Her voice is incredibly familiar as recent singles ‘Caesar’ and ‘Self Machine’ have proved, but she's a confident and future star in her own right, wielding choruses of impressive magnitude. Specialising in a blend of dub, ska and roots reggae, The Gentleman's Dub Club have been overwhelming audiences since 2006. Arising from Leeds, this nine piece keep authenticity and refreshing melodies at the forefront of what they do. They've already supported exceptional acts like Roots Manuva and The Streets as well as playing at various UK festivals and a previous slot at Latitude. An excellent addition to the Sunrise Arena.
