T Break - Line Up Announcement

Consistently offering opportunities for smaller Scottish artists to get on the T In The Park bill, develop their onstage performance, and get festival experience under their belt, the T-Break stage has announced the 16 acts playing at this year's T In The Park.

It's one of the best line up's for a few years on the T-Break stage.  Our personal picks include Atom Tree, Birdhead, Blood Relatives, Deathcats, Fat Goth, NAKED, Secret Motorbikes, TeenCanteen, Tuff Love and We Came From Wolves.

Congratualations to all the acts playing, and if you are heading up to Balado on the weekend of 11th, 12th and 13th July, then be sure to check out as many of them as possible.  There's also a free track from each artist available via the T-Break website.

T-Break Lineup 2013

Cue industry bitching, sniping, and moaning, side by side with actual anticipation to what is generally the best stage at T In The Park.  Yes folks it's the T-Break stage!

The 16 acts playing across the stage on Saturday and Sunday at this year's 20th T In The Park have been announced.  Further details regarding day splits and times will be announced in due time, right now, let's just salivate at the prospect of some good music on the T bill.

My tuppence worth... Machines In Heaven and Poor Things are two of the most exciting bands about, Vasa, and Honeyblood will rip your ears and hearts open with wonderful noise, Hector Bizerck are making some of Scotland's finest hip-hop beats and Michael Cassidy and Fake Major are not to be missed for some brilliantly crafted indie with folk leanings.

T-Break 2012 - Let The Ranting Continue...

I wish the T-Break stage at T In The Park could get announced more often.  It's a hugely entertaining day, because of all the ranting, raving, moaning and conspiracy theories that surround the announcement of the 16 artists playing the stage at Scotland's biggest festival.  (Blogger Favourite Son kindly rounded the best up on his Facebook page if you're curious).

So I'm late to the party, but if you haven't seen it already here's the lucky (or otherwise if you are convinced of dodgy deals going on) 16 artists who are playing the T-Break stage at this year's T In The Park:

Anderson, McGinty, Webster, Ward & Fisher
Bacchanal Party
Beerjacket
Blank Canvas
Brown Bear & The Bandits
Capitals
Chris Devotion & The Expectations
Crusades
Davey Horne
Nevada Base
Open Swimmer
Randolph’s Leap
Roman Nose
TeKlo
The Machine Room
The Mirror Trap

Follow the link for each band to find out more about them.  There's some we've not heard of, some we plain don't like, and some we think are pretty awesome!  In particular check out our Scottish Fiction Session with Beerjacket, our Scottish Fiction January EP featuring Blank Canvas, and I'm sure we've played tracks from Capitals, Chris Devotion & The Expectations, Crusades, Open Swimmer, Randolph's Leap and The Machine Room on the show before if you care to explore our Scottish Fiction Podcasts.
