British independent-music institution End Of The Road Festival has announced its annual Christmas party, scheduled for December 3 at The Lexington in London. The event brings together three emerging groups representing different corners of Britain's alternative music scene.
Manchester alt-country band Wyatt will open the programme following the September release of their debut single "Morning". London art-pop group 1000 Rabbits will also perform, continuing an active year that included their debut EP Are we friends yet? and new single "Stupid Boy". Leeds dance-punk outfit Bathing Suits complete the live lineup, arriving after the release of their latest single "Do Ya?" and earlier EP KILL Bathing Suits. DJs from independent music publication Loud and Quiet will provide additional entertainment throughout the evening.
The announcement follows End Of The Road Festival's twentieth-anniversary edition, which featured performers including Geese, Pulp and Mac DeMarco. Although the festival's main event takes place in September, its smaller concerts provide opportunities to maintain relationships with audiences and introduce emerging performers outside the traditional summer festival season.
The Christmas party demonstrates how independent festivals can support developing artists through intimate live events rather than concentrating exclusively on major headline bookings. Tickets are available through DICE. Apparently the appropriate way to celebrate the festive season involves three adventurous guitar bands, a London music venue and considerably less traditional Christmas music than most shopping centres would consider acceptable.
