MIRACLE GLASS COMPANY! Edinburgh-based supergroup with their outstanding, psychedelic tunes! MGC are William Douglas (WD and the Wheel), Austen George (The Setup, The Alvas) and Andy Duncan (Miyagi, The Black Diamond Express)!

BELLA & THE BEAR! The Ayr-based duo Bella & The Bear are Lauren Gilmour and Stuart Ramage. Winners of the Best Newcomer award at the Scottish Alternative Music Awards (2015), they are a traditional acoustic sound restored with rhythmic and percussive guitar playing, blending two-part harmony throughout and an inherent flare for storytelling.

HAILEY BEAVIS - Edinburgh-based singer-songwriter whose sound is constantly evolving! A Rally & Broad favourite since the early days and a unique and powerful performer!

FAITH ELIOTT - Self-described as an Edinburgh-based maker of "sculptures, drawings, puppets, songs, poems and other such debris", Faith's exquisite voice will make yer heart sing, so it will!

RACHEL MCCRUM - She's the Broad of Rally & Broad, Calum MacDonald Award Winner (2013), inaugural BBC Scotland Poet in Residence (2015) and current CoastWord Poet in Residence (2016.) The sense that this is the perfect way to say something is never far off as you read her poems." (Poetry Scotland)

JONATHAN LAMY - poet, performer and critic based in Montreal. He published three collections (in French) at Editions du Noroit, works for the Maison de la poésie and runs the Video-poetry Rendez-vous.

RUSSELL JONES - An Edinburgh-based poet who experiments in form, from sonnet sequences to one-word poems, concrete poetry to haiku.

ATZI MURUMATSU: Atzi Muramatsu is a Japanese composer living in Glasgow and is a member of Lipsync For A Lullaby.
