Below are details of the bands. We'll also have drunk DJs playing tunes until the early hours of the morning!
GUILDEAN GANG (London/Bedford/Biggleswade)
First Windmill show for this band who have previously played sold out shows at the Barfly and Metro and shared the stage with Lightspeed Champion and the Wombats. Expect clanging guitars, post-libertine indie and a huge dollop of enthusiasm. New single 'Swirl' is making the rounds of the indie clubs and looks set to propel these guys into the mainstream, while Steve Lamacq and Subbacultcha.com have championed this band. Inspiration comes from Bowie, the Mystery Jets, the Animals and Talking Heads and we like to think that they sound like the current indie greats, only much, much better. Check out their MySpace.

ZEBEDY RAYS (Worcester/Malvern)
Return to the Windmill for this band who sound like the bastard love-child of the Kings of Leon and Jon Spencer Blues Explosion with a little bit of the poppiness of Supergrass thrown in for good measure. They cross-genres easily but never drop in the quality stakes. More info on their MySpace.
BARRELHOUSE (Colchester)
Psych-Blues outfit from Essex who have invaded London on numerous occasions and left with more fans than they arrived with. Rocky blues with a psychedelic twist, they'll blow your mind! More info on their MySpazz
STEVE BLAND ASSEMBLY (London)
Cheery, summery pop-rock from Steve Bland and his friends whose EP 'Luxembourg' was produced by Richard Wilkinson (Magic Numbers). More info on their MySpazz.
