Following sell-out/packed showcases in Austin, Texas for SxSW (two years running), Brighton's The Great Escape Festival (and they'll be back again this year), Fabric London, and numerous sweatboxes the nation over, the latest spate of Transgressive Roadshow dates kicks off with five huge capacity events pre-Summer 2007 around the UK.
Artists confirmed include acclaimed Transgressive Records artists past and present – headliners The Young Knives and Larrikin Love, plus a whole bastion of music's most important, emerging new talent, also from the label – Battle, Foals, Jeremy Warmsley, GoodBooks – not to mention very special guest DJs still to be announced in the run-up to the events (the sweltering disc-jockey line-up already includes characters from EYOE and Transgressive, not to mention grindie mash-up all-star Statik & glam, international jetsetter de force, Goldierocks).
