13. Straight Lines
indie/punk/alternative Hailing from Pontypridd in South Wales, four-piece
Straight Lines are further proof that if you scratch the surface a little deeper there is a rich stream of melodic indie coursing through the veins of the valleys music scene. Along with fellow countrymen
the People the Poet and
Safari Gold who have featured previously in another of these features
Straight Lines have been doing the rounds for a little while now and are steadily building a solid fan base and an impressive back catalogue. Blending a strong pop sensibility, alongside punk charge, off-kilter alt riffs and distinctive vocals, the band create a unique and accessible sound that is sure to see them turn more than a few heads when they strip things back for the
Jagermeister Acoustic Stage this year. http://youtu.be/Ddf_xJRFlBo
