Big Top Stage  (2nd Stage)
Atom Live presents: Jimi's Parade & Dead Ends.

Jimi's Parade.
Indie rockers Jimi's Parade formed in 2009 in East London with front man and Sheffield songwriter Liam Burns. The sound of Jim's Parade both live and recorded is describe as raw yet melodic fused by honesty and realism. 2010 saw Jimi's Parade take to the road on their first UK tour. They played alongside French upstarts The Shoes and The Bewitched Hands On Top of Our Heads, taking in Birmingham, Bristol, London, Manchester and the Great Escape in Brighton to great reviews and growing crowds. Later that year off to France for a sellout show at Le Gibus in Paris and numerous shows throughout the rest of 2010 back in Blighty. 2011 saw Jimi's Parade booked for showcases at SXSW in Austin Texas along with their first single release, The Lover, on iTunes through Ditto Music. They are on a roll...for sure! As one Journalist said “They're walking like eagles”. Not to be missed at Playfest.

Dead Ends.
With their explosive stage presence and anthemic set-lists winning a new army of fans in London and their hometown Norwich, Dead Ends are already getting the alternative music scene talking. The band’s success is built around Adam Soper’s inspired guitar lines and Ben Mace’s sing-til-your-throat-hurts lyrics. With their first EP already causing a mighty stir, Dead Ends are clearly at the beginning of something very special.
