T BREAK DOWNLOADS AVAILABLE

Fresh from providing one of the most exciting and talked about line ups at this year’s T in the Park, the 15th year of Tennent’s Lagers T Break initiative is being hailed by many as the best yet. The T Break Stage saw some outstanding performances throughout the T in the Park weekend – music lovers came, they saw, they liked. From Monday 25th July T Break fans can listen again to the live sets from each artist and download a track for free at www.tennents.com/tbreak

From the gritty rhymes of Church of when the Shit Hits the Fan to the sweet melodies of Reverieme, there was enough talent on this year’s T Break Stage to pack the tent all weekend, so this extra chance to download music from some of the most exciting new artists in the country is sure to put a smile on the faces of lots of new music fans.

Each year 16 acts are hand picked from thousands of demo entries and provided with the opportunity to play on the biggest platform for unsigned musicians as part of the T in the Park festival. The acts who rocked the stage this year were Aerials Up, Boycotts, Cancel the Astronauts, Carnivores, Church of When the Shit Hits the Fan, Conquering Animal Sound, Crayons, Discopolis, Fatherson, Lady North, Marrik Layden Deft with Scatabrainz, Otherpeople, PAWS, Reverieme, The LaFontaines and United Fruit, each of which have chosen their favourite song to make available for download, as a thank you to the fans who made the T Break Stage the roaring success it was.

George Kyle of Tennent’s Lager says: “The calibre of the acts on stage this year was unbelievable and delivered outstanding performances on a stage renowned for hosting the best of the best in unsigned talent. The feedback from fans has been amazing so we’re sure the downloads will be a huge hit with music lovers”.

About MUSIC NEWS Scotland

MUSIC NEWS Scotland was born 20 years ago when dial up broadband was still around and desktop pc’s ruled. So we did what had been done since 220 AD in China and every month put ink on a printing plate, ran some paper over it and hey presto MNS was published (okay it was a wee bit more involved than that, but the basic principle was the same!) Move on to 2011 with high speed broadband and access to the www everywhere and the future was catching up with us rapidly. The volume of information flowing into MNS HQ was more than our monthly issue could cope with, and more and more Scottish music stories of great value were being spiked (an old press term not a dodgy drink). Reaching our vast number of readers in every conceivable nook and cranny of Scotland has always been a challenge monthly but to do that more often was physically not feasible. So we have doffed oor tam o’ shanter to the future and MNS is now a weekly digital publication, and not only weekly now but twice the number of pages than our old printed friend! Along with our MNS GIGguide and MNS FESTIVALS! supplements we are now publishing news and valuable information on Scottish music news every week :) We remain as true as ever to our launch roots of 8 years ago though - MUSIC NEWS Scotland supports all Scottish bands and performers no matter what style of music you’re involved in. Our aim is to circulate music industry news and to help to raise the profile of musicians and improve communications between genres. To help achieve this copies of MUSIC NEWS Scotland are emailed to key industry contacts throughout the UK. Thank you for your support over the last 8 years and please raise a glass to our digital future with you all. Thanks for your support, The MNS team!
