Catapult

From: Brighton

Influences: The Cure, The Jam, Gang Of Four, The Smiths, Joy Division, The Clash and Buzzcocks.

Profile: Drummer Seb Skillings and vocalist Sam Thorpe both hail from Lincolnshire's answer to Brighton, Skegness.

They moved down to our fair city after losing their original bass player, only to meet bassist Dominic Parry in the pub on their first day at college.

Having been broadcast on Juice FM, played The Great Escape, and with slots at this weekend's Beachdown Festival, September's Brighton Live and Manchester's In The City Festival in the bag, the trio released their debut single You Suck last month.
