Twisted pop wonders Tunng return from playing live with Saharan afro rock legends Tinariwen, showcasing a new album, And Then We Saw Land, and a new experimental spirit, alongside trademark big choruses and joyful tunes. The bill also features Montreal's highly rated The Besnard Lakes and the strung out psyche-pop of Erland and the Carnival.
www.fulltimehobby.co.uk/cms/artists/tunng www.myspace.com/thisistunngMontreal-based collective The Besnard Lakes craft a majestic, sprawling vision of guitar bombast and captivating pop experiments. New AlbumThe Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night, (out on Jagjaguwar in March) is a dark bliss-out that folds the eerie guitar epics of the band's breakthrough release into a wall of affected drones and haunting atmospherics.

Their sound triangulates Scottish folk, 60s garage and psyechedelia. Their debut album, recorded at Damon Albarn's Studio 13, an astonishing record that plunders all kind of literary and musical sources, is out on Full Time Hobby. www.fulltimehobby.co.uk/cms/artists/erland-a-the-carnival www.myspace.com/carnival
